Thanks, AQT. I thought about using the lighting from Theed but I've used the sky dome, and lighting from Polis Massa instead. The lighting from Theed could be better though, so I'll try it out.

Hmm, shouldn't there be clouds of tibanna gas in the sky?

Added a few clouds, so hopefully it's an improvement:
I also tried out the lighting from Theed which looked good, but unfortunately the frame rate dropped to around 5fps:

Ahh, that's a shame, it looks great with Theed lighting.

I agree that does look great.

I wonder why the frame rate dropped though. If anything it should go up since the Theed lighting doesn't enable shadows. Maybe it's the back lighting?

Guess Alert:
However, that lighting looks really, really nice. Just a quick question, but what was used in the hallway area to the left to make the lighted appearence? Shadow regions?

The interiors of the Bespin buildings by default have emissive color enabled so cast lighting and shadows have no effect on them.

Theed's lighting is working now without the frame rate drop, so I'll be keeping it in. All I did was add the naboo sky dome and fx, instead of loading the Naboo lighting with the Polis Massa sky dome. I'll also be keeping the Polis Massa sky, so I'll have three random skies in the map. I might load them in different modes though, as there are now two night skies.
Edit: With added clouds:

Wow, the first map I ever tried making was a nighttime Bespin map, but I never finished it. Looks good, though.

Haha, the third image reminds me of Black Hawk Down. And it's about time someone posted that last image! So it was you who was leading the formation? I thought it was just some random guy!

Ah, good times (even though it was only a few weeks ago). It was all fun until that a-hole from the DDC clan showed up...
