Description
This mod brings TWW 2 lighting closer to TWW 1- darker and less colorful.
It should be compatible with any mod, except other weather mods obviously.

What it does, specifically:
- I balanced the environment color palette to use less red and eliminate the orange glow in maps.
- I tweaked color intensity for specific areas.
As a result maps in Bretonnia and Lustria are more lush and green while the vampire counts and chaos wastes use darker, more saturated colors.
- It lower excess post processing effects to allow greater view distance and may improve FPS for some users.

What it doesn't do:
- The mod won't get rid of the sunset preset in maps but it will give most of them a light pink hue instead of bright orange..
- The mod will not change the actual brightness level, feel free experimenting with the "Brightness & Gamma" setting in the game's options menu.

If you encounter a bug please report it here, write the name of the map or if playing the campaign- the region.

Special thanks for Kelstr, creator of Improved Weather mod for TWW 1 and the grim and dark version for TWW 2, for inspiration and giving me some idea on how to mod map colors.

@Edorn This Mod is absolutely perfect (so far), how did you manage to fix the over saturation and cartoonishness of the base games units and buildings ? i wish there was a grand campaign mod as good as this.

@Noah in da House it does not affect the campaign, give it a shot.

Does this also affect the campaign map or can I use the Day Night cycle mod alongside this?
