📋 About This Mod

Disable the forced UE5 LumenRT to gain additional performance on lower-end hardware and handheld devices, such as the Steam Deck.

This mod disables the forced Lumen lighting system in the UE5-powered Oblivion Remaster, giving your rig (or your Steam Deck) a much-needed breather. Whether you’re roaming the Gold Coast or diving into Oblivion gates, you’ll now enjoy fewer slowdowns and more glorious frames per second.

Perfect for:

  • []Potato PCs 🥔[/]

    []Steam Deck adventurers 🧙‍♂️[/]

LUMEN BEGONE! – Because Cyrodiil doesn’t need raytraced god rays to be divine.
