✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-tested with 331 endorsements and 7,907 downloads.
- Does exactly what it says—no bloat, just better sunglare.
- Easy to install and remove if you don't like it.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2011—likely incompatible with newer game patches.
- Only affects sunglare, so if you want broader visual overhauls, look elsewhere.
For players who find the default sunglare too harsh or unrealistic and want a quick fix. Also for mod collectors who appreciate small, focused tweaks. Skip if you're on a modern game version or want comprehensive graphics improvements.
