About this mod

I always hated how radiation made everything glow.. but you. The environment, the enemies, the drinks, but not you. Hasn't been a mod to do it in years.

So yeah you'll glow now when you get irradiated. The higher the dose the more you glow. Also enemies can see the glow when sneaking (lowered sneak effect)

Permissions and credits
BEHOLD THE GLORY OF ATOM'S LIGHT!
SPREAD HIS BLINDING LOVE TO THE WHOLE WORLD AS WE AWAIT THE GREAT DIVISION AT HIS THUNDEROUS VOICE!
(Glow when Irradiated)

THOSE WHO DWELL IN THE DARK WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO CREEP UPON YOU!
(Light casting on surroundings)

FOR YOU ARE NOW A BEACON OF HIS GUIDING LIGHT IN THIS FORSAKEN WORLD! ALL WILL SEE AND SEEK TO FIND! (Planned NPC reaction)

NAY YOU SHALL NO LONGER HIDE YOUR TRUE SELF BUT BE BLINDING IN YOUR HOPE FOR THE GREAT DIVISION! (Lower sneak.. cause you're glowing)
*Brought to you by West Tek*
















You may be asking yourself why? Well, because I could and got no help by asking. There once was a mod for Fallout 3 that did this so I went and did the same for my game because I missed it. Then it started snowballing with a few extra features, and now I guess we are gonna keep going with it.


As you elevate through the different levels of Rad poisoning, you'll get an increasing glow effect. This effect also illuminates the surrounding, but not as much as a Glowing one (you aren't one after all and fully clothed... I hope)

Be careful though you aren't the only one able to see Atom's Glory. The more you glow the lower your Sneak skill

This works well with Dynamic Ghoulification as far as I know.
Also, should work with the Ghoulified mod... I use both    : )


INSTALL
Pretty straightforward you can either download with manager or just drag and drop the GlowwhenIrradiated.esp into the data folder. Activates the .esp


LOAD ORDER
I personally place it above all my weather mods, but below my patches, which should be at the bottom of your load order. This mod adds effects to Radiation disease scripts already in the vanilla game.

It doesn't interfere with the hardcore radiation mods I have this way because it's not altering any rates or resistances. They however may alter it in reverse


Update December 29th 2024:

Added sneak reduction based on glow intensity (actually radiation level but the illusion works)
Optimized for fullest compatibility and reduced requirements for all versions consolidating them into one file


Planned Features
The illusion of slowly turning into a Glowing One or a Reaver (the Fallout 3 OP kind) by adding their attacks at higher levels, and after being at said levels for so long.
NPC reaction with varying severity dependent upon you guessed it the Rad/Glow level



!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


[MODDING DISCLAIMER]
ALWAYS MAKE A NEW GAME TO TEST THE MOD IF YOU SEE AN ISSUE. IF THE ISSUE PERSISTS THEN COME HERE. THIS ISN'T JUST WITH THIS MOD BUT ALL MODS THAT ALTER LOAD ORDER (.esm/.esp files)

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



KNOWN PROBLEMS
I use this alongside 467 other mod files (including NVR, ReShade, TTW, tweaks, tweaks, tweaks, overhauls, and more tweaks) and have NO bugs/glitches.

However a couple of people have had it not show the Glow effect.

Please give a load order by posting a bug report in the appropriate section here on the mod page. I'm more than happy to help
