problems with graphics corruption and weather

After installing the Grey Wolves mod, I had corrupted sky textures. During what should have been daylight, I saw the sun and light effects on ships/waves, vrew faces, etc but the sky itself was black and starry.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the game, patched it to 1.4b, then installed Grey Wolves. I then went and tried to remove the "realistic" deck gun and sinking mods be editing the zones.cfg file to revert the hitpoint values, armour, and floatability ratings. I also used minitweaker to cut down on wave size and water murkiness and to edit ship's hitpoint values in their .zon files in the DATA/SEA directory.

After having done this, I again noticed some weird glitches with the weater/sky ingame. I can't see how my editing could affect the weather. It's not nearly as bad as the midnight sun effect, but I noticed some heavy banding and smearing effects.

Anyone else having problems with the weather and graphics anomalies?

What video card do you have? Does the driver need updating?

The problems are probably caused by your GPU or the drivers it has.Try updating to a more recent driver if you haven't done so already.
