The lighting, eye adaption and weather are very lacklustre in 7DTD is a nice way of putting it. this mod drastically improves all of those especially night time making night actually night and indoors at night pitch black (you will need a flash light) the nights are genuinely terrifying now and actually have a scare factor now.

I spent 3+ hours tweaking a perfecting this and IMO it is night and day more fun and terrifying to play especially at night. The lighting, eye adaption and weather are very lacklustre in 7DTD is a nice way of putting it. this mod drastically improves all of those especially night time making night actually night and indoors at night pitch black (you will need a flash light) the nights are genuinely terrifying now and actually have a scare factor now.
The weather is a lot more stable now with less chance of rain, there's more wind, there's a lot more cloud coverage most of the time witch really adds to the gloomy apocalyptic atmosphere. tweaked snow biom to have a bit less fog when it snows and a few other tweaks to the other bioms.
day time lighting is also slightly better looking more natural and flat not so vibrant and bright the indoors in the daytime still gets darker but no where near as much as the fun pimps have tweaked it to which imo i awful to play with as you can literally walk into a lit/ opened window room/ house and Boom pitch black, then take a couple steps forward and it bright again. the transition time has been increased too so it looks less noticeable when the eye adaption happens.
the eye adaption is actually backwards in 7dtd as is should get brighter as you walk into a room as out eyes adjust not get darker.
