Great renders! Awesome model! Congrats!!!
Thank you for sharing your project (and all your effort) here. It´s so sad that nasty people tried to attack your system, trying to play with your feelings....awful!

Cheers

Thank you very much ! It is a big project, and I have not as much time as I would wish, so it grows up slowly.

I love the new Daylight system, it brings more life in renders.

Thank you for your idea about the opacity map for the clouds.

EDIT : I have tried, but with the sun behind, it is difficult to see if the effect is really different.

New render :

Ye, I agree, the effect should vary a lot depending of the sun orientation and the kind of clouds in your sky (cumulonimbus, altostratus, etc.), as some of them are much more "sharp" shaped tna others, and can block the light and throw shadows better.
Anyway your project is looking awesome, keep it hard!!

(BTW, although glare and bloom are our exciting "new toy", don´t get too crazy with the post effects )

Yes, I will try to not over-use the bloom and glare ! I gave them much strength in this last image, because I wanted to see if the glare worked fine on the shinny parts (not only the direct facing lamps or the sun), like the front left chromed part of the bus. I could composite with an image with less strength and keep only the max effect on small details.
