@Rubini : the ambientlightcolor is NOT doing the trick at day (i am talking for this: edit: this idea just came: lets create an envcolors.dat which has a totally darked (0,0,0) ambientlightcolor value during sunny DAY and see if the detection ranges are reduced like it is night! if this is happening then my 'theory' about the sh3's engine reading the 'night' maybe is correct !)
....BUT i discover that by setting ambientlightcolor to 0-0-0 at night (without changing anything else at NYGM's visual sensors) i am getting MUCH MUCH better results !
i haven't made any tests the last week (becuase i am spending my free time for u-boot-hahd stuff) but i am almost sure that ambientlightcolor (and probably all other 'lights' during night like the 'SunReflectColor') if reduced (to zero if necessery) are giving 'good' results ! need to make more tests ,all that i am saying here are something like 'observations' and not facts .
try it ,without changing anything at your sensors settings ,reduce to zero the ambientlightcolor and SunReflectColor during night and tell me : are you getting better results ? |
I tried it some days ago but no luck. The results continued inconsistents, just small better than before. I never get that good result as if we had a real fix on the visual sensor.
BTW, IMO, too dark nights in game will make the game (in ours houses) unplayable in normal conditions - i mean, during daytime, night with lights on, etc. So, I am not sure that using a so dark nights in game as unique solution (if it works) for vampire nights is a good solution. Will perhaps fix something but will narrow the game environment options to the players.
