Gijs (?) created special micro-management dialogs which are different for 
default and atmospheric scattering (and Rembrandt?). In the release branch, the 
available options are just landmass and water if the atmospheric light 
scattering box is ticked.

As of today, that should be expanded to give you control over

* landmass (0-5)
* transition (0-5)
* urban (0-5)
* water (0-5)

followed by the old Mie, Rayleigh and Density sliders shown as long as Advanced 
Weather is off.

Last is the aircraft section, which doesn't do anything. Procedural texturing 
is controlled by the first two.

Do you have the shaders, i.e. does anything interesting happen if you set 

/sim/rendering/shaders/transition to 5 by the property browser?

> Are the regional textures automatic?

Regional textures are automatic if you use Materials/regions/materials.xml and 
enter a certain region. If the regional set has dedicated landclass declaration 
(such as shrub in Hawaii), it overrides the procedural textures, i.e. you can't 
see them yet.
