Realistic Nights

Any addon can set a realistic nights in ESO, like in old-fashioned Skyrim's mod?
Would be awesome to see it while listening to the ambient animal sounds.
Especially thrilling while soloing PvE, but also in PvP.

    I have used "Night Time" mods in Skyrim, FO4, Oblivion etc.. and they are great. In the absence of them though I have found that simply turning the gamma down has nearly the same effect.

    The one thing it doesn't do (and probably isn't possible in this game) is increase the radius or intensity of the light thrown from light sources. But it does basically reduce or eliminate the "ambient" light that comes from ???? in most games.

    Also, if you want you can turn off character lighting in the usersettings file and your character will no longer have that subtle glow on the left side of them at all times.

    Mm, that would be cool. I wonder if it's doable. Lighting is processed on the client side, right?

    It'd be a huge disadvantage for doing group content, but soloing, I can see this heightening the immersion and drama... especially since you can't just sleep or wait to fast forward to the next morning!
    Living vicariously through my characters.

    My Girls:
    "If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"

    Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management."
    Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir."
    Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!"
    Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?"
    Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop."
    Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!"
    Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp."
    Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard."
    Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT."
    Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun."
    Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..."
    Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said."
    Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!"
    Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time."
    Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people."
    Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight."
    Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"

    Both Votan's and Reshade looks great on screnshots, Reshade even better, but since it's not an addon, but external exe installation... Will be available with Minion some day?

    It won't ever be available on minion, but it's okay to use with ESO (confirmed by ZOS).

    It's the most popular graphics injector out there. Only one dev I know of has ever issued bans for using it, and they made it clear that they didn't want people using it.

    First I test Votan's and so far happy with the effect. It needs some settings since the night now can be real dark or completely black, I prefer something in a middle. But dark is dark now, and it looks awesome especially in mountain valleys and dungeons, more thrilling fights too.
