Access Time-of-Day Settings

Open the shader configuration menu and find the Lighting or Time section. Skylumine Shaders lets you adjust how bright or dark different times feel.

Adjust Daytime Brightness

Increase Daytime Brightness if your world feels washed out at noon, or decrease it if sunlight feels too harsh. This changes how saturated colors appear without affecting gameplay.

Fine-Tune Night Vision

The Night Brightness setting controls how visible your world is after sunset. Raising this makes nighttime exploration easier without needing constant torches, while lowering it creates a more challenging, atmospheric night.

Balance Shadows

Adjust Shadow Darkness to control contrast. Darker shadows create drama and depth, while lighter shadows make the world feel more open and less threatening.

Test Across Seasons

Play through a full day-night cycle to see how your adjustments feel. Pay attention to how colors change during sunrise and sunset—these transitions should feel smooth and natural. Revisit settings if any time of day feels too dark or too bright for your preference.
