Enabling this makes suit lights stop working.

does this need to be installed on a server or is it only the client that needs it?

Huh. Wonder why it's not working for me. It *shouldn't* conflict with anything in my mod set...

Maybe it just didn't download correctly. I'll have to triple-check.
Whiplash141  [author] 3 Dec, 2024 @ 7:01am 
I'm actively using it, so I think it does
Ace 2 Dec, 2024 @ 11:38am 
I don't think this works anymore.

Nice now all i need is someone to wash my brand new cockpit windows I just fabricated. That or I need to find a better fabricator that will produce cleaner bulletproof glass... No idea why that details is in the game. I think it should only be temporary effects during bad weather or if damaged.

This is great !
Can you plz remove screen dirt from small grid cryo chambers also ?
Either way THX for this.

Issue seems to happen while playing the game on 4K
Whiplash141  [author] 22 Mar, 2024 @ 2:25am 
Its a visual mod, it shouldn't make discernible difference.
Your local Javelin 20 Mar, 2024 @ 4:53pm 
does it enhance or worsen the performance? cuz it's hard to tell
C3-C0 11 Mar, 2024 @ 11:24am 
I have no idea how I made it so many years without seeing this mod.
Literary the best mod I have ever added to my game! Even the darkness, makes everything look soooo real!!!
Z4CKZ33D 22 Jan, 2024 @ 6:14pm 
Lovely to see more people preferring a more subtle and LESS annoying and eye searing look in SE. AND making a mod so others can enjoy it. Thanks Whiplash!
Also, Honestly the vanilla lighting and overall look in SE looks like sh*t so mods like these are very appreciated.
Whiplash141  [author] 3 Jan, 2024 @ 9:40am 
Of course I did. Everything I make, I make for myself lol
A Moron 3 Jan, 2024 @ 2:16am 
Too dark I'll pass. Besides is seems like you made this for yourself but that's not important
Viper 31 May, 2023 @ 2:54am 
yea i did the same basically. I tried a whole bunch of the other ones, Space Got Real, Beef's, etc etc, probably 5-6 of them, then I tried messing with the environment.sbc myself for a bit... then I threw up my hands and this mod is all I use now. haha
Whiplash141  [author] 30 May, 2023 @ 11:52pm 
"So, any suggestion?"

Not really. Tweaking lighting is such a shit storm, I settled with this. The total PITA is the "eye adaptation" changes made after the DX11 update.
Viper 30 May, 2023 @ 11:21pm 
@GamerForLife Keen problem. It's not this mod. Try a different skybox. I know it sounds wack, but if things are too dark on planets and in shadow, it's because your skybox is too dark.
Whiplash141  [author] 30 May, 2023 @ 11:11pm 
k.
GamerForLife 30 May, 2023 @ 11:02pm 
Mod makes things too dark on earth like world. As the look of a full solar eclipse. I'll pass.
Viper 23 May, 2023 @ 11:51am 
Whiplash, since you've been around the block quite a bit on this, do you have any recommendation on how to get my daytime shadows (shadows cast from trees, buildings, etc.) to not be a completely black abyss every time?

I'm also very experienced and I know that unlit areas are heavily influenced by the brightness of the skybox, which is sad because I really like the old DarthBiomech insane resolution Milky Way but everything is just blackness with that skybox. For now I'm using a sorta-bright blue-tint skybox with a blue sun to match, and it looks nice at night.

But still those damn day-side shadows are nearly black holes.

So, any suggestion?
Whiplash141  [author] 10 Feb, 2023 @ 6:39am 
nope
kinngrimm 9 Feb, 2023 @ 2:41pm 
does this edit the skybox?
AkagiVoid 12 Jan, 2023 @ 1:11pm 
Thank you for making this mod Whiplash141 , its so wonderful. ^w^
No mar vignette or chromatic aberration. :3

Personally I think game devs dat have vignette and/or chromatic aberration effects enabled with no option/settings to turn it off should be FIRED!!!
(Since my field of view is 60 and I like 2 keep it like dat. ^w^
And those effect are really ANNOYING 2 meh. >w<
I have quite a few games because of it to. TwT )

@Jailbroken, This annoys the hell out of me, too. Would be great if it were fixed.
Jailbroken 5 Feb, 2022 @ 4:19pm 
Eye adaptation while in first person in the cockpit of a ship is too much. The world outside gets too dark. Can you make it so it looks as bright as it does outside?
Kaito 30 Jan, 2022 @ 5:32pm 
Have you tried using a spotlight?
AXEL_X 12 Jan, 2022 @ 4:54pm 
Your mod makes so that is basically impossible to see on the shadow of a mountain or a tree. Like i know that the default setting are exaggerated but someone! If you could give us an option to have a little bit more brightness or whatever it is needed to see better on planets would be wonderful, thank you

@Ksarper:

No it isnt: https://i.imgur.com/zcsQyEf.jpg

If you are using a skybox mod, that is the issue. It changes the same settings.

Now sun is a lamp, great idea :emofdr:
Cypress 25 May, 2021 @ 4:00am 
Why does everyone wants to fly in darkness, collide with asteroids is fun?
Whiplash141  [author] 10 Apr, 2021 @ 4:07pm 
I have 0 idea
sp0q 18 Mar, 2021 @ 1:00pm 
Holy crap, Petram is still trying to kill my eyes :/ it's such a shame cause it's hard to look at vanilla graphics after your mod.
5. 18 Mar, 2021 @ 12:10pm 
Will try that, thank you Whip
Whiplash141  [author] 18 Mar, 2021 @ 12:00pm 
It is already pretty low, but LCDs seem to render text like the surface of the sun. The way to make that less blinding is to set the RGB of the text to something like 100,100,100
5. 18 Mar, 2021 @ 11:37am 
I still notice quite a bit of bloom on LCD's, any way to tone that down more or not?
DigiToss 15 Feb, 2021 @ 1:47am 
Hey whip, you able to put this on mod.io ?
Reknot 16 Dec, 2020 @ 7:53am 
Whiplash141 your Changelog and comments gave me a chuckle. Good work <3 love the mod, is essential to me now adays.
Whiplash141  [author] 15 Dec, 2020 @ 4:04pm 
Updated eye adaptation settings, bright areas (like Pertam's atmosphere) should no longer give you a tan when you look at them.
Whiplash141  [author] 12 Dec, 2020 @ 9:57pm 
Again. Eye. Adaptation. Settings. Have. Changed. I. Need. To. Do. More. Testing.
Netherspark 12 Dec, 2020 @ 7:43pm 
There's definitely way more bloom and glow effects with the mod running (did you check the screenshot I linked?)

Maybe the game is bugged in this latest update and isn't showing the vanilla effects properly, making the mod look like it has more bloom by comparison?

Whiplash141  [author] 12 Dec, 2020 @ 2:20pm 
Apparently this new level of eye adaptation is the only thing keeping the absolutely fucked vanilla lighting from shitting on the atmosphere of the new planet that was just added, so I will need to do more testing.
Whiplash141  [author] 12 Dec, 2020 @ 2:18pm 
> This mod ADDS exessive bloom and glow effects to LCD's, thruster flames and the sun etc, but without the mod there are virtually no bloom effects at all.

No it doesn't. It is the stupid levels of eye adaptation that they added to vanilla that you are seeing. Every variable to do with bloom, brightness, or ambient lighting that this mod touches has been reduced.
Netherspark 12 Dec, 2020 @ 1:47pm 
I'm having a very confusing time with this mod. It seems to be working in reverse ?

This mod ADDS exessive bloom and glow effects to LCD's, thruster flames and the sun etc, but without the mod there are virtually no bloom effects at all.

I even tried it on a newly created world to make sure nothing was interfering with it. But again, without the mod everything is flat and kind of lifeless, the sun is like a plain white disc. But when I add the mod suddenly everything starts glowing.

Made a quick comparions screenshot here: https://i.imgur.com/nVIC7Ki.jpg
ZeRoXTi 5 Dec, 2020 @ 3:42pm 
you are my Hero man, i have a 1440p screen and with the sh!t Keen did it looked like 720p because it was a blurry mess.

That means your download is corrupted a unsubscribe, wait for a few seconds then resubscribe to redownload
Ashley 25 Oct, 2020 @ 3:42am 
I've been getting a MOD_CRITICAL_ERROR with this one lately, is this mod working with latest version of the game?
