Does this exist? (darkness mod/hack)

[LordBanxter]

I was wondering about this earlier today, and does anyone know of the existence of a 24 hour darkness mod or hack?  I know it would vampires more than a little cheaty (which is kind of the point) and I don't think it would be that hard to code in, then again, I'm not a code wizard either.  I was just thinking along the lines of a 12 hour clock, where at 6 am, the appropriate "dawn" lighting would start, and then at 7 am, it would be dark again.  Or possibly something involving the day/night button in build mode.

But as I've said before, I'm not a code wizard, so I'm unsure as to the ease and/or simplicity of such coding.

IIRC, someone asked about this a little while back, and the day/night switch hour was set.  The duration of the sunset/sunrise lightshow has been hacked, but not the time either begins.

IANAM, but it might be possible to hack the daytime brightness, temperature, and/or vampire-friendliness to have the daytime be effective nighttime.  OTOH, as anti-daylight as Pescado is, I'd expect he'd have tried such a thing before.  Its non-existence might well speak to its current impossibility.

Aside from not knowing what IANAM stands for, that makes sense, and you're probably right.

IANAM = I am not a modder (probably ).

Generally it's actually "I am not a moron" but modders and morons walk hand in hand so either works.

I've never tried this, but maybe this will work for you.
