I've done this before I think you do this...
Go to the map you want to open in HMT and scroll to the sky tab.
This is where your fog settings will be. Mess around with the colours and densities until you get the effect that you want.
Hope this helps.

no thats for changing fog levels and colors, you will need to edit lightmaps.

You can make the level darker though by thickening fog...sorta

ugh i hate people like you, youll do anything to get one extract fucking member wont you?

to edit the lightnign in a level just extract all the bitmaps (i think there 15), in levels\test\bloodgulch\bloodgulch.

all you do is make the bitmaps darker, then re-inject them. voila.

wow i can tell why you guys didnt want to explain how to do such a complicated process.
