📋 About This Mod
Bring back the shadows that were already there by reducing the skylight intensity. A skylight is basically a global light that applies to all shadows to give reduce the shadow intensity. I feel like the skylight is a bit too bright in Oblivion Remastered, making some scenes feel weird and removing shadows altogether.
This mod has zero performance impact and mostly changes outdoor lighting and shadows. Indoor lighting is a lot darker thanks to better auto-exposure settings and more local contrast. Make sure to bring a torch at night or in your dungeons.
Specifically tuned for both Hardware- and Software Lumen.

- Requires a game that uses Unreal Engine's Lumen system, so not universal.
For Unreal Engine gamers who want crisper, more realistic shadows without sacrificing frame rate. Perfect for those who find default Lumen too bright or washed out. Skip if you're looking for a full visual overhaul—this is a targeted shadow improvement.
