My shadows are really messed up.

They're just way too dark, and my ambient brightness level changes nothing- i'm pretty sure that it's a scatterer issue.any ideas?

Check that you have the correct Scatterer version for your planet packs or other visual mods. Some mods need Scatterer 0.077 others prefer the latest 0.08.

I like these other mods for adjusting scene brightness. TUFX has an auto exposure setting that can fix overly dark scenes, and Minimum Ambient Light has a slider that's especially helpful on the dark side of a planet.
