Very useful.

Thanks for using UIL for your Mod.

@Juju83 Thanks for the feedback and the suggestion! I'll write down your idea, although I do fear my time in the near future is better spent elsewhere. Still, I might come back to the idea at some point. For now, depending on your exact needs, you might find the PreservePhotoMode mod helpful.

The source code of the mod is available on GitLab. Initially I assumed Paradox Mods would block the link, but it turns out it doesn't, so I've added it now. Thanks for the suggestion! Also, I noticed you're the creator of the UIL icons, so thank you for the great work on the icons too!

Hi! Brilliant mod idea, but which button? Or where is it?
There should be a new button in the top-left corner, and its icon should look like the Sun. Check the screenshots of the mod if in doubt. If you can find it in the screenshots but not in-game, it's possible you're encountering the issue where the game fails to load mods in general for some reason. If you're sure your mods are loading, please let me know, and we'll see what we can figure out.

O man, tried what you said and yeah I think you don't need to. But maybe if you feel like it in the future, you could have this mod with the features I requested and with sliders easier to access and tinker with. But this works for now, thank you =)

Hi, does toggling the visuals with this mod effect time based gameplay, like rushhours, solar power stations etc.
Hi! This mod changes the visuals only, just like the "Day/night visuals" setting provided by the vanilla game in the Gameplay section in Options. Gameplay is not affected at all.
Fantastic, this will make a fine addition to my collection

Hi,
How do I get this Mod to work? It was installed by Skyve, and is in my active Playset, but I can't get it to work. I've tried it in a playst by itself, and still no luck. Any suggestions? Anyone?

Simply adding it to your playset should be enough. I've been playing with the mod enabled myself, and I just verified that it's still working, so technically there shouldn't be any reason for it to not work in general. Anyway, a couple of questions to help in resolving the issue:
  1. How is the mod not working? Do you not see the mod's Sun icon in the top left corner in-game (check the screenshots on the mod's page for the icon)? Or does clicking the button not do anything? Note that the button should work only when the game is unpaused.
  2. When loading a save, do you see a warning about achievements being disabled under the save's screenshot? If not, the game has failed to enable any mods for some reason, which is an issue with the game, and probably not the mod. Personally I've got mods to work in such cases simply by restarting the game, but your mileage might vary.
  3. Can you post your Daylight Switch.log and Modding.log from C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\LocalLow\Colossal Order\Cities Skylines II\Logs here if you're still having the issue?

1. I don't see the sun icon
2. No
3 See below.
Apologies for the delay - I'm new around here and haven't yet worked out fully what is where, if you kow what I mean. Thanks for your help.
