📋 About This Mod
Witcher 3 lighting is multi-layered. There's basically "FAKE" lighting everywhere. However cutscenes have even more and some certain cutscenes have a lot more. It was meant to make them look better but it's overdone for my and most people's taste.
-

]Cutscene Lighting Edits ---- left ON things lights that have shadow casting[]Soft Disable Lighting ---- only removal of character/spot lights
