Day/Night Relay - makes daynight cycle..?

How this w0rk?

change fog
change tonemap
change color correction (2fort and ghost fort)
toggle zhe light_environment
toggle night and moon brush

The Files:

p_DayNight_TurnOFF_LIGHTENV.zip
- pprefab_daynight1.vmf
- test_daynight1.bsp

The Good:

• NO NEED TO PLACE OVER 9000 LIGHTS

The BAD:

• prop_static shadows will cast night light only

• If make big map with hyper detailin' your vvis compile is goin' to die

I'm judging by the name of the first file that you haven't done it like this, but light_environment will take inputs that regular light entities would; so you can use TurnOn and TurnOff (they may be called something else if my memory fails me). This means you can have a day light_env and a night light_env, turn off the day one and turn on the night one (or vice versa).

Maybe have a collection of light_enviorments for various times of day, and then have a moving sun / env_sprite in the skybox that moves based off of a script.

Hopefully you've already looked at this thread here https://tf2maps.net/threads/fake-day-night-cycle.30702/#post-400852

This isn't exactly what you're doing here, but still worth checking it out.

you can't create 2+ light_enviorments

you can't create 2+ light_enviorments

I will try out if there is still a way to do that.

You definitely can because I have done previously, you can just set all but one to start disabled and it'll look like there's just one. It might need some FGD modifications though

It worked for me ones but when I started the map again it totally glitched out for some reason. I had to switch the names of the day and night light for it to work again. (I really don't know how that happend)
