Lights out at night

Post » Tue Oct 29, 2013 2:14 pm

Hello everyone,

I need help finding a mod that makes the day-lights go off in houses with windows at night -- or finding out that there isn't one, in which case I'll consider making it.

I've been through some of the awesome lighting and weather mods, such as CoT, RLO and ELFX, but none of them really works for me; I'm after something simple, not a whole-world-overhaul type of thing. Ideally, I'd like a mod that does nothing else but remove the lights that mimic daylight from such interiors where there are windows, in a way that doesn't make the interiors pitch black, and changes the appearance of the windows so that they are no longer bright-white at night.

Is there such a mod? Or a mod that does this, but not too many other things?

If not, is there interest in this idea at all? Would you use a mod like that?

Thanks for any and all answers.

I think someone made a Day/Night window mod, but don't know if they changed the interior lighting. I don't see the mod, perhaps it was a WIP, but here is this one that has promise

My whole issue with Lighting mods is the authors never seem to calibrate their monitors from Torch mode before they make the changes, so they are way too dark in the interiors. Speaking of which, on my monitor, the stock lighting is not as harsh, so have you calibrated at least the gray scale of your monitor?

Between the above and an in game Gamma tweak, the interiors are just dark enough for me.
