Description: A cosmetic-only mod.
Darkens nights, dusks, eclipses and some weather to make the game more naturally and realistically looking.

Balance Note: It's just a cosmetic patch, so no balance changes. Only makes things harder to see.

So, for steam version of the game, the path would look like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RimWorld\Mods
For any other distribution, firstly locate your rimworld installation path and then unpack the archive into the 'Mods' folder.
