I downloaded the hi res sky pack and extracted to my LiveForSpeed\data dir as instructed. (I do know how to use winrar btw :P)
I have no sky texture at all! (see attachment)
Mind you, I'm not a very observant person, and the textures may have looked like this before I extracted the high res sky.
Anyone know what the problem might be?

its a lag or a temporary video error

Unfortunately not.
I've had a good look through all the options, and can't find anything like 'low detail sky' or anything. Is there anything in the cfg files that might do this?

you should download a fresh copy of lfs and retry.

I managed to fix my sky. I suspect it was something in cfg.txt

Geez.. not seen a sky like that since I got hit by a tornado! LOL

That's actually the the FZR is flying.
