Is there anyway to get the clouds to look like its going into the earth in the far distance? There always seems to be a gap between the earth and clouds.  ???
      I know you can put them really low, but I want them to stay high and still no gap.

I don't think there is anyway to make the clouds appear like they are over the horizon.  This is probably due to the fact that the video card is only rendering to the horizon and no farther.  That is the only thing I can think of that would keep the clouds from rendering past the horizon....

You can't have clouds in the horizon because that would eat up all your framerates... rendering distant objects is quite challenging
