I have made photo textures with SBuilderX but I didn't add the night textures before compiling. The scenery at night, obviously, looks too bright, so I would like to add night textures. The problem is that I don't have any more the bmp's, I only have the bgl's. Is there a way to add the night textures without having to add the maps again, edit them (coastlines, etc.) and then adding the night textures?
If that is not possible and I have to start again from scratch, would it be possible that night textures had less resolution than day ones? It is because the scenery is made with a very high resolution, but at night that resolution would be a completely unnecessary load for the sim.

Re: Create night textures for an already done scenery
Unfortunately, you may have to start again. I don't know that anybody has tried making the night variants apart from the normal day textures, although you can attempt it if you are curious.
The lower resolution of the night textures shouldn't make any difference, and at night you will probably not notice anyway when flying over them.
Best regards.

Thank you, Luis. I have already started to do all the textures. For your information, I'm using a lower resolution for night textures and it works ok.
