📋 About This Mod

This mod contains SMIM meshes and textures.

These candles already had a slight glow... but I feel that it was too slight. So, I made this for those who want more intensity heheh

Check the images for comparisons (using Silent Horizons ENB with Lensflares disabled) :D

INSTALLATION:

1) Install manually or using any mod manager.

2) Be sure that you have this settings in enbseries.ini file:

EnableComplexParticleLights=true

EnableBigRange=true

REQUIREMENTS:

-An ENB preset to enable the particle lights effect.

-I included the bones and candles' textures from SMIM; so... this mod is standalone and does NOT require SMIM.

COMPATIBILITY:

-NOT compatible with mods that alter the same meshes. Those would require a patch.

-If you use SMIM, load this mod after it and overwrite the files.

-Compatible with ELFX. Just overwrite the 8 conflicting meshes with this mod.

-Compatible with Lux (patch provided under optional downloads).

CREDITS:

-Rudy102 and Brumbek for creating and giving permission to use some of their assets here on nexus :)

*note: recently I got permission from Nick aka Brumbek to earn DP from this mod.

-Kulharin for enabling parallax on these meshes.

-InstantKor for providing the Lux compatible meshes.

  • If you're using a mod manager, enable the mod and check in-game at a Nordic ruin like Bleak Falls Barrow to see the effect.
