?????????
If I get your question correct, you want to render a sunless sky - 'cause of clouds....

atm, (hopefully atm :D) Indigo can't create random cloud-skys, so there are two ways for that.
One is extremely hard and not really senseful: modell clouds yourself.
the other one is much better:

use HDRi

no i think he only wants physical sky without sunlight.
Afaik the only way to do this is to set the sundir to "0 0 0". (open your igs/xml with an editor and change the numbers) - will give a dawn-like sky without sun.

Thanks I trying it with your sugestions...I don´t want clouds, only a day without sun, like when you put only an environment color in vray or turn off direct sunlight in maxwell... but without HDRi, something very simple.
Thanks again :lol: :lol:

You can't use environment color in current Maxigo version, but it will be included in my next release. Currently you can do it manually by replacing sky code in xml with background code. I don't remember the syntax at the moment. Maybe someone posts it for you...
