You can change stadium lighting

Could not find a similar post. In the data/stadium folder there is a text document lighting that has the various lighting. If you want a dusk lighting at Yankee, which by default only has night and day ligthing, all you do is change it to 02dusk and save: You will need to put in some dusk clouds from Fenway for the full effect. I took out the dusk effect at Fenway and changed it to day as I could not pick up the ball and no way am I going to be get whiffed by Schilling.

Here's a quick comparison of how the lighting change can affect how players look.

The screenie shows Brian Giles @ Turner Field in Atlanta. The left side of the screen shows him with the Lighting setting for the stadium changed to '05day' and the right side shows him under default '02dusk' conditions.

It is quite obvious that the change of settings have a nice effect on how the players and the uniforms look.

Normal lighting remains the same, at least according to my opinion. Shadows change a little bit, but more in terms of how 'solid' or 'transparent' they look. Positioning wise, they remain the same (the Light Towers cast their shadows in the exact same position with any of the settings, at least under Dusk and Daylight conditions), which kind of makes things feel a little weird.

Oh I see, so this doesn't change the sky, just the actual light it gives off so to say.

I want to get different times of day in the sky at all parks, like dusk, night, and day at every park. Maybe a selector or something to choose.

Good find on this, but not anything I need to use imo.

It's actually his brother, Marcus.

If you ever want to rename your stadium to another stadium, you rename the light file and the actual stadium file.

If it's like last year, this is because they're not actually casting shadows -- the shadows are static images, like the basepaths or the grass.

Brainfart... you're right... I'm sorry, it was late and I was sleepy ;).

Ohhh, OK... so, can those be removed???

Great find. I just changed the lighting on all the classic stadiums. Now they look like baseball stadiums instead of dungeons. Thanks. Just another step toward making a great game better.

How come some of them have the _c after them? Do you know what that means? Is that the Cooperstown effect? and what about the _o, etc.?

Sean, Pirate, Paul, any stadium modder, can you help me here?

Yup, C is classic. I'm not sure what's so special about the spring training parks to deserve an _e, or what's going on with the _o.

Honestly, I've barely ever dealt with the lighting effects since it affects results so dramatically less than the different skies.

I've been trying to make a day version of old Cleveland Stadium, and even after I add a day sky, it still looks like it's night. I thought the lighting file may have some effect.

Cleveland also has a funky lighting setup, which I learned from all the time I spent working on it as a base. Try loading up the park's crowd file (after making a copy), and the crowd file of another day stadium, look at the "color" under vertex properties, and copy that over to every vertex in the cleveland one.

Thanks Hardcore.

It's not the crowd0.fsh file is it?

it should be crowd.orl and .ord. You have to turn it into a .o file. Open it then in OEdit and highlight ALL the vertices in each part. Then, part by part, change the vertice color to match what the color would be in a day game.

If someone knew the 'default' middle value, you could just use that.
