Author's Notes

[]First off, I apologize for the updates. It was my mistake for not testing proper with a clean install. [/]
[]Lighting Companion Versions are back. It's not fully conflict free. I had to disable cutscene env's in order to make it work. I have set the grim effects to half what its default setting was (see below on how to adjust the values for yourself). I set to half because the default value will override other lighting mods.[/]
[]Make sure to give the Grim Lighting Companion higher priority over other lighting mods. (see screenshots)[/]
