Lighting Issues

[extragoodness]

I'm wondering if anyone might have a clue what could be causing these lighting issues. First is some lights going in and out depending on where I am standing or looking like the first few pictures. The second is the really bad lighting issues in the last couple of pictures. Can't figure out what is causing them or how to fix it. I'm using Rudy's Cathedral ENB, Cathedral, Windows Shadows, ELE, Tamriel Master Lights, ENB Light. ELE and ENB Light currently are off because I thought they may have been the problem but I'm trying to use them all. I removed clothes/armor and weapon mods from the lists below because I figured they weren't involved and would just add a lot to scroll through

Lighting in Skyrim is difficult to get right... TBH, I don't think ENB or a weather mod are to blame here.

 

One massive problem with lighting in Skyrim is an engine limitation: The game won't render more than 4 shadow casting lights at once. AFAIK hardcoded, so nothing you can do about it. Unfortunately, the game often makes "questionable" choices regarding which light sources to render...I think that's exactly what's happening here.

 

If you have several mods placing light sources in the game world (JK's cities, Tamriel Master lights, Lanterns of Skyrim....), you can easily get more than 4 shadow casting lights in certain places. So the only solution would be to reduce the number of light sources. Try disbaling mods, that change lighting and especially ones that ADD light sources and see if this helps.

 

For the problems with torches, you might also try one of the dozens of torch mods. Unfortunately I can't give a recommendation here - I seldom use torches so I don't care too much for torch light.
