📋 About This Mod

This mod allows the mod Illustrious Whiterun to benefit from Lux's split meshes to work around the lighting limit as described below:

Vanilla Skyrim lights are limited to no more than 4 shadowed sources on screen (including sun/moonlight).

Please give credit where credit is due, GGUINT(Killing. Joke) and instantkorr split all these meshes which is very time consuming, all I did was add some shader flags and texture paths to the same meshes.

And obviously thanks to winedave for another incredible city retexture.
