A bit late to the party with this one - Thank you Wrinkly, I have seen this mentioned a few times but only just got round to giving it a whirl.

Glad I did, another immersion essential for me.

This is great. For one it adds to the immersion, but it can also give stealthy characters an upper hand in bandit-infested places. Just slap on my ring of night eye, and silently murder every one. Buahahahahaha.

Are there any Real Lights comparability patches out there? You can run this just fine with it, but you have extreme black darkness at a majority of times which causes anomalies. I would not mind making a simple patch if permission is allowed. It would probably require me to edit every interior manually, however.

i love this mod, it literally makes the use of torches and visibility/light spells essential to gameplay and not just a little flash effect

good job, ty for the time and effort you put into this. :D (I also use sneak based senses* and that helps to make this all the more fun.)

It works perfectly fine with Real Lights (the All Natural version, of course), I don't see why it shouldn't.

Cava Obscura is better than Darker Dungeons and Let There Be Darkness, IMO:

- It removes some artificial lights that remain with the two latter mods ("Cava Obscura includes some replacement meshes for a few mist/dust effects that turns them invisible. This is because they are not affected by the lighting in-game and so show up even in the dark, as if they are glowing.")

Such as this, in the very first dungeon (prison escape): http://img220.images...04061522293.jpg

- Completely disabling the fog, as Let There Be Darkness does, actually produces a less realistic and beautiful effect (darkness is never 100% black in real life, except in a completely closed and empty environment).

Can someone please tell me if this mod is compatible with Thieves Arsenal? It said mods that add scrips to lights could cause serious problems so im hesitant but the screenshots look really good.

Good mod! I'm just wondering if I should use a mod that adds torches to the people that live in the caves. Thank you! :)

You have... A filter patch

Why did I even bother with let there be darkness? You're wonderful.
