@Buffy: Thanks for the screenshots !

Nice, kinda like it.

The sky and stars are ugly though. Would be cool if you could if you could add something in the distance to give a better backdrop.

Oh, I don't know, they go rather well with the map's overall retro look... Party like it's 1999!

The Unreal series also had some of the best looking and believable skies in the history of fps gaming.

First of all notice how subtle the effect of the stars is and how many there are. When you look at the sky there's this illusion that it's an actual sky and not a dome with a texture applied to it.

Also notice how the stars becomes less visible the nearer it gets to the lava giving the illusion of a horizon. The extra cloud/steam effect in the distance also adds to the effect.

For some odd reason I always look at the sky first when I play a game...

Yes, I know, the skydome is too small. But this is a substractive map (all converted maps with xtremexp's converter are substractive), and so I can't make the skydome bigger.

Remake it as additive... It doesn't look very good at all as subtractive..

Is it possible to replace the skydome? The editor crashes when I try to open the map so I cannot really play around with it to see if there's a possible solution.
