P3D v4 night lighting help

Featured Replies

I have been searching for a long time to get the best graphic / texture / preset for a tool for the best experience in P3D v4 when it is dark outside.

I have to say that the differences in P3D v4 between the day into the night are huge in the day it looks amazing, but in the night it looks awful. I don't know why the differences are so huge. 

Can someone share a good graphics / texture / preset for a tool to get the best experience in P3D v4 when it is dark outside ?

I have: PTA, TomaShade, Reshade, ORBX Light, ENVSHADE and 4k monitor.

If someone can help me how to get the best experience in the night it will be great.

Sorry about my English it is not my first language.

There is a slider adjustment for night brightness u can set before u install Envshade.  I think default setting is 13.

I use from R&D Preset. To me it looks very clear, night looks realistic and works for every season.
