skydome w/ atmospheric effects
Author
I am looking for a DirectX tutorial on how to render a skydome with atmospheric effects so you can have dawn/dusk, daytime, nighttime, etc.
Does anyone know of one or good sample source code?
Thanks!
Have you seen this or this? There pretty cool.

Sky-rendering techniques is the ultimate thread for any sky-rendering related questions (please don''t necro it). I have some papers regarding "good" atmospheric effect coding (changing colors, aerial perspective), but I don''t have the original links. I can give you the titles, though:
"A Practical Analytic Model for Daylight", by A. J. Preetham
"Modeling Skylight and Aerial Perspective", Arcot J. Preetham
"A Practical Analytic Model for Daylight", by A. J. Preetham
"Modeling Skylight and Aerial Perspective", Arcot J. Preetham
Lol, I wonder how many people have that thread bookmarked.

I read the article you pointed to at:
http://freespace.virgin.net/hugo.elias/graphics/x_posure.htm
It gives a formula of brightness = 1 - e (-light).
However, how do I apply this to my world?
Is this the ambient light or the color of the skydome, or do I apply it to something else?
Thanks for your help.
