Hey guys.
I am looking for specific things... I tried searching around before with not much luck... I wonder if these items even exist?

First, I am looking for some kind of sky or lighting mod that makes the sky look more like the Arctic. I don't mean the aurora borealis, I mean something like this:

This might just look like overcast weather, but it is a phenomenon called water sky. Here's more info on it:

I haven't tested it, but maybe this can be achieved with weather effects from winter, or Outdoor Lighting Tweaks (haven't used it in over a decade). Possibly Environment Lighting Tweaks.

But most importantly, I would like to achieve this distinctive 'pink-orange' tone:




I have no idea how to mimic this effect.


I would also like to find yellow/warm streetlights. They are still common where I live and I always noticed that The Sims had bright, white streetlights instead... I don't recall there being an option to change the colour of streetlights in TS3 , but maybe there is custom content like this?



Thank you for the help.

Not sure this is exactly what you’re looking for, as I have never seen it, but it might help.

As for street lights there are a few threads here on how you can change the colour, just Google it, there is a bit of reading

Thanks, I'll have to check these threads.
You linked me to a Tempest preset, I've come across it before but lost the URL so thank you for sending it to me either way.

I don't know if it will change the colour of the sky, though. I have to test it later.

I wanted some kind of lighting or sky box that makes the sky look pink during sunset/dusk, and maybe a way to achieve a 'water sky' effect.

Like this:






The phenomenon below almost looks like it's overcast, but the colour is more greyish. I might experiment with weather settings to simulate it. I am more interested in mimicking the other images, because they look cool.



I came across lighting mods that make the game look excessively saturated all the time, and from what I saw there isn't one that makes the sky look pink... the lighting tends to be bluish. What I want is a temporary effect anyway, something that appears in specific times.

Yesterday I discovered this:

It seems like this mod does have 'pinkish' skies depending on the time of day, but the effect is very subtle and I actually need the opposite of this mod - instead of imitating the 'sunrays' from a tropical island, I would need something that makes the game look colder. Ultimately it looks a bit too yellow for the idea I have in mind. I will use it for future saves though.

Brntwaffles' mod could work in theory, because in one of their examples, the 'cloudy sunrise' is kinda similar to what I would like to achieve. The thing is that the rest of the lighting is too saturated for me.

I wonder if I'll have to mess with ini files or CAW? I've never tried...
