this mod is awesome , is there posibillity to increase the day instead of 6am to 6pm to be 6am to 8pm

Thank you for light version. I was a little annoyed that my character could see in the dark with the night vision gene, but I fucking couldn't.

i'd love if the darker version could get 1.6 too!
Mac 24 Jun @ 11:44pm

Oh, right
Kipyat 24 Jun @ 5:11am 
Will it be updated to 1.6? Everyday without this mod is like hell.

This is great, just what I needed. The base darkness mod achieves immersion, but I also can't see almost anything myself at night. This lets me enjoy the darker atmosphere without squinting constantly.

How is this mod compared to Lighting and Weather Graphics?
Xavier 14 Jul, 2024 @ 2:16pm 
Man, I still find this to be too dark (especially for content creation with variable viewers displays). Is there an even lighter version? Or maybe a possibility to configure the brightness in options? I love the homey feel of it when everything is lit up later in a game but early on it's just not usable. ;(
BingoBungus 29 May, 2024 @ 10:31pm 
I'm switching to this one because I realized I kept fiddling with my screen brightness and... well I guess realistic darkness is a bit TOO dark if I can't see either. :P
ThottyNathaniel 31 Mar, 2024 @ 11:20pm 
This is going to be quite the ask, but what if the amount of darkness was based on the biome's tree spawn rate. I live in a forest and it gets dark, but I know a grass field doesn’t nearly as much, and an ice sheet would sometimes be brighter based on season, it would be mod compatible if there was some spawn rate number, cuz obviously counting trees is a bad idea
xTRACKERx 15 Mar, 2024 @ 9:24am 
nice one :-)
Sand Dog  [author] 15 Mar, 2024 @ 2:15am 
Updated to 1.5!

You're welcome :}
xTRACKERx 24 Feb, 2024 @ 3:27am 
rly thank you :-)
psionicSuplex 30 Mar, 2023 @ 4:22pm 
I loved the original idea but the mod I had originally installed made it so dark I couldn't do *anything* for half the day.
This is a nice middle ground.

@submeg
Thank you :)
Sand Dog  [author] 2 Feb, 2023 @ 3:39am 
@soglasen666
Yeah, I noticed that as well. Will check what I can do when have some time!
soglasen666 23 Jan, 2023 @ 11:11am 
This mod seems to not to play well with a 'sun blocking' event.
submeg 13 Jan, 2023 @ 3:47pm 
Thanks Wemd, the "light" version is a perfect level of darkness.
Sand Dog  [author] 13 Oct, 2022 @ 2:59pm 
Updated to 1.4!
Muad'dib 7 Aug, 2022 @ 10:49am 
For some reason braziers seem way brighter than all other lights in my game. Is there a way to fix that?
Eyelikegiants 14 Jul, 2022 @ 9:44pm 
This is great! however I still can't see as much as I'd be comfortable with at night. I couldn't find this mod anywhere in the settings and was shocked it must because there is none. It would be fabulous if we could edit the darkness amount even slightly. Or even just a disable/enable setting. I don't want to close and reopen my game right. Regardless I love the way it looks and I hope someday I can tweak it to be compatible with my bad eyes.
✠ DFSpecter 15 Apr, 2022 @ 10:28am 
I actually appreciate this, because in the OG realistic darkness mod, I can't plan anything for the pawns to do cuz I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING, which leads to nights being disengaging and boring af (which, tbf, might've been the point but idk).

Thanks m8!
Emperor Status 17 Feb, 2022 @ 4:21am 
oh hell yea the lighter dark
[PBS] Kafka Rambo 27 Aug, 2021 @ 4:20am 
Would be great if there was a mod option to set the hours of darkness
i eat cigarettes 26 Aug, 2021 @ 4:26pm 
great mod, is there a version without dusk? having everything suddenly turn purple does not seem very realistic
Ari 10 Aug, 2021 @ 8:35am 
Is it normal for eclipses to be brighter than at night?

I'm going through this on a tundra map, and every time there's an eclipse it's a lot clearer.

The statuses remain the same, for example (0%) vision and all that, only a lot clearer than it should be.
Celgaming 28 Jul, 2021 @ 8:26am 
This literally makes the game look amazing and lights fun to use. Should be in vanilla.
[PBS] Kafka Rambo 28 Jul, 2021 @ 3:17am 
Great job, much better without dusk
El Psy Kongroo 21 Jul, 2021 @ 10:39pm 
love it

You're welcome :}
Monika 16 Jul, 2021 @ 4:10am 
Thank you for the update!
Sand Dog  [author] 16 Jul, 2021 @ 3:59am 
Updated to 1.3!

No purple dusk anymore! :D
Monika 16 Jul, 2021 @ 1:12am 
1.3 please, this version is much better imo than the darker one :)
ALE199 14 Jul, 2021 @ 3:03pm 
1.3
Ферзь 12 Jul, 2021 @ 7:03am 
@Wemd о ты русский). Да я снес нахер этот rimthreaded там исключения с хештаблицей, видимо он в ней потоки хранит и при обращении по ключу нихера не выдает. Я просто подумал вдруг тут какой то сложный алгоритм а он его по ебанутому параллелит. Попробовал большую часть модов вырубить, все равно ему что то не нравится, ну и хуй с ним)
Sand Dog  [author] 12 Jul, 2021 @ 4:05am 
@КГБшник
Не знаю, первый раз слышу про RimThreaded, так что ничего сказать не могу

Вообще Realistic Darkness, это маленький патч, который только только подменяет цвета, так что с вероятностью в 98% он ни с чем конфликтовать не должен
Ферзь 12 Jul, 2021 @ 12:31am 
Can this mod initiate any problems with RimThreaded?
Stanley Aech 9 Jul, 2021 @ 2:36pm 
Did everything just get so much darker?
Rams0505 8 Feb, 2021 @ 8:34am 
@Strakarix can you do that patch for the dark version of this mod too? I cant stand the pink/purple hue.
Rams0505 8 Feb, 2021 @ 8:34am 
Can you make a version where nights are darker than this light version but a lil more lighter than the dark version of these mods? Rn nights are too light in this version and is too dark in the other version :/
Zalec 15 Oct, 2020 @ 11:20am 
Did you changed dusk colour to less purple?
Fluffy_Fractalshard 23 Aug, 2020 @ 9:43am 
thanks for your reply! and it does work no worries ;)
modmanager just says 1.0 is not supported anymore but it still works..
