This mod replaces the game's particle-based candle flames with new, higher quality and better performance billboard-based ones. The mod does the replacing automatically through scripts, so it should be compatible with most if not all mesh replacers out of the box.

Vertical System component of this mod makes sure the flames actually stay vertical no matter the angle a candle is placed at (especially noticeable when held in hand), as well as providing modmakers a framework to create meshes with similar effects.
