shadothrust:
I have never edited a map and my cuzin wants me to make him a house on emerald isles and he wants it dark.... how do i make it dark... or could someone make it dark for me plz?(Wrong topic there)

Space Guy:
Edit the "Sun" and "Sky" portions of the mission file. You'll want to change the colours to lower values to make them darker..

A comparison of Bedroom and Bedroom Dark for an idea of what you're looking for:

The "dark" field in Bedroom Dark makes people turn on their light if they have enabled "Auto-Use Light in Dark Maps" in Advanced Options, it doesn't actually make the map darker.

Space Guy:
The important fields are probably the Sky's fogColor and SkySolidColor, as well as the color and ambient fields for the Sun.
