Hello Manu,

Would it be possible to add an exposure option for each stadium’s night session in the Hidden Settings? That way, we could set custom values for each stadium instead of manually adjusting the exposure every time a new tournament starts in World Tour.

The XKT mod uses different exposure and compensation values for each stadium’s night session, so there is no single universal exposure setting that works well for all of them.

In short, I am asking for the ability to save a specific exposure value for each stadium’s night session. When a stadium loads at night session, the exposure would then automatically adjust based on the value I have set in Hidden Settings.

The default time seems to have consistent lighting across all stadiums in XKT Mod so that is why I am asking for a way to tweak night session exposure specifically.

Hello,

no, it wouldn't make sense to have this in the .ini , it should be done in the Mod, so at that point, it's just better that they balance the lighting if they did some changes to it.

Is there the same issue with the unnmoded game ?

[Nicky Gi.]

I tested all your stadiums in Night Session only without any mods active. These are the values I set for the Exposure to fix the night session lighting per stadium. All other stadiums that are not in the list are perfectly fine.

Cincinnati (Exposure -15%)
French Slam (Exposure -25%)
Indoor TET 250 (Exposure -15%)
Monte Carlo (Exposure -10%)
Montreal (Exposure -5%)
Rome (Exposure -20%)
Shanghai (Exposure -20%)
Side Court (Exposure -10%)
TET 500 (Exposure -15%)
Training Court (Exposure -20%)
UK Slam (Exposure -5% or -10%)

Thanks for your list !

I adjusted all the -25%, -20% & -15% (except the Indoor TET 250 which looked fine) and for the next update ; they'll probably feel like -10% for you.

I'm ok with the luminosity changing a bit from stadium to stadium, as it creates a unique atmosphere for all of them ; I just tuned the one where it was a bit too bright.

These are the values for the default time now, with the sun at the back, I have Compensation at the default 0.3, you said you will roll it back to 0.25 in the next patch so maybe these values need to be corrected by 5% so instead of Exposure -15% set it to -10% and instead of -20% set it to -15% etc. :

Australian Slam (Exposure -15%)
Beach House (Exposure -15%)
Challenger (Exposure -15%)
Cincinnati (Exposure -20%)
Indian Wells (Exposure -20%)
French Slam (Exposure -20%)
Key Biscayne (Exposure -20%)
Madrid (Exposure -20%)
Monte Carlo (Exposure -25%)
Montreal (Exposure -25%)
Rome (Exposure -25%)
Shanghai (Exposure -15%)
Side Court (Exposure -20%)
TET 250 (Exposure -15%)
TET 500 (Exposure -20%)
Training Court (Exposure -35%)
UK Slam (Exposure -15%)
US Slam (Exposure -20%)

I won't change the daylight settings except for the Compensation.

[Nicky Gi.]

Okay, so how about making Compensation 0.2 as default?

[Nicky Gi.]

I tested all the stadiums at the default time with compensation set to 0.2, and they look perfect with exposure at 0%.

[manutoo]

I already checked and 0.25 is equivalent to the game before the last update.

[Nicky Gi.]

How can I set the exposure of the stadiums at night session with modding?

[manutoo]

Not easily ; I guess you could create a .menu script to automatically set the exposition depending on the stadium name, but that'd be rather complicated.
