✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solves a specific annoyance that many first-person players notice.
- Community-approved with 319 endorsements and 70k downloads.
- Recently updated, so it's likely compatible with current game versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Niche fix—only affects torch light in paused menus, so if that doesn't bother you, it's pointless.
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter lighting or menu behavior.
- Small scope means it won't address other first-person visual glitches.
For Skyrim players who play in first person and find the torch light detaching in menus immersion-breaking. If you rarely use torches or don't notice the glitch, you can skip this—it's purely a visual fix.
💡 Beginner Tips

- If you use a mod that changes menu behavior, test this fix after installing to confirm it works.
- Since it's a simple fix, you can easily remove it if it causes issues without affecting your save.
