This mod is in 3 versions - all 3 versions are made on a red base color wich will give you more or less an martian effect:

stoianm realistic color exterior mod (high color)v1

vanilla



low realistic color



middle realistic colorcolor



high realistic color




Note: You can really see the differance on deck if you switch to TDW free cam (using the TDW GUIs). All filter setting go back to standard - so you can see the improvment.

Note: If you are using stoianm realistic color exterior mod (high color)v1 in naight time the visibility is setted at low - to keep the realistic efect - if you find that to dark you can use scope filters - HUD - in the TDW GUIs to increase the vizibility like in the pictures posted below:

Open the HUD - scope filter



Enable the scope filter to increase vizibility in night time



You can use the HUD - scope filter to increase visibility in night time in obs pericope, attack persiscope and UZO

Here is before/after for reference





Nice mod for sure, I really like it. Is just maybe a little bit too redish. Is like being dawn all day long. But I like it very much, so many thanks.

Thanks! I think that the middle version might be for me. What really makes this exciting for me is the mention that there is more visibility in night-time. Totally black nights start to bug me even if it's realistic or not. You need to play the game in pitch black room to see anything. So my real wish is to get more brighter nights, is this the mod for it? And does somebody know if the moon affects brightness? In reality, when it's full moon, nights are really quite bright, but I haven't seen this in SH5.

No the purpouse of the mod it is not for making the nights brighter. i think that moon afects brightness (you can easy observe that in game) because it is a sensor that you can modify to have more or less sun/moon brightness.

i tryied to increase this sensor for very high brighter but the nasty thing is that you have very nice brighter in normal weather and when is fog evrething is start shinning like in las vegas (Trevally observed that ) and you get blind - i not played yet with the sensor for fog (sober is good at that) but i think if i can corelate the sensor fog with the sensor for stars lighting maybe i will be able to do a very brighnet view in all weather conditions.

If you are looking only for high vizibility in night time i will sugest you to try the other mod of mine:

maybe will suit your taste

cheers
