I agree, if Feral Heart was more realistic with it's graphics that would make for a much more enjoyable experience. Shadows would be great as well, but I know that shadows could cause a lot of lag. But one little detail that I want to mention. When it rains, and you are inside a den, the rain goes through to den. It would be more realistic if the rain would bounce off or run down the mesh. That would take a lot of coding though, I'm guessing. So the rain could simply not go inside the mesh. X3

Love this idea, and may I also say it would be great if the night sky itself was a dark navy instead of the fully-saturated blue violet thing it has going on now. For objects/characters, it would be pretty easy to change the materials to make them get dark at night, though it might be nicer if they didn't go all yellow during the day as a result. Not sure, but I think that's also map lighting...

This is a great idea! It would be alot more realistic and a great feature ingame. I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned before, Great job.  I can just imagine nighttime now and prowling around as my characters. Hehe


THE TRUTH IS HERE

The answers lie within

I like this idea. Certain eyes should be able to see in the dark. There should be a feature to make the eyes glow, like Red mentioned earlier in the topic, but it should be toggleable.

Wonderful idea but be thankful FH has night.

This idea goes well with the moon-phases idea I've seen someone suggest somewhere.

It's a great idea. Darker shadows and such, with a more realistic sky, and glowing eyes.
Bwahah. It would make stalking that much more effective. x3

I believe, the only way to do this is to reduce the ambient light in each material script of every object,, and maybe is not totally posible for the terrain or the characters, and is a lot of work compared to edit the game source code to reduce the global night ambient light.
someone should try...

i've actually had this idea for a few months now. I keep complaining to my sister that FeralHearts nights are just unrealistic for how light they are. I used to complain about that on his previous game IT. Since FH is more realistic with the models i was hoping he'd at least make night time realistic. However since he's probably too busy or he probably won't do it im going to see if i can. I'd love the game more and probably play it more often if it had these realistic features in. I think it'd make the game alot more enjoyable. For people who just laze around or for RP's.
