Scene.dat, on the other hand, seems to control the positioning and timing of lightning flashes. Strangely, though, I can't get Silent Editor to open the file, so I can only see it using a Hex editor. I have highlighted the lightning section, but there appears to be only two values that need changing, MinTime and MaxTime.

Actually I was referring to the scene.dat file (via S3D) but I was wondering/figured there was also something in a the envsim.act file.
