Custom Day/Night Light Enviroments

[The_Silent]

As some of you may know, you can create your own day/night lights by editing the models in the "Environment/DNC" folder in the MPQ. Anyway, opening one of them and checking the animation for ambient color (In magos) i get this:

As you might notice there is 60000 frames to a full day/night cycle. What I want to know is, at what "hour" of the day/night cycle does it start at?

(What I want is to create really dark nights, while not changing day.)

I am not sure exactly what you need. I think it is 6:00am and 6:00pm that the day and night switches. You'd want to modify things from 6:00pm to 6:00am (or maybe 5:59 or something). You'd basically want to modify half the values starting at some point that I don't know how to determine.

I think the night cycle begins around 18.00-20.00 and Day Cylce begins at 4.00-6.00

I'm wondering at what time of the day the animation starts at, aka when is frame 300.
