Default Night skies

The sky at night is too bright. How can I darken it?

Thanks.

That depends on wether you are willing to do it yourself or not. You have two options:

- Pick one of the excellent environment mods out there, which provide darker nights. For example, MEVv3, OLC environment, Rik's Sh5, etc, etc

- Go the hard route and use Silent Editor to a) Add a darker graphic in the sky file, b) Tune the colours of the different daytime cycles in the file.

Pick your poison

Where and how exactly do you do that? Just telling somebody to do something doesn't help.

Be careful what you ask for---GWX--(I know it's realilistic) but gah--some nights---cant even see a flag in even in external view let alone what nationality it belongs to---makes it a little dicey in the early war years.
