Description
PSA: THE NIGHT MAPS ARE REMOVED FROM THIS MOD! THEY ARE NOW CONTAINED IN A SEPARATE MOD.

This mod adds (not replaces) several new skydomes/Environmental Lighting Maps to both the Tactical and Avenger map. This mod will change the lighting of the tactical and Avenger maps, when these maps are present.

If you have issues with this mod or spotted a bug, please report it in the Bug Report Thread. If you want to provide feedback, whether its good or bad, then post in the General Feedback Thread.
If you are thinking of downvoting this mod, please provide feedback first, so I know what I should improve on/did wrong.

WHAT THIS MOD ADDS
  • Daytime - Noon and Overcast
  • Dusk

KNOWN ISSUES
  • The Rain/Snow maps are disabled in the Avenger Basecape view. I'm pretty sure that the rain and snow will clip through the Avenger.

TODO
  • Fix some bugs, if any.
  • Port more skydomes (Nightime Skydomes mostly)
  • Add more weather varieties. (Heavy rain/snow at daytime, Hurricane weather)

COMPATIBILITY
  • It's compatible with all map mods, since it adds (NOT RELPACES) Environmental Lighting maps.

CREDITS

Textures:
  • CGSkies for the panoramic sky textures.

Material/Map Assembly/Misc:
  • E3245 for assembling the maps and materials for this mod.
  • Robojumper for figuring out post processing, and Color Lookup Tables.

AFAIK the mod author is not active at the moment, so your best course of action would be to delete the config line with the "Dusk" map name and the "Abandoned" level name. It can be found inside the XComMaps.ini config file.

Any chance to remove Dusk lighting in lost maps , the frame rate is horrendous to the point i lowered the settings to get some small fps boost

That's not been my experience at all. I've been using it with WotC since its release.

Not compatible with Wotc. The mods lighting does not work properly, the fog of war ends up turning red causing major performance issues.

Same, my fps dropped noticeably on a very lit/foggy lost map. Im running Lwotc, didnt had any red but instead tons of shadows and lights flickering all around the mission.

Just dropping by to say thanks, this is excellent.

@Blackface is correct. Down to 42FPS at only 60% gpu load and the 'the Lost' map is super red.

I've been using this mod for ages and haven't seen that, did you edit the .ini like in p6kocka's July 2018 post? I believe those lines are intentionally commented out as they relate to the night-time skies removed from this mod. If you've enabled the lines and they can't find the right assets weirdness, like that red lighting, would probably ensue.

If anyone else is having the same problem, I think this does screw with Lost map lighting in some way. Almost every Lost map I got with this enabled was really red and my FPS tanked. Uninstalled it and I've not seen a single map with that same red lighting.

Someone else mentioned very red lighting. I'm getting that, mostly on Lost maps, and for some reason it cuts my framerate in half.
