Based Lighting Configs

ABOUT

This mod overhauls lights in two steps: delete all lights, then start from scratch using modern features of modern frameworks. The artistic direction leans into realistic light levels, a cohesive color palette, and accurate placement that adapts to your load order. Everything that should produce light does, down to the last candle.
