📋 About This Mod
Atomic Bomb ... BOOOM !!! ... No glass ...
This mod will add missing and fixes current Distant LOD. Almost all interiors capable of showing the exterior are affected. This is a huge change and directly impacts on your gaming experience ... on top of this the cells of interest do now use Sky Lighting, so you can see sun and moon phases inside the interior. Its a perfect copy of the outside, but with a fixed special interior weather (which is always sunny). The sun, lens flar, etc. all equals the exterior worldspace except for the interior lighting setup and image templates, etc. which still work like before.
In the following a more detailed overview:
Most interior glass/windows have been disabled which allows player char to see the exterior world (LOD). This will add a total new layer of atmosphere to the interiors of interest, gameworld. Most of the glass windows can be disabled without any issues:
BldGlassSolid01
BldGlassTrans01
BldGlassTrans02
BldGlassTrans03
BldGlassTrans04
BldGlassTransExt01
BldGlassTransExt01Opaque
BldGlassTransExt01OpaqueOnesided
BldGlassTransExt02
BldGlassTransExt02Opaque
BldGlassTransExt02OpaqueOnesided
Any of these windows use an emmitance called "FXLightRegionSunlightOffAtNightGlass " which handles the color/light per night by a fake region which is tied to an interior weather reference. In the effect remover file all of these use a black light which disables the emmitance and entire glass will be transparent leaving only the window frame visible.
In order to accomblish the changes, proper cell oprientation was set, using NorthMarker, LODClipVolume, Exterior Worldspace and Offset. Its is very important to properly sort your mods or patch them yourself in order to make the mod function!
Weather in interior is always "default", meaning it will always be sunny/clear. I added DLC weather support for Far Harbor and Nuka-World which is missing in the vanilla game.
Fyi, weather can be changed, it can even be as in any exterior region, all weather types. However, the weather from the outside will never be equal when transfering to the inside and vice versa. This is an engine limitation and as of now, there is no mod which can fix this.
