I have been messing around with it for most of today with some test scenes, just 2 basic materials... nice and simple, so far so good!!
Give this a go! It will be interesting to see how it goes in a complex scene with materials, post your tweaks! :D
Ozone: .01
Water: 4
Turbidity Co: .01
WL Exp: 1
Reflect: 32
Scat Asy: .8
Sun Temp: 5777
Power: 1

Is it worth adding a category on mxmgallery or on the Maxwell Think sites for the new sky presets?

Can this setting be saved in some kind of format and imported like the materials do in the scene? it will be great a sky library.

Sky hdr file cannot be saved from 3dsmax, right? Just from Studio.
