this may be a dumb question but how do you turn the sun off? Is in possible in a WAC file? I messed around with the sun settings with little effect.
I would like to use a day environment but get rid of the sun or at least tone it down. Any other details on this would be appreciated.
thanks in advance.

i agree eagle if you notice i aint posted this much due to the failure of bt. but anyway as you will notice i no longer post replies twice in a row
cause i find it agrivating after the 20th time.
Note: im am wondering at this time if eagle is now bald. because if i scratched my head each time i was trying to work something out i would have a
dip in my skull.
Extra Note: did anyone notice that the note was the near enough the same size as the actual message i posted and that this extra note will be around
the same size as the last note.HumanTarget - 2-12-2004 at 10:44 PM

Day to Night
KRULL*GP - 2-13-2004 at 08:40 AM
Thanks for the information on the day to night settings. Anoshi, it was good seeing your name in BHD/TS map rating again. And I hope better maps are
created from your comments.
Thanks,
KRULL
What about from Night to Day?
BoyTigas - 8-20-2004 at 01:27 PM
I've seen one, but it didn't work.
Could someone post a working wac commands for changing Night to Day on this thread?
Thanks.
BT
Well...
-Hawkeye- - 8-20-2004 at 10:51 PM
Just an idea, but: might one be able to set Colorfade properties to negative...giving the same effect as colorbrighten (which I assume doesn't exist)?
I would assume that, starting with a night map, you couldn't use any Sun settings as the sun doesn't appear on-screen.joselz - 8-21-2004 at 09:05 AM

Night and dark, but not TOO dark
davesnow - 8-25-2004 at 09:03 AM
There is one setting for night that is totally dark. How would I set my settings (!) to make it dark, but not totally dark. Like I'd want to be able
to see my HAND in front of my face, but I don't want to have to set fog distance to make it appear dark.
