About this mod

Increases how long day/night cycles last by 2x/4x/8x/Realtime.

Changelogs
Saw that no one has included a mod that increases how long time actually passes aside from one extreme so I'm here to provide it. 

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" !
