It's a bit off topic but anyway...

it is because of settings in the lights.cfg that you have in your stock files. my mod do not overwritte that. if you want i will take a look and i will tell you what sensor parameters you must to lower a bit to have the same results as in my screenshots
Yes, I found the cause for my weird moon glow and all seems well now. I fiddled with lights.cfg file and changed couple of things back to the values of Env 5.0 mod. Some mod must had changed the values, it's weird because they were like ten times higher... But thanks for the help again stoainm!

And that wasn't in anyway caused by your mod just to make sure to everyone!

I tried high setting and in the daytime it's really too bright . I think that the low setting is good, at least for me. There could be even lower setting, just a slight chance.

You guys have this problem with to much bright in the day time because you have enabled the dark interior wich use an high value for LightShaftsWeight - i tested my mod and managed to make things work ok only with MO and ENV5. I will make the mod compatible with dark interior also.

Default Archive corrupt

Hi stoianm,
I've been downloading the updated version several times, but I'm constantly getting corrupt downloads. I only can extract 2 high version + the pics in Documents, the rest is garbled, and I would prefer middle or low, as the high version seems a bit too bright at broad daylight. The light clouds almost merge into a nearly white sky.
Could you pls look into this, maybe upload a corrected package, so I can test the other versions, too?

TIA

Hi I am using 7-zip when for decompresing files - never had problems with:

http://www.7-zip.org/

If you speak about this picture:



it is normal because it is MEDIUM FOG DAY and i was looking in to the sun direction.

here is used the same high version of the mod but in NORMAL WEATHER:


So do not worry in the high version the bright is NOT to high in day time

Hi!

I got it working using Zipgenius. So it's not a corrupted file, propably just too long names for some programs. But I'm still having the same problem that I had yesterday, it's like the mod changes the overall brightness so days are more bright too. I can see this in the "Low version" too. I'm curious how did you get those nice screenies with High setting??? I'm using the Dark Interior compability mod. Will try couple of things now...

That is true that the mod change the overall brightness and you will have more brightness in day time also - but i fixed this from the lights.cfg In the pictures posted bellows i have used dark interior and my version mod compatible with it. If you guys have to much bright in day time maybe you use another mod that change the lights.cfg.
In case that you observe to much bright in day time using the stand allone high version of the mod i sugest to install the version compatible with dark interior mod even you not use this mod (seems you have installed another mod that has changed light.cfg)

In your case Rongel i have not a clue why you do not have the same image as i have in my pictures - if you installed the version compatible with dark interior means that we have the same lights.cfg also

Thanks pal,
Got everyrhing extracted correctly with 7-zip now.
Going to compare the various versions, which will suit my system best. My lights.cfg is from Environment 5.0 (not stock). I'll be back!

Thanks for that info. It means I can probably save some time by not testing the compatible dark interior versions and focus on the regular ones only.

PS. Don't you ever sleep?
