📋 About This Mod
Quick and simple mod this. Fellout is a great mod, but I and many others are not too keen on the extremely dark nights. So I\'ve made these files containing the original night time light levels for Fallout 3 and the Point Lookout DLC (no other DLC requires it). FELLOUT IS REQUIRED, as these files only contain light level data. And as such are compatible with any version of Fellout. Simply load these .esp files after Fellout and it will work fine.
