Sky Texture file

Can someone tell me please where the generic sky texture file is that Fifa accesses for most stadiums? It always bugs me that the weather mode "clear" shows lots of clouds....I want to replace this with a really clear blue sky! I have a good texture file for this. Some custom made stadiums have the sky in their texture files (stadium_xxx_1_textures.rx3) but some don't....and certainly generic FIFA ones don't. So where are the sky files in this case?? I need to know where they are, thanks. :)

(p.s. I have done lots of texture editing with Fifa 14 stadiums using rx3 editor to replace files so that I can use certain stadiums for other clubs or nations but still make them look like they are for that team (change logos, colors, etc). It just baffles me where this generic sky file is supposed to be and also certain adboards but that's another story...)

LOL, one hour later I found it! It's in the data3.big file. There's a folder named "sky" where all the various sky images are in rx3. format. The question is: how can I make sure that a match or team will access a specific sky rx3 - can this be done just like with the adboards? (Change it to the team id where it says 0) Will the game accept that?

In that data3.big are also other generic files - finally the adboards that i was looking for! (folder "genericad") And also very cool, the pitchwear pattern. (In folder "pitch")
In order to get the game to access specific files from these folders I assume I can/must use the RevMod or Jenkeys File Loader? I'm not that proficient with this yet (and a bit confused to be honest) so any help/hints would be appreciated. Thanks!

To give an update: I just replaced all the standard sky or pitch rx3 files with the ones where I uploaded my own png files. I put this in the sky and pitch folder and regenerated. After that I always have clear blue skies now in the game.... :) (and for pitch I had really run down ones, with more yellowish color....I found this perfect for African matches. :dance:)
If anyone's interested in my clear blue sky rx3 files feel free to download here:

Couple of examples:

sky 5.png


sky 7.png
sky 8.png


But be aware - after regenerating you will ONLY have these blue skies now. So backup your big files or game folder first. And if you want to vary it it is probably best to change the png in the sky_1_0.rx3 file or rename the other ones into the 1_0 file. It seems that Fifa accesses this one the most. Not sure why? All in all, there are 14 sky_1 rx3 files (for clear skies). If it is possible to achieve (random) variation via lua method or adding IDs for teams or competitions please let it be known here. It didn't seem to work for me but maybe I did something wrong - and after all I only used this so far in combination with the Infinity World Cup 2014 patch.
