How can i make the night times brighter?? can i turn up the ambient lighting or something?

i have tried a couple mods but the night time is still way too dark for my screen..i cant see the horizon or ships or even the ocean around me from the bridge!

Which mod you use? If you use a GWX look at this thread http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=107562

Hi, I use this mod:
http://files.filefront.com/Marhkimovs_LIGHT_NIGHT_modrar/;7620163;/fileinfo.html
with GWX, should be ok for any 8k atmosphere.:yep:
Cheers.

maybe im not installing them correctly??


i jusy put them in the mods folder and then activate them using jsme or whatever right?

That's correct, they should replace the ones in the various SHIII folders, Marhkimovs 3 skycolors files should replace the 3 in the SilentHunterIII\data\Env folder, none of them make it that much brighter but this is about the best I've found.:yep:
I may investigate myself later to see if I can improve it.
Cheers.

thanks, yer id say its because of this lcd's contrast ratio, my older lcd has a higher contrast ratio and is better at night where as this one just looks flat black from edge to edge :S, every other game looks beautiful mind you...
