Hi RedRafe,
i saw that you published 15 days ago a mod called "afraid of the dark".
It happens that I released a mod with the same name (and almost same goal) several years ago, and it has just been updated to 2.0.
Maybe you could change your name in order to distinguish both mods easily, because my old users are a little bit lost ;-)
Thanks for your help and have a nice day.

Hi, sure! This was in fact a fork of your own mod, updated during the beta testing for streamers to record in the dark of the new expansion. I wasnt sure you were still around since last update was 3 years ago, but I'll easily come up with a different name (cant change the internal name tho)

oh ok, some guy already updated my mod (I gave him permission on the repo), but it seems that he has problems with glasses not fitting into the grid). He admitted that he's not a modder. Do you feel like unifying the mods, and I'll give you permission on my repo ?
Of course, you could add your name into the mod :-)

PS: I just had a look to your mod : do you still use the creation of glasses, or is it just an ON/OFF switch ?

I tried Brighter Universe but it wasn't making Nauvis any brighter at night and the options only allow the other planets not Nauvis. Any chance we could get the sunglasses to work because that was my favorite part about the Afraid of the Dark Mod

No I removed all equipments and Im just tweaking the surfaces' lightmask. Im not interested into acquiring any more mods, I've already enough stuff on my plate. But if you need help, maybe drop a message on my discord or link the Github issue and I'll give it a look

That works perfectly if you could make it where the nights are no where near as dark then that would be perfect.
Thanks for all your hard work! :)

@JenWithAB sorry didnt see your message. There are settings to make planets more brighter than the default preset, up to always day

I think there is a bug because there is no option for Nauvis, just fulgora, gleba, and vulcanus. Also missing Aquillo
There is one option called _Character which doesn't affect Nauvis either

There is an option for nauvis. check the startup settings.

I am the guy who fixed Afraid Of The Dark for 2.0. im not a modder like binbinhfr already mentioned but looking around in your mod it should not be that hard to merge both imo. Only adding the startup setting whould be doable I think. It does not do much else compared to Afraid Of The Dark right?

I made some screenshots of the different presets
Default preset: https://gyazo.com/c76decaf7078a638f947c90e8957b0ab
Bright preset: https://gyazo.com/4a37a0ed18a56d41ef4883237b18886e

Both screenshots are taken at night time 00:00 and you can see the bright preset really stands out. mod seems to work as intended.

Msg for RedRafe and BinbinHfr:

I merged both mods together in (unreleased) AfraidOfTheDark 1.0.30. You two will have to figure out what you want to do with it. I suggest Bright Universe could be depreciated and RedRafe could be added as a collaborator to Afraid Of The Dark to bugfix in the future if needed. Only the German and France locale needs to be updated

Thanks @ashayazu it was fixed in a separate discussion. Thanks for looking into this though :)
