About this mod
This mod simply adds some additional Particle Lights using the functionality of the Light Limit Fix mod. No need for mesh edits, this is all handled through individual .ini files. Featuring a modular fomod installer and preview images, including some before/after shots!
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
Five modular options available in a simple fomod format:
As well as these options, there is another main file which has culling enabled in some places. This means that the particle lights will prevent the effect textures that they work off from rendering (again, all this is non-destructive and handled through ini files). Personally, I wouldn't recommend using the culling version but it might provide a slight performance increase for people on very low end systems.
Requirements:
Light Limit Fix. If you don't have LLF installed, this mod won't do anything. It will just sit there all lonely :'(
Installation:
Install with the mod manager of your choice. If you prefer to install manually, you can go through each folder numbered from 500-504 (5 different folders) and extract each one you want to Data\ParticleLights. You can check the fomod folder or this mod page for preview images.
Compatibility:
Should be compatible with all other mods out there at the time of typing this. There aren't that many mods out yet that use this technique that LLF provides and the ones that are out thus far don't touch the same files as me.
However, whilst it's highly 'compatible' on a technical level, I would still recommend reading through the known issues section so you have a better idea of what to expect in the way of strange interactions this mod can have with other assets in the game.
If you use Embers XD, you can still use this mod, but you may not benefit from some things like fire magic. It won't be 'incompatible', it just won't do anything. If you're using Embers XD, use the first optional file from the topmost recommended mod below. Also give the main file a download and show support.
Recommendations:
LLF Particle Lights instead of Fake Glow. This mod works the same way as mine but we touch different things. If you're looking for more coverage, I would highly recommend this. I would also recommend it to Embers XD users.
Simply Faster Ladders. Starfield mod. Shameless Plug.
Better Shadow Coverage. Starfield mod. Shameless Plug.
R91 Assault Rifle Re-Remastered. Fallout NV mod. Shameless Plug.
NS MP 40 kNVSE Animation Set. Fallout NV mod. Shameless Plug.
Known Issues:
Due to the way this mod works, I would have to call it 'experimental' to some degree. For instance, it may also add lights to any fx texture that is named the same as my ini files and it's not realistic for me to test an entire playthrough to see what will come up elsewhere. Also, the way that the lingering fire works is 'technically' incorrect even if it looks nice, because the lights are attached to the smoke. Smoke shouldn't emit light.
Smoking Torches and Candles and mods like it may cause noticeable FPS drops for some people when used in combination with this mod. You can disable the Fire Magic Lingering Lights module if you use this mod.
TL:DR If you're experiencing issues, try removing the Fire Magic Lingering Lights module first. It's the most likely to cause issues.
