@nazarenooviedo: no worries, the one with high brightness is just one of the three different modes that I include in this patch :)
And here, people, is the first public beta :)

Please read this here before downloading the patch:
Code:
>======================================Duong's Match Graphics Replacement=========================================<
beta version 0.5
>=================================================================================================================<
Release date: October 9, 2009
>=================================================================================================================<
*This is a beta version, strictly for testing purposes. Please keep redistribution to a minimum.
If you encounter a bug, please report back to me at: http://www.soccergaming.com/forums/showthread.php?t=160607
>=================================================================================================================<
|> General features <|
-New 3D grass - shorter and sharper, with new texture
-New generic grass texture
-Updated face shadows
-New kit shadows
-New grass lighting & shadows parameters
-New kits' & players' model lighting
-New in-game PostFX effects that will apply to both cinematics and normal match graphics.
-New tunnel lighting
-Level of details and render rate reconfiguration
-Nach match time (sunny, overcast, sunset, night) has its own set of lighting parameters that are tuned to be as realistic as possible.
|> Specific features <|
*The patch is available in 3 modes: Neutral Edition, Overbright 'Silverscreen' Edition and Overbright 'Vibrant' Edition.
-Neutral Edition features lighting effects and colours that are relatively dull and easy on the eyes.
-Overbright 'Silverscreen' Edition features high-contrast, glossy and luminated lighting, together with a slight film-noire effect applied to match-time. This mode offers more dramatic and cinematographic visual effects, as well as a console-like feel to the game, as compared to Neutral Edition.
-Overbright 'Vibrant' Edition is pretty much identical to 'Silverscreen'. However it features lighting qualities with high vibrancy - in other words, colourful - resembling those of live soccer matches rather than those from a console game.
*There is also a fourth mode that restores your data to EA's original, in the event that you are dissatisfied with the patch.
>=================================================================================================================<
|> Installation <|
-Extract this RAR file to any location.
-Backup your zdata_36.big, zdata_36.bh, zdata_38.big and zdata_38.bh by making copies of these files, then move them to a different folder. Preferrably, backup your WHOLE data folder (located at FIFA 10/data), if you have enough free disk space in your computer.
-Next, simply double-click on the mode you want to install, and wait for the command window to finish processing. And guess what! You're done :)
*(To have a more dynamic in-game experience, you may want to keep this folder open while playing the game. BEFORE or AFTER a match, you can switch from FIFA 10 to this folder, using Windows+Tab or Alt+Tab, and apply another mode. This way, you can play the next match with different lighting effects if you so wish)

There you go, folks! :D As this patch is still in development stage, I'll need your comments after you test it in your own games. Please report back to me if there are any bugs :)
Thanks and enjoy!
Duong.
