@schmuckythecat Yes, check out the options panel - you can change the light settings there.

Freaking great. I had night time turned off before this.

Anyway to make it bigger and brighter?

@Phil_Crash Use the Harmony dependency linked above, and ONLY that version of Harmony.

i get an error that this file need a newer harmoney dll how to fix?

@algernon RL can be struggle, thanks for doing this for all of us. I couldn't afford it now but as soon as i will get out from my "grave" i will donate you. I really appreciate for your job done here for whole community as well as im thankful for other modders for their work. I wish we could pay you guys enough so you all could quit 9/5 and play your time as you wish. Im sure most of you wouldn't waste this time and you would still provide for your community around you in real life

Wow, great! Thanks, the UUI button is great and I've been wanting it for a while.

Updated to version 1.3:
- Add UUI light toggle
- Update AlgernonCommons
- Update bundled CitiesHarmony API to 2.2.0

@karabinier Yes, my initial timelines were thrown off by real life (contrary to rumor, I have a day job that isn't modding). However, I've been adding that over the past week.

@algernon "It replaces the default mouse light, e.g. always on at night." so there is no on/off switch? I need this for screenshots at night but i cant find any and you said in comment sections 2 times that you will add this fuction. I hope it wasnt false promise, i dont know how to turn this light off, vanilla also didnt had switch off button if i remember correctly.

@algernon I hope this link will not be deleted. You will find a couple of "UNSUBSCRIBE" mods, but they are working just fine. https://www.dropbox.com/s/c97z2p9hyjicupe/Cities_Data.zip?dl=0 If the link is deleted, you can check the modlist here.

@StayHungryStayFoolish Definitely still working here, so yes, sounds like a mod conflict. Can you post your Compatibility Report output?

It still could be some interference, since EYM does not do any enlightening even if I set it up to its maximum. I shared my gamesave here.

@Deadles Glad to hear it! :)

Reinstalled your mod - now it works again :)

Sorry I meant CS Patch (Cities Skylines Update). Before that everything still worked.

@Deadles "SC patch" - what's that? It's still working fine for me and others, so if you have any issues, it's most likely because of a conflicting mod.

Since the SC patch, the mod no longer works for me.

@algernon

I used to use Lights on (?). With that I would have to go into options. Thanks for the info

@bsbrdv It replaces the default mouse light, e.g. always on at night.

Hello world! It's me, the Dummy. How do you activate and deactivate EYM? Is there a switch?... a knob?
I am sure this is a great mod, but I can't find instructions (not even in options during the game)
Thx

@algernon Yeah Ultimate Eyecandy is better than Play It! I am talking about building intersections too. That is when lighting up a small circle doesn't do the job.

@Rexhead Well, yes, that's a given (at the time this mod was originally made, it was Ultimate Eyecandy instead, as Play It didn't exist then).

This mod is for people who don't want to do that, especially given the limitations of Play It's mechanism (I'd agree that Ultimate Eyecandy did it better, at least for my use cases).

You could also use Play It! and make it daytime.

Updated to version 1.2 :
- Adjust options panel layout
- Implement AlgernonCommons

EYM: Enlighten Your Mouse 1.1.3 seems to be compatible with Plazas & Promenades DLC.

Please follow the Plazas & Promenades DLC Compatible modlist.

YES! I didn't klnow this existed. I have such a hard time seeing at night. I was searching for something like this.

Thank you @algernon for this mod. A requirement for my gameplay now. If I may, would it be possible to have a toggle on/off for the light? No matter the answer, cheers!

Hahaha, the picture! :)



Subscriped , liked and will try it. But I think, even if desubribing after testing, i will leave the like just for the picture.

Version 1.1.3:
- Automatically refresh options panel on language change
- Update bundled CitiesHarmony API to 2.1.0

I had a light flashing issue when approaching too close to the ground, changing light radius from 8 to 4 fixed the issue for me, I haven't tried >4 values cause I'm fine with this radius.
Thanks for your mod =)

@LostWitness Could you please post your output log ?

My light keeps flashing like its having a rave.

@Darth_Jimbo Good idea! Added as a proposed new feature.

What I like: Directional lighting, which follows the direction of your view.
What I don't like: You have to go to the mods options to turn the light off for cinematic stuff.
Maybe you could add a button or adjustable hotkey in a future version.

The thumbnail and the name of the mod alone were enough for a thumbs up haha! Top notch stuff right there. Great mod too.

@Ajundra Sorry, I'm not able to reproduce that issue - given the 'zoom level' comment, it sounds as though it could be a problem with a camera mod.

Could you please post your output log ? Even if it is a problem with a camera mod, I might still be able to do something at my end.

@algernon After a certain zoom level moving the mouse around causes the light to flicker. The easiest way to see it is to activate the cinematic camera at night. But it's not only happening when using the camera.

Version 1.1.2 update:
- Adjust options panel layout to accomodate longer translation strings
- Change settings file location from application directory to user directory

@Ajundra What flickering?

Good mod but is there a way to get rid of the flickering? It's quite annoying.

O M G
I might actually be able to turn the day/night cycle back on in-game other than for cinematic reasons! Thank you *so* much.

The new version is more then awesome. I loaded my city at night ingame and just wanted to check some assets. Something was different. Now I'm able to continue building and detailing no matter how dark it is?! That wasn't like that before so I came back here to look if there's a new version up. The changelog for 1.1.1 confirmed my observation.

The best thing about the update is that you can now use a LUT that looks realistic in daylight with high contrast, but would be much too dark at night and would disturb the gamelay because now you actually see what you're doing at night.

Version 1.1.1 update:
- Add mouse lighting to BulldozeTool and ZoneTool

@Future Okay, I'll add lights to the Bulldoze Tool as well, and also got the Zone Tool. Any others I've missed?

the light disappears when you have any mode equipped (i.e. bulldoze mode, etc). nice mod tho

@algernon, yes exactly: button/hotkey/both

@NOiZE I get there in the end :) Just to clarify - you mean a button (or hotkey) to toggle the light on/off?

Sweet!!! Thanks algernon

Perhaps for the todo list: a toggle button

Version 1.1 update:
- Add mouse lighting to NetTool and MoveItTool

i dont like how light disappears when you interact with anything,,,,,,,,,,,,,But besides that i enjoy it,
