📋 About This Mod
What I have done with this mod is lifted this percentage to anywhere from 80 to 100 percent in most interiors of the game including the DLC's bringing you a vastly more realistic lighting experience!
Hundreds upon hundreds of hours of work have gone into carefully hand placing thousands of new shadow cast lights and altering most of the other lighting to match the new look!
Many lighting bugs have also been addressed as well as optimization of the more complex levels with a triggered lighting system and adjustment to fog settings and the overall ambience in most places!
I hope you all enjoy the new lighting experience that this mod will bring to your Fallout 4 interiors!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 11,768 endorsements and 913k downloads—this mod is battle-tested
- Covers all major DLC areas, so you get consistent lighting improvements everywhere
- Enhances atmosphere with better fog and ambience, not just brighter lights

For Fallout 4 players who want a more atmospheric and shadow-rich interior experience without overhauling the entire game. If you're tired of flat, boring interiors and want a quick visual upgrade, this is for you. Skip if you prefer gameplay-changing mods—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install this mod and let it overwrite other lighting mods for best results.
- Test in a few different interiors (e.g., Diamond City shops, Far Harbor buildings) to see if the lighting fits your taste.
- Check the mod's posts section for any known conflicts with popular lighting overhauls like Vivid Weathers or NAC.
