The World\dnc.db file in misc.mpq specifies the day-night cycle. Fortunately, the folks at Blizzard were kind enough to label every data field in this file! :D
Header
Offset Type Description 0x00 uint32 nFields - Number of fields 0x04 uint32 Number of fields (again)
Next, nFields * 8 bytes define the rest of the file structure:
Offset Type Description 0x00 uint32 Always 0x53 0x04 uint32 Offset to field name (which is zero-terminated)
Data
After the header come the actual records, each being nFields * 8 bytes in size. Every field value has this structure:
Offset Type Description 0x00 uint32 Always 0x46 0x04 float Field value
Here is the list of field names:
1. Hour 2. Minute 3. DayIntensity 4. DayR 5. DayG 6. DayB 7. DayX 8. DayY 9. DayZ 10. NightIntensity 11. NightR 12. NightG 13. NightB 14. NightX 15. NightY 16. NightZ 17. AmbientIntensity 18. AmbientR 19. AmbientG 20. AmbientB 21. FogDepth 22. FogIntensity 23. FogR 24. FogG 25. FogB
The file contains 24 records, one for each whole hour (Hour = 0 to 23, Minute = 0)
This looks like info for outdoor lighting with respect to the day-night cycle. The colors for the differnt light types are self-explanatory. The XYZ coordinates specify a directional light source.
