    Unsure if this is related, but the update seemed to set my environment settings to false. (Easily fixed by setting it to true, of course. Just noting it.)

    Player on Blight told me today of having "black sky". I advised to try "/setpref environmentsystem true". Problem was thus resolved.

    I have had no issues with this but for best match of Istaria and my eyesight I run that pref at false permanently.

    My thought was perhaps the unexpeted shift to "false" status might have resulted from application of new client to Blight Shard today.
