Thanks Ricky!
Yes, you have a point there about the atmosphere! Frankly speaking, I have
not worked that much on that and its still in development. My intention is
however a kind of dust-saturated atmosphere, although I shall experiment
also with other weathers :-) This scene uses radiosity by the way...
I don't know about a path... In my idea there is a vast paved courtyard in
front of the gate. However.... hm, have to think about this.
