is there a way to adjust brightness for nights?
I'm using the cinematic excellence ENB but the nights are way too dark and I can't see anything, and I'm forced to sleep through the nights in order to play. There doesn't seem to be an option to adjust brightness or gamma. Is there a setting I can change in the ini files that would only adjust brightness of night? Because day time it's already pretty bright.

Thanks!

After that my nights where to bright and I adjusted that under Environment and ambientlightingintensityNight. For me the effects were changed in realtime so it was easy to fiddle around with it until I had my perfect settings.

That mod is just to make the nights darker but he is looking for something to make them brighter. Even the brightest option from darker nights is still darker than vanilla nights, as you can see here: https://staticdelivery.nexusmods.com/mods/1151/images/191-0-1448207842.png

yeah totally.
However my night is not the vanilla night. I think I would have liked the latter. Mine is pretty dark because of the ENB I'm using.

That information may be helpful to others who have the same issue and find this thread there is an unsubscribe button at the top of the page you can use to no longer be bothered when someone posts to a an old thread.

Also I have seen some that said they were just a few minutes old only to change to 2015 etc. after I posted due to some occasional bug.
