I'm using gMax v 1.2 and i'd like to ask something  that i've always wondered about...

How do i add a "night" map that shows when it evening or night??? It would be great if someone could help me with this! Cause i do need it.

Thanks,
Mike:)

Are you talking about textures? If so, its not something controlled by Gmax.  You just need to paint the same texture you use for the day in the colors you use for night and rename it with the suffix _L (meaning "light" I suppose).  This will tell the sim to look for those textures when you start at night.

A file that is titled as Your_Texture_LM will be considered as a nightmap by FS and when you check the "Has NightMap" box in the Makemdl program as you export.
