If you come across locations with inaccurate lighting, please submit suggestions with location and screenshots (preferably using the bug report/debug files from Weather Switcher)! ☺️
Misty's, Judy's Apartment, Coyote Bar, Lizzie's Bar!
Do you have Night City Visuals Nulled installed? If so, try looking under the Bug section for a workaround. There is a listing for the Pyramid Song quest. I had the same issue and this worked for me.
Dear author, in the future, is it possible that you will focus on a game without ray tracing? I love what you did, but unfortunately I get strong flickering(
I typically don’t decide what color a light should be; I just remove the fake light and replace it with the correct source (that's why the stairwell lights are no longer green). In some cases, I have to either decide to replicate the existing look and feel with the fake light by replacing the light mesh, increasing the saturation of the existing source, or simply swapping the fake light for the real source color. Because Judy's apartment had so much purple originally, when I replaced the fake lights with their true source color, it was lacking color completely, which is why I enhanced the purple from the fish tank. I may swap the source to a blue one to more accurately represent the original, though.
The graffiti isn’t highlighted because the light can’t physically cast on it. Previously, the fake light was tilted 25 degrees lower than the actual projection should be.
Edit: Swapped the fish tank light to closer match the original and made a few further refinements.
Holy moly Judy's apartment looks SO MUCH BETTER now. I noticed the smoke/fog effects are missing in the exterior of the apartment screenshots (stairs, corridors). Is that intentional?
Hi, I found another thing that is might worth taking a look at. This door leading to the Cyberpsycho in Pacifica (near GIM) has a fake light on it that will activate when the player opens the door, and the light is extremely bright, especially during overcast or foggy weather in Nova City 2
Oh, damn. That's a good one. Unfortunately, this light comes from an entity (the door) and I would have to replace the door itself or edit the entity file to fix the light. Do you know if this location is tied to any quests?

is it likely due to this mod? using it together with NOVA City and NOVA LUT

Screen 5 - Why change Judy's aquarium from blue to purple? Imo blue looked more natural.
Screen 12 - I miss the warm highlight of the grafitti there, added a lot of mood. Maybe you could tweak it further?

The smoke isn't missing, it's just not illuminated as significantly by the ceiling lights.

I can simply replace the door but they it doesn't lock while you're inside fighting the Cyberpsycho. I will look into another option.
