Thank you, Jezzer and Kissing for your assistance. I will try to tweak the above mod and see how that goes. : )

 ^ That's the first thing I do before anything else, Jezzer. I'm not that much of a noob 

Btw, I'm almost done with the mod and have managed to tweak the nighttime hues specifically to my taste.

The only problem is that  I want my town to have longer sunset/dawn/sunrise hours. I would love for my town to resemble those hours for the  majority of the day, if possible. Please help if you know how to do this. I assume I would have to adjust the sunset/sundown speed in order to achieve this?  : )

Anyway, thanks again everyone.

There is nothing hampering the process except for my inexperience with editing mods. I only use s3pe for merging files and I am truly lost when it comes to editing ini files (even after researching the subject), so I came here hoping for someone with more experience to point me in the right direction. I am confused as to which ini files/values to modify in order to adjust the nighttime hue of the mod.

Nevertheless, as you said, the best way to find out would be to try. Since the creator created three versions of this mod-brighter, balanced and darker-I am going to compare the brighter sky shader parameters ini files (I assume those are the right ini files to adjust?) with the dark version of the mod sky ini files  and adjust the values from there. I've tried comparing the bright version of the mod's ini files with the game's ini files but I don't where to begin (as there are numerous ini files in the game's folder).

Thanks again.

I have contacted the creator, both through email and through the original thread. However, they have not been on that site since the beginning of April, and I have no inkling as to when they will return. Therefore, I thought why not ask a forum with an influx of brainy individuals for help/input while I wait for the creator's reply.

On MTS there is a great lighting mod called Outdoor Lighting Tweaks v2.0a by dDefinder http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=367164

This mod is beautiful and I really want to use it ( mainly for the sunset/sunrise effect) but the hue during the night times hours  is too dark for me (even with the bright version of the mod) and the stars in the sky look huge and out of place.

Is there a way to edit this mod in s3pe (or any other program) in order to have night time lighting closer to the game's default lights?



Thanks : )
