As you can see, the sun does go down, but the twilight lasts much too long. When it's overcast, the clouds are too bright at night. And sometimes during bright sunny days, the men's faces have way too much light on them.

What's odd is that I've found forum posts describing opposite problems: "black sky during the day," "nights are too dark" etc. Haven't found a single example of this problem though.

This is only my first patrol since a recent reinstall. I can't imagine any of the mods I'm using would have any impact on the skybox, but something must be screwing with it.

Details on my game:
mods:
- GWX
- SH3 Commander
- SH3C+GWX compatibility patch
- DBSM
- Ahnenerbe WideGUI 1920x1080 Final
system:
Win 10
game running in compatibility mode for XP SP3, as admin

Thanks for your consideration, all, whether or not anyone has any idea!

In SH 4, in same area in Atlantic, at higher latitudes in summer...late May, June, and most of July this can happen.

Noticed if keep TC at 1026 and below, best at 512 or below, does not happen as often.


In Pacific when in Alaskan Waters, Kurile Islands, happens as well. Very short nights, sometimes so short its never really night.
