for RealisticPower mod users: Try using the Clockwork mod also, in order to gain the ability to control not only the day/night length, but also the ratios of day/night/twilight. To make Clockwork's settings take effect properly, set RealisticPower's day length modifier to 1. Also, a new game begins at day-cycle time 0.50 exactly.
For Kenira: Please consider offering support for Clockwork mod. It seems to work fine alongside RealisticPower but it took some research to find the right settings to do it, and I could easily be missing something, so I can't say for certain everything works properly.
