Experiencing Day-to-Night Lighting Transitions

Tracking Sunset and Dusk

The shader introduces soft adjustments to natural world lighting and smooths out transitions between different times of day.

1. Find an elevated overlook with a clear view of the horizon.

2.

3. Watch the horizon and the terrain around you as the light shifts. The transitions between bright daylight, twilight, and full darkness progress smoothly rather than creating abrupt brightness drops.

Evaluating the Night Sky

Once dusk concludes, observe the nocturnal lighting across your world:

• Look up at the night sky to inspect the softly adjusted atmosphere, designed to stay true to the original game's visual feel.
• Look across the surrounding landscape. Ambient nighttime illumination receives soft balancing, keeping nearby structures and terrain visible without stripping away the classic night ambiance.
