📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 311 endorsements and nearly 20k downloads.
- Adds atmospheric lighting variety without major gameplay changes.
- Optional Dwemer lantern toggle gives you control over the look.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects cups, wine bottles, and Dwemer lanterns—limited scope.
- Requires Base Object Swapper (BOS) to work, so you'll need that dependency.
- Compatibility risk with other mods that alter the same objects.
For Skyrim players who want subtle visual variety in taverns and Dwemer ruins. If you're into immersive lighting tweaks and don't mind a small mod, this is for you. Skip if you want major overhauls or don't use BOS.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Base Object Swapper installed and enabled, or the swaps won't happen.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install this easily and track conflicts.
- If you use other mods that change cups or lanterns, check load order to avoid overwrites.
