    Why are older routes so freaking bright at day and so dark at night . I know they use tod 3 but I don't remember them being that bad.

    Because that was before they used what they use now. Alot of routes havent or won't be backdated to bring them up to today's standards.

    If you're playing on PC, most older routes have had enhancement packs produced by the community which usually include upgraded scenery and lighting. Obviously there are limits to what these can bring but they do give the routes a new lease of life. If you're playing on console I'm afraid you'll just have to wait for a remaster, but we've already had three of them and DTG plan to produce more.

    I think what the OP means is that it seems like TOD3 routes are worst now then they was when first released under night conditions.

    I definitely get that feeling but a quick fire up of TSW2 or 3 will confirm it’s merely our minds playing tricks on us and no they really where this bad (compared to later routes) at night. And old age is coming for us all

    Hey folks,

    I'm going to close this thread as 8 out of the 12 messages in here were just off-topic and quarrelsome.
    As others have explained already, the older TSW games use different lighting, hence the different look.

    All the best,
    Jan
