Hi,

I've a customer using Performer 1.0 on Crimson VGX who have some troubles
with The Earth/Sky model.

It's a flight simulation and when flying with a pitch for instance greater
than 45 degree there is some refresh troubles with the horizon.

A workaround seems to be to increase the far clipping plane, but when
trying this the frame rate is divided by 2 even if i am looking the sky
(Pitch > 45 degree) with no object or terrain in my view frustrum !!!!.

Any help, input, idea will be appreciate.

Regards
