Default Realtime Info
Time in Dying Light 2 is broken up into 3 different types: Daytime, Nighttime, and Interior time. Day and night are 12 hours long and interiors actually slows down time significantly. I'll list the default values below.
During the day:
- A single hour passes in 3 minutes and 20 seconds.
- Daytime lasts for 40 minutes
During night:
- A single hour passes in 1 minutes and 40 seconds
- Nighttime lasts for 20 minute
While indoors:
- A single hour passes in 6 minutes
- Day cycle (regardless) lasts 1hrs and 12 minutes
What's Changed
Note: The values in the file is actually 2x more than it actually uses to calculate time. So the following is what they actually are in real time.
2x Time
- Daytime : 1 hr = 6min 40sec | 1 Day = 1hr 20min
- Nighttime :1 hr = 3min 20sec | 1 Night = 40min
- Indoors : 1 hr = 12min | 1 Day/Night = 2hr 24min
4x Time
- Daytime : 1 hr = 13min 20sec | 1 Day = 2hr 40min
- Nighttime : 1 hr = 6min 40sec | 1 Night = 1hr 20min
- Indoors : 1 hr = 24min | 1 Day/Night = 4hr 48min
8x Time
- Daytime : 1 hr = 26min 40sec | 1 Day = 5hr 20min
- Nighttime : 1 hr = 13min 20sec | 1 Night = 2hr 40min
- Indoors : 1 hr = 48min | 1 Day/Night = 9hr 36min
Half Realtime (Everything half real time)
- Daytime : 1 hr = 30min | 1 Day = 6hrs
- Nighttime : 1 hr = 30min | 1 Night = 6hrs
- Indoors : 1 hr = 30min | 1 Day/Night = 6hrs
Realtime (Everything real time)
- Daytime : 1 hr = 1hr | 1 Day = 12hrs
- Nighttime : 1 hr = 1hr | 1 Night = 12hrs
- Indoors : 1 hr = 1hr | 1 Day/Night = 12hrs
Files Changed: dw_weather_def.scr
Installation
PAK Version (Can have conflicts with other mods)
Drop into: steamapps\common\Dying Light 2\ph\source
Already have data3.pak?
Then change the number at the end to be one higher than what is already there.
Already have dw_weather_def.scr or want to change it to your liking?
You can open the scr file with Notepad or Notepad++ and modify the times yourself. I've placed the default values in the comment after each variable you need to change. The value is in seconds for a full 24 hr cycle. So if you want nights to last 30 minutes real time you do the following math:
30 minutes > seconds = 1800 * 24 = 43200
This is not compatible with any mod that changes "dw_weather_def.scr" !
