Aurora Of Ivalice (AOI) is a dynamic sunset system mod that gradually alters the visual post-processing of the game over time, giving maps a sunset effect.



Features

  • Dynamic Sunset System: Over a span of 20 minutes, the mod gradually applies post-processing changes, transitioning the map visuals to a sunset effect.
  • Time Persistence: The time progression is stored and carried across map transitions, ensuring the presets are applied based on the current time.
  • Presets for Various Maps: Includes well-tuned presets for most open-world maps, tailored for a visually pleasing experience.

Have all maps been tested?
Yes

What does "dynamic" mean?
The mod applies gradual post-processing adjustments over a 20-minute interval, creating a dynamic transition to a sunset effect.

Is the cycle reset when changing maps?
No, the time progression is stored, and presets are applied based on the current in-game time.

Can the visuals be made darker?
Yes, but fine-tuning each map is time-intensive. The included presets are optimized to look visually pleasing; making them darker might degrade the experience.

Why doesn't it become fully night?
Achieving a true night effect would require loading textures from other maps, which is complex and incompatible with gradual texture transitions.

Is it compatible with all mods?
Compatibility with all mods isn't guaranteed. However, it works well with most of Xeavin's mods I have installed.

Known Issues
Teleportation between maps may cause maps to appear darker than intended. It may be necessary to exit the map and enter again to reload the preset.
