    Tokyo Night Light Enhancement - Image 1

    Description

    I am unhappy with the night light mods available for Tokyo, including both the payware from SamScene3D, and the others available in the community, so I am trying to make my own.

    This project is heavily inspired by @miguel88 's Tokyo Yokohama Nightlights addon. Please check it out first if you want your Tokyo and Yokohama to look amazing at night.

    Important

    I highly recommend that you use my addon along with my shinagawa photogrammetry improvement addon that provides the best visual experience for runways 16L and 34R at Haneda

    You can find the addon here: tokyo-shinagawa-ota-photogrammetry-near-haneda-international-airport-lod-optimized

    In addition, you can try the photogrammetry improvement made by @Hiro). There are 2 parts in total:

    • Enhanced Tokyo, Japan 202109 Part 1 of 2
    • Enhanced Tokyo, Japan 202109 Part 2 of 2

    These add-ons add missing buildings that are not present in the outdated default photogrammetry. However, you may want to install only some parts of the addon as they are not optimized for performance using LOD, and you are likely getting a very low FPS.

    To balance FPS and realism, I recommend you install the following packages only:

    • Google3D_Tokyo_Shinjuku - Updates missing buildings such as Shibuya Sky and the  National Stadium

    Version 0.3.1

    Fixed draw distance issue, now the lights should load on start instead of appearing only when you get close

    Version 0.3

    • Replaced previous light models with custom lights made by myself.
    • Updated the color of the lights at jonanjima.
    • Added light effect around the Odaiba region.
    • Updated the placement of the rainbow bridge to align with the photogrammetry better.
    • Removed some vegetation on road.

    Version 0.2

    Added Night light for Jonanjima, Meguro, Shinjuku, Shibuya, Akihabara, Budokan, National Stadium, and Tokyo Dome regions.

    Version 0.1.1

    The first version of this addon only contains night light for the Tokyo Tower. The modeling of the default Tokyo Tower looks fantastic but sadly it has no light effect at night. Over 200 individual light sources have been manually added to make the illumination of Tokyo Tower look as realistic as possible.

    Installation - Unzip and put it in your community folder.

    This is an ongoing improvement for Tokyo city. Updates will be added from time to time.

    Thank you for your support:) Let me know if there is any issue.

    I have the Gundam Unicorn model mod placed correct size and place but with the Japan world update the gundam from that world update stands in the same place. Not sure if it can be overwritten. Do you have any knowledge?

    You may try to remove the default photogrammetry using polygons or other methods. I am sorry that I cannot provide you with more info as I am learning about the SDK as well.
