✅ Pros

  • Huge community trust—over 6,600 endorsements and 151,000 downloads.

  • Only changes the glow effect—doesn't alter weapon models or enchantment visuals beyond that.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, you'll need to convert the textures to the new format—use a tool like Cathedral Assets Optimizer.

  • Check the mod's comments for user screenshots if you want to see the effect before installing.
