Resource pack discontinued. I no longer can keep up with updates. Fro now on you can use this pack where ever you like it without asking me for permissions in dms. Thank you to everyone who used it.

This pack adds a custom sky feature to your Minecraft day night cycle feel. Additions such as custom ambient sounds will make walking thru mines more creepy. Lighting strikes more intense. Rainfalls not obtrusive. Sounds of water streams more natural and many other additions.

Main focus is put on overall environmental feel and look. There are minimum changes to block textures.
