Realistic Darkness (This mod was an unofficial update of Realistic Darkness V4.95 B18 mod, but now has the same name and levels of darkness only).

Not dark enough...

@Eruzhar, agreed.

This would be awesome if there was equipment for personal, smal range lights. Even customizable range, directional, etc. There is a mining mod that does some of that, but I don't feel like using mining helmets on everybody just because it's dark.

Mod unfortunately doesn't account for eclipses
Cool._.Crayon Jun 2, 2022 @ 11:32am

I alos noticed on the Regrowth Core page, they say they: Here you can find a list of all mods that have patches already included in the mod: (Seems it is patched only for the (WD) version and not this one.

- RimJobWorld (yes, really!)
- Vanilla Fishing Expanded
- [WD] Realistic Darkness
- [WD] Realistic Darkness (Light)

**Edit yep, even though I moved this mod to the bottom of the load order, I noticed during a strong gale (weather from Regrowth) the night does not get dark, it looks like vanilla night. So there is a slight conflict. Not sure if any other weathers added by regrowth are affected.
Crash2323 Nov 21, 2021 @ 9:38am 
Been using this mod and loving it. For some reason, I started to notice, night would stop getting dark. Happened on my PC and Laptop. As a fix, I would disable the mod, load my save, continue for a day/night cycle, then re-enable the mod and it seemed to do the trick sometimes However, it does not stay working. I wonder if I have a load order or mod conflict possibly with the Regrowth mods, in particular with any weather changes since this mod does affect that? Is there any particular place I should put the mod in a load order? I am trying almost at the bottom to see what happens. This is my mod list in order (I use Mod Manager): Note I also have ReShade installed. https://pastebin.com/Jkc48xXJ

Is this compatable with Regrowth?

didnt realise how dark my colony was until i installed this. treated them to some new lights haha
[Fallen] Sun Aug 5, 2021 @ 3:44pm 
So I've subscribed to your mod and enabled it via Rimworld. But once I load up a new colony or load a save, I don't see any changes to the darkness (literately zero change) (I've also changed the mod load order and that had no effect) I'm pretty sure this Mod should be working as I am getting no Mod conflicts, so have I overlooked something silly? (Your mod certainly looks impressive!)

@Pryd As in super dark during the day? You CAN in a sense. The only way being to make everything during the day as dark as at night. Technically you could switch day and night with just using weather defs alone. I don't know whether that will only effect you and not your pawns.
Tanelorn Jul 28, 2021 @ 8:01pm 
@Willow The mod added a medical effect that dropped certain stats if the pawn was in darkness. Ingenous, really. I worked great! But it's not in the workshop anymore.

Can you make the caves perma-dark(unless lit)? if its too hard to do then nevermind.
Prydzen ᛋᛟ Jul 27, 2021 @ 5:54am 
how does it interact with dark torches?
Willowisp  [author] Jul 26, 2021 @ 4:57pm 
@kenwud I'll put up something about gshade at some point. currently trying it out.
Willowisp  [author] Jul 26, 2021 @ 4:55pm 
@Tanelorn I actually had that built in at some point but removed it to keep this mod as slim as possible. Unfortunately i don't have any backups from that era and I can't figure out which def has light level accuracy in it. You can use this mod to change weather related accuracy however.
Tanelorn Jul 26, 2021 @ 3:16pm 
There used to be a mod that would actually give your pawns debuffs for darkness. It worked really well with this mod. I can't find it anymore... does anyone else know about it? I would also like to suggest that such a mod should be an optional part of Willowisp's mod.

Never have I wished for flashlights in this game more than with this mod. I raided a site at 0h and I couldn't see a thing. 10/10, attack at dawn.
katie kat Jul 9, 2021 @ 10:08pm 
i love reshade, just want to add theres a fork or something called gshade that seems to be a slightly more intuative way to install reshade and also manages reshade installations
Willowisp  [author] Jul 7, 2021 @ 11:49am 
Updated for 1.3 and everything seems to be working well. I don't know if reshade is still a thing for rimworld. If it is i'll leave this as-is; otherwise i'll adjust it. The aim of this was to make dark places darker but to leave light places alone. Let me know if it falls short of that ideal.
katie kat Apr 11, 2021 @ 7:44pm 
one of the oldest mods in my list but also one of the best. working with current release?

Hi, Love your mod. Plans for 1.0?
Sand Dog Oct 6, 2018 @ 7:22am 
I updated the mod for myself and decided to share it to people who wants to play it as well:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1531882210

I will delete it if the original authors ask me about it or after the original 0.19 update.

@Kelstone -The darkness still works if you load the mod but (at least for me) having the mod activated mutes my rain sounds. Would love to see an update to this great mod.
