📋 About This Mod
If you use NVR Old World Blues has a number of ridiculously bloomy objects, requiring you to nerf your settings incredibly hard. Primarily The Sink is absolutely awful but other meshes could use a few adjustments too. This fixes that by lowering the emissive values on the nifs.
Put anywhere as long as it's not being overwritten by another mod.
No esps or scripts just a few meshes.
