How to make Night more dark an realistic ?

Featured Replies

I know this has been ask in the past . But how to make the night texture look a little darker with out having to use ENB,SweetFX or tweaking your monitor settings? I know shade helps a little but what about the water color how can i change that grey kind of look you get in the night?

Not sure of the solution, but when FSX was released, and we were still using those big heavy tube monitors, and the FSX night was black as black. If it was a moon-less night, and mountains or towers were present, then watch out!

All i need is to change the water from looking to gray at night

if all you want is to change the water then FS Water Configurator (FSWC) free and available here, good little program

 

Other then that something like ENB would do the trick but FSWC would let you focus on water.

Turn your gamma down in the nvidia control panel. Easiest and most effective way.

Does anyone have an ACTUALLY good ENB settings package? All the ones I've been trying out make night so dark that you can't even see the knobs in your aircraft...

Check here an choose between these two http://www.realenvironmentxtreme.com/forums/index.php?/topic/15329-24-hour-enb-download-included/

 

Scroll down to the bottom you will see some good screenshots to how it might look at any hour during the day , afternoon , night etc...  I was using the last one americanflyer82 posted in the link i give you .. Hope it helps

 

Try using sweetfx or ENB. 

I tried all that in the past ENB crashes when using menus an sweetfx also, that is why am looking for a normal way to make night a bit darker an for the water am using REXE textures.

Yep a lot can be done just by tweaking that 1 slider

I would highly recommend this combo of sky textures and ENB settings (right here on AVSIM). I have been using it and I find it's great.

Interesting, I'm going to give this a shot tonight. I had to remove both ENB and SweetFX due to constant CTD's. Does this effect day in any way?
