📋 About This Mod
20. April 2022
Added fade feature. There is a new option in the config to change the gamma over time. It only works with custom times enabled. Fading over midnight isn't possible. The default value is 0 (no fade).
5. April 2022
Added an option to manually set the start and end of the night. Use formats like 18. 5 (18:30) to represent the time.
Gamma Mod which automatically activates at night time or in dark places.
The gamma value can be set in the config file. I recommend using the Configuration Manager to play with the values without the need of restarting.
