About this mod

Allows you to turn off most of the light sources in Cyrodiil.

Permissions and credits
Changelogs
This mod allows you to suppress many light sources, providing you can access the flames, for a certain time (the light comes back later).
It also grants Dousing Arrows you can loot or find with any good Ammo Vendor. These arrows have no other effect than dousing lights.
The quiver and arrows are from the Ayleid Glass mod because it was the only mod with crystalline arrows I could get my hands on with a free resource tag.
 
Patches are provided for:
Better Cities
Real Lights
All Natural - Real Lights

_________________________
Known Issues:
As I was testing the mod I discovered that many lights in Oblivion were fake, as in they look like a light source (e.g. a bunch of candles on a plate) but they are in fact a fake static item with a separate light source.
I will not edit each cell of the game to track them and add a real light to them. The compatibility with other mods would greatly suffer from this.
To enjoy extinguishing most if not all lights, use the Real Lights mod in conjunction with this one and bring the darkness to Oblivion.

You will need to wait for 5 in-game hours after your last extinguishing of a light before uninstalling this mod. Otherwise the lights you turned off would be disabled forever (unless you reinstall this mod). Just just do a quick nap or wait in game to make sure the last light you extinguished is back before uninstalling or changing version.

Incompatibilities:
Mods that alter the Vanilla lights (like Turn off Lights) will not be compatible with this mod.
Thieves Arsenal is expected to have minor incompatibilities but I use both of them. The last to load is the one which will get the scripts on the lights. Know that most of the lights in Thieves Arsenal are not from the Vanilla game so there is not much risk.
