ssviper5 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 I'm not sure what could possibly be causing it, but I would appreciate it if there is a tweak to be added in SkyrimPrefs or otherwise to calm it down: Certain light sources (candles, torches) in certain places (such as Snow Veil Sanctum, outside the Thalmor Embassy, and outside Lakeview Manor) are absolutely BLINDINGLY bright, and this is with normal settings set to lowest; if I approach Thalmor Embassy or my own Lakeview Manor at night it is as if the area is completely consumed with radiation. Attached is a picture of the first big chamber in Snow Veil Sanctum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrcold1 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 any chance you have "More dynamic Shadows and Striping Fixed - by Puuloo" installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssviper5 Posted December 29, 2012 Author Share Posted December 29, 2012 I don't appear to. I temporarily had Knightshade's "Improved Interior Lighting (For Realistic Lighting Mods)" installed but have since uninstalled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssviper5 Posted December 29, 2012 Author Share Posted December 29, 2012 Since discovering that this was an all-around problem I removed all light-affecting mods I could find... while the effect has been obvious based on what the mod was supposed to do, there is still something telling these random torches/candles/what-have-yous to shine brighter than the sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginnyfizz Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I would give this mod Enhanced Lights and FX A try. It makes lights such as candles, torches and fires radiate less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssviper5 Posted December 29, 2012 Author Share Posted December 29, 2012 Unfortunately it didn't work :( but thank you. I'm wondering if a re-install is in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssviper5 Posted December 29, 2012 Author Share Posted December 29, 2012 I fixed the lighting issue by deleting the SkyrimPrefs.ini file and starting it up; it auto-detected and I tweaked the settings back to where they were, and will later make sure any changes in the .ini that should be there are there. I guess that a mod I had at some point hard-wired the SkyrimPrefs to be crazy. Thanks for your help, and I may go ahead and keep that Enhanced Lights mod you recommended :) Thank you very much!
