📋 About This Mod
I have tweaked my Muzzle Flash Reborn mod to make it look more vanilla like, have better compatibility and be simpler to install.
Just download and install, you may need a reshade or enb to look fairly good and should be compatible with almost everything.

To be honest, my other muzzle flash mod has been published with the intention of encouraging some skilled author to improve the vanilla effect that looks like shit (it is not the only thing that looks dated in the Bethesda engine but it is one that more piss me off). Therefore, if someone wants to improve my work and publish it, it is free to do so.
