Any way to fix the ridiculously bright sky?

[HuggernautNL]

I mean, it is SO bright. It's really ruining the game for me and is not realistic at all.

What's the use of volumetric clouds when all I can see is bright white sheet in the sky?

Here are two mods you can use and DO NOT set the sky setting in the game settings any higher than "high or very high"

Yes, this one works in TSW5, which I have in my game.

Yeah i used those, neither of them fixed the problem.
The eye-adaptation is super annoying too, but using the mod to "fix" it just makes my entire game super dark

Have you checked the settings in youre Monitor itself (movie / Gaming / ect
Mode???)

They work for me without fail. Here are my Nvidia CP settings. Check out the videos I added to Steam. I also heavily modded my game. My game is set to ultra within the game settings with the sky set to very high and no white out conditions.

I have AMD so no use in that panel. Also, I have a BenQ monitor with Special contrast settings, which doesn't help either.

It just sucks, the contrast is so wrong. It is both too bright and too dark at the same time, but no way of bringing it back in balance.

Can you not use the NV CP settings I showed to try and use similar settings with your AMD GPU? Also, do have the manual for your monitor where you can readjust it as needed, BenQ is a pretty good monitor.

Do you have HDR enabled on your system, I know If I turn it off on my system everything looks bad. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/what-is-hdr-in-windows-f5fbf5cb-149d-4a0d-8be1-9ed78c68d3b4
