I too request an IE darker/night version, favorite mod from WH2 ngl

Another begging (and supporting) post to add this mod to IE :)

I hope this gets ported over to WH III

Most needed mod for abysmal WH3
Xenosophont 15 Jul, 2022 @ 1:37pm 
This was such an enormous improvement. Thanks!
HughJanus69 6 Jul, 2022 @ 9:08am 
does this need to be updated for WH2?
Dumbledood 29 May, 2022 @ 10:35pm 
That's good to hear. I'd miss the shit out of this mod in game 3, but no pressure. If it's do-able, I'll chuck you some beer money (not wine money, I'm poor) for improving the experience of WH2 so much

Problem is there's the low and high lighting modes... and I can't make 1 mod that perfects both lighting scenarios. So I'm torn which one to make the mod for at first.
kelstr  [author] 22 Apr, 2022 @ 10:35pm 
lmaoooo @Moriarty - Yes I have working mod for WH3 that increases FPS and changes the environment lighting for the campaign map and battles. But I do agree WH3 sucks right now, so I've been not that motivated to post the mod lol I couldn't stand the environment lighting for the chaos realms either... just brutal
Moriarty 22 Apr, 2022 @ 2:31pm 
WH3 sucks so.. update?
Eli 26 Feb, 2022 @ 8:08am 
I truly wish you'd update this, many will keep playing TW2 for the foreseeable future due to mature modding content
kelstr  [author] 19 Feb, 2022 @ 8:50pm 
我喜欢深色版 :)

If you changed the torch vfx that wouldbe possible to have white torches. But it might change it for all torches
|rav| 13 Feb, 2022 @ 3:26pm 
@KELSTR is there any way to get the color of the torches to be white and not yellow/orange? The mod look stunning for the HE area. It looks really really bad in the Old World bc of the yellow lights :( Othewrwise it functions just right. People who complain about it not working need to place it ABOVE any fog mods and/or mods that change the campaign light.

I'm pretty busy right now; but I plan to focus all my modding efforts to WH3 when it launches soon.
Gleen Cross 30 Jan, 2022 @ 11:43am 
You actually updated this? I am curious to see it, I really miss the darker vampire lands

sirmicou85 8 Aug, 2021 @ 7:01am 
Hi ! Thank you for your work, but could we get an update please ? :)
SHADOW2KK 24 Jul, 2021 @ 10:47am 
Hey Kelstr, I realise your probably busy and stuff, but it would be good if you can give this amazing mod an update for latest DLC.
kelstr  [author] 15 Jun, 2021 @ 3:14pm 
Yes ME only
Veoler 15 Jun, 2021 @ 5:03am 
Does the mod only work for ME? Because this is exactly the case for me, that is, Vortex does not work, but in ME it works
Athropos 1 May, 2021 @ 5:10pm 
What is the load order for this? I dont think its working.
Leaf 17 Apr, 2021 @ 7:16am 
for me the campaign lands need to be darker with damp of fogs and/or mist to better compliment your grim battle mod
Mouse in the House 21 Mar, 2021 @ 10:26am 
update pls
hobekotkas 3 Mar, 2021 @ 12:47pm 
This Lighting is perfect in Vortex campaign. Lighting in ME campaign is very good in the Old World part( empire and stuff) but imo new world content looks way too dark ( It feels like there is night everywhere, unless thats the coal?). It would be perfect for me if old world stays the same and new world part resembles the Vortex part. Anyway very cool mod thx :)
watermelon 26 Feb, 2021 @ 11:27pm 
settra can finally stop complaining about the heat
piercebuster 23 Feb, 2021 @ 4:44pm 
It's definitely different lighting. Issue is that everything south of Norsca looks like is perpetually night time. Over in Lustria, Ulthuan, and Naggarond it's daytime with different lighting.

Overall the mod is very well done. The jungles of Lustria and snow areas look excellent and top notch. And the Vampire Counts look super cool with their night-time lighting!

Unfortunately what I can't get over though and makes this a dealbreaker for me is Nehekara... the desert... the Land of the Dead. It's perpetually night time! It's supposed to feel like this sun-baked ruinous desert and instead it feels like a busy crisscross of medieval towns oddly shaped as pyramids. Then to go from dark campaign map to bright scorched desert sand battles is incredibly jarring.

This mod does a lot of things right - I'm going to use it next time I play Vampires! But I really wish the desert felt like desert. The sample picture is NOT what it looks like.
Darkwolf 19 Feb, 2021 @ 9:58pm 
I have the same issue as below. No different lighting, just dark everywhere.
Baiox 18 Feb, 2021 @ 1:45pm 
Hi kelstr. TY for updating! Just wanted to let you know that now it doesn't look darker but just in night time. Hope you can fix it and make the graphics similar to TWW1
Jeżek z Molo 9 Feb, 2021 @ 1:13pm 
Hi! Great mod! Really! The game looks much better. The only question I have is what about ME map? U wrote that all lands are now darker. What did u mean? It looks darker, yes, but night is everywhere. Thats the idea?:DSTportal:
Rustic Clover 4 Feb, 2021 @ 5:28am 
God bless you for updating this!
Blue 31 Jan, 2021 @ 3:33pm 
This rocks. That is all.

There is a white pixel on the lower left side of the screen !
(Test with every resolution.)
Fowl 25 Jan, 2021 @ 9:53am 
Seriously saves my eyes, thanks for making this mod - vanilla lighting just saps all my enthusiasm for the game, especially lustria
New 2 Dota 25 Jan, 2021 @ 5:50am 
Oh and I meant that does Ulthuan now have the same lighting in ME as in Vortex? etc...
New 2 Dota 20 Jan, 2021 @ 9:27pm 
Will you be applying the changes from vortex to ME? Vortex is way better.
lale 20 Jan, 2021 @ 2:22pm 
Kelstr the mod works fine now, its all visible and much better looking than the original due to it having a much more darker vibe, plus the bright colors dont poke my eyes out anymore.
thanks for fixing it, keep up the good work
Seven Samurott 18 Jan, 2021 @ 3:49am 
You are a Legend among Men, sir. Thank you for your work.
kelstr  [author] 17 Jan, 2021 @ 5:08pm 
I'm sure I'll start tinkering with this mod again also :)
kelstr  [author] 17 Jan, 2021 @ 5:05pm 
Finally got around to installing RPFM. I nuked the Fog density... and increased the clear area from 10 to 40. Please let me know if this is sufficient for everyone :)
