Is there a way that I can change the color of the sky in my RPG map?
I cant use a Skybox because there are way too many clipping issues involved (I.E. the sky looks like a physical object moving through mountains as the camera moves).

So is there a way I can use fog or anything like that to change the color of the sky instead of using a skybox?

Hold Ctrl and roll your mouse wheel down to zoom out of the clipping (assuming you have a mouse wheel). The sky box won't affect actual gameplay.

Fog is always a good idea to use in any map, even if it's unnoticeable. It does improve visibility a little bit, and it really does make the terrain look nicer when it is noticeable.

With triggers, Camera - Set Camera Field -> Far Z

Its not working. I can still only see up to the far lantern in the picture attached to this post. (Please look at the picture attached in case FarZ was not the right trigger for what I am trying to do)

EDIT:: Nevermind, its working, I just had to adjust a few things
