Hmmm... I'm gonna have to experiment with it more. it's true that the more
reddish lighting gives off a more warm feeling and that's not what I wanted.

And for the fog... well I have to use it because otherwise the map will be
too hard on performance. The Far Z Clip Plane thing is really useful.

Thanks for the suggestions guys
