    Reminder: This is not one of my mods. I've made the existing Darker Nights and its related mods compatible with 4.0 and nothing more. It is being shared as-is. I will not be taking suggestions or doing further work on it, as I'm busy with my own mods already. If you want to make suggestions in hopes of someone else being kind enough to do it, talk about it in the Forum tab, not here.

    Per the original author's permissions, anyone who wants to is welcome to make improvements, add-ons, patches, etc. If you intend to do serious work on this mod, please get in touch with me and I'll happily add you as a contributor so that you can post updates and co-manage the page directly.

    This picture is how I handle comments. I will shamelessly hack, slash, and delete:

    • Questions or discussions about something already covered in the description, changelog, or sticky posts.
    • Installation and user errors. If you have more than one mod, you should be using Script Merger. If you get an Error [content0] type message when loading the game, it means you haven't merged your scripts correctly (or at all).
    • Complaints about "broken" mods if you're using a mod manager or skip the instructions.
    • Obnoxious comments such as "but why?"
    • Posts demanding changes or saying you would have done it differently (no one is stopping you; please customize the mod for personal use however you like).
    • Resolved personal issues or lengthy threads that have gone way off topic.
    • Please post any questions or comments about installation, merging, problems, conflicts, patches, and related mods under the Forum tab instead.

    If you have been a victim of my brutal censorship practices, there's no need to take it personally. You are not alone! Please consider where you went wrong and try again.

    You can also send a DM or reach me on discord. I'm always happy to help nice, polite people if I have the time and know how.

    I absolutely love it! It works perfectly with Friendly Meditation and a lot of different mods :)
    BTW. I modified the water to  make it darker at night with Let the night water darken

      What game settings are you using for your lights? Because right now my lights kind of have a dusty looking "cloud" around them, and I'm wondering if this mod is affecting my lights, I have the mod set to 70. So what GAME settings for lights are you using?

      Is there any conflict between this mod and Let the night water darken ? Script Merger seems to tell me they share a same file (.env file), is it a problem ?

      Nesyouz Yes there is, you need to replace files in the \modDarkerNights folder with the files from Let the night water darken.
      Set priority 1 for "modDarker_NightsWaterFix" and priority 2 for "modDarkerNights"

      @darkezowsky how did you install "Realistic Rain"? The description of the MOD says that you need the MOD "Phoenix Lighting Mod" for it. But this MOD is not "Next Gen" compatible atm.

      It also changes the same 2 files (blob0.bundle and metadata.store) that the MOD "Let the night water darken" already changes.

      sorry for my english i don't speak the language.
      I have no way to get the mods Let Night Water Dark and Realistic Rain to work. Could someone put the steps one by one on how to put these two mods together, thanks

      If you do that you will be overwriting the bundled content of this mod, which you shouldn't be doing unless those files have Incorporated the content from here...which is not the case.

      Script Merger indicates now in the left 'conflicts panel' that 1 mod is not mergeable. I guess this is just a warning, not an error.
      Am I right ?

      Yeah, you just have to give your preferred mod priority. Or learn how to edit the bundled files to manually merge them  :-)

      Perfect ! Thanks again. This mod is really a game changer. With an OLED screen and HDR activated, it is absolutely stunning, especially in Novigrad.

    If you can't seem to modify the starting darkness hour and end darkness hour or have locked sliders at 0.
    Just make sure to select Custom config for every section and not enable default global settings.
    Click on Custom in the mod menu at the top of zone, this will enable you to tweak the darkness levels themselves.

    Hey Teresatiger, for someone who didn't want to give much post release support, you've been one hell of a helpful author.

    Thank you for bringing this to us in 2023. Blessings be upon you.

      Haha thank you. It's hard not to get sucked in and want to help, especially if someone is nice about it. Of course, we'll say nothing of the million other comments that were sent to the chopping block LOL.

    Do you hate it when nights in videogames literally looks the same as high noon - but just with a moon in the sky?

    Do you hate the feeling that nights are never eerie in videogames because  they look the same as daytime but just with a slight nineties horror-B-movie blue tint in the scenery?

    Do you hate it when you are not  noticing any difference between day and night in a videogame, and when not being able to see the moon as proof  for nighttime (for example during cloudy weather) you have to look at the ingame-clock to check out if it is day or night?

    Do you want your nights  eerie and creepy and fully of mysteries and dark corners,  and the cat potion for night vision finally making sense and being actual useful?

    Congratulations, this mod is for you! :)
    FINALLY immersive, realistic eerie nights full of darkness, mystery and monsters.

    Swamps,  with torch.
    ?

    Cat potion.

    Finally one of the BEST mods is back for the next-gen Witcher.

      I don't see why it wouldn't but I couldn't say for sure! May require a fair bit of merging for one or two scripts depending on what that mod changes. Try it and let us know?

    Thank you for this mod!

    Curious, you mentioned its a transfer - how easy would it be to update certain older mods (i.e. what steps did you take, tutorial, etc if you're willing).

      Normally this is meant to be installed on top of atmospheric nights... any special install instructions for making it work on darker nights? Maybe this mod author can just merge in these changes to his mod?
