Wow, looks good !
I will give it a try. Thank you Sir !

I think only the red is too bright.
In real the red lights are very low and dark this is for nightseeing.
But the rest is great.

adjusting the [HDR Exterior] file Code effects night/ dawn / day/ dusk all at once. =Lights.Cfg file within SH5

no seperate editing on this.

took me a while to blend it all to the right amount that i liked.

this code below controls the outside lighting rays and bloom.

..................................
[HDR Exterior]
SunMultiplier=1.0 ; multiplier for the sun color
EyeAdaptationTime=0.5 ; the time it takes for the eye to adapt to the new exposure
GaussBloomDeviation=9.4; ; Deviation factor for the Gauss Blur & Bloom
GaussBloomMultiplier=2.10; ; Multiplier for the Gauss Blur & Bloom
StarEffectMultiplier=0.20; ; Scale for the stars effect
LightShaftsStrength=0.04
LightShaftsDensity=0.7
LightShaftsDecay=0.90
LightShaftsWeight=2.20;1.00
LensFlareBlur=1.7

inside the uboat light effects bloom
.................................................. ..............
[HDR Interior Submarine]
SunMultiplier=1.0 ; multiplier for the sun color
MiddleGray=1.0 ; regulates the scene exposure
MaxLuminanceScale=1.80 ; controls how much the eye adapts
LightOffset=0.103 ; a larger amount means less glow from the bright pass
EyeAdaptationTime=10.0 ; the time it takes for the eye to adapt to the new exposure
GaussBloomDeviation=1.0 ; Deviation factor for the Gauss Blur & Bloom
GaussBloomMultiplier=0.70 ; Multiplier for the Gauss Blur & Bloom

LightShaftsStrength=0.08
LightShaftsDensity=0.8
LightShaftsDecay=0.98

uboat bunker pen
.................................................. .....................
[HDR Interior Bunker]

i did tweak also the bloom , but not added to much. many people dont like it when its increased to much. also brightend the uboat bunker.

...................... have fun tweaking, ...

i like mine

enjoy all.

Fine mod sir. I tweaked your files a little bit for myself. Your mod counters the nvidia problems with sun glares a little bit which is fine.

[capthelm]

nice lighting effects at last ..

[capthelm]

made another small video clip to show case the mod and screen below simply breathtaking now.

video clip


screen ...dawn, breaking through clouds.

[Maltro]

Very nice work! Shame that the sun always looks like a ball but it is really better than stock!
Thank you! We are waiting for next version!...

[capthelm]

wont be any next version sorry, am happy on screen what i see.
last time i looked, planets and the sun where ball round.

looking at my screen above you can see the burning halo as well around the sun.

[Maltro]

Yes I haven't seen it. I am impatient to test it. Is ti jsgme ready?

[Baleur]

I just tried this mod....
OH MY GOD....... So beautiful.. Sunsets are amazing behind the clouds, and the moon too.. Now the clouds actually appear darker when the sun / moon is behind it, rather than being as white as other clouds that recieve sunlight from an angle.

Amazing job. Maby the godrays are a BIT too long, they kinda flicker off when you pan your camera away from the sun, maby have them end at the exact distance where the camera "turns them off"?

[Will-Rommel]

That looks really pretty. Can you resize your picture so it better fit as wallpaper?
