I wanted to let you know that the file seems to have fixed it. Thank you! The darkness is awesome!

Glad to hear that!

Well......it seems that later in the night it becomes impossible to navigate there again. I was in there during the early evening. Deadeye does 100% make a difference now, which it wasn't doing before. But yeah, if anyone gets stuck in the West Freeport Sewers at night and they don't know their way around....you better just stand still till morning.

Also, the difference between the east sewers and the west is still very spectacular.

In 1999 I actually used the level 1 flare spell to guide my path in the Toxxulia Forest at night. It was a great adventure.

Here is some more footage on EQ Trilogy. I got it to just stream on twitch and auto-save the videos for efficiency.

I was trying to get to oasis/west karana but both zones are actually out of order.

Funny easter egg at 3:15. Does this happen on P99?

The candle in your video does what I remember candles doing back in 1999. Here, it only gives a glow around your character and doesn't light anything up at all.

It's immediately apparent that people's memories were in fact accurate and you could see--dimly--terrain/etc, especially in snow-type zones. The "pitch black as soon as you're outside the radius of your light source" effect is overdone and is more nearly similar to rain or a few of of the dark "fog" zones, both which could be quite dark. I say that as someone who approves of getting classic night time darkness correct--this is a tuning issue and with work it can be made right, I think.

Yep! We started with "as dark as possible" mostly as a proof-of-concept. With those reference materials we are looking into reclaiming the dark blue tint at night in outdoor zones.
