Description

Last updated at 19:41, 26 Nov 2014 Uploaded at 2:00, 7 Nov 2014

This mod intends to adjust every type of lighting inside the Skyrim game so it will both look better with ENB and make it a lot easier to customize an ENB preset without ruining some parts of the games look. Which is the case with the vanilla Skyrim lighting in some parts depending on the ENB settings used.

This is only a small part of the ELE Suite. I uploaded this as a seperated mod because it's the most used content from the ELE Suite as well as being the most complete part of it.

MOD FEATURES

    - This covers changes in the Imagespaces and Lighting Templates which have been configured for more natural occurring colors.

    - I've made the interior Direct Lighting to be better used as a subtle indirect lighting. Which I have found serves as a good character lighting, as well as bringing a good visual look to ice and snow caves.

    - I've corrected the visual "bug" with dungeons looking bright as day. Ihave changed all of the interior classed cells so they would look more natural based on the location of it. Temple of Kynareth is a "bright" classed interior while the Dragonsreach Basement is a "Dark" classed interior.

    - Assigned special "hack" values ot the imagespaces to be used for ENBSeries coding, which allows Interior and Dungeon seperated visual controls in the shader files. An example file on how to set that up is found in the download section.

    - * I've configured the Directional Ambient lighting to render as proper hemispheric ambient lighting.

    - * I've changed the way the Day/Night detection behaves based on the amount of exterior light that shine in. I assigned it based on the total amount of sunlight holes in each interior. I HAVE NOT REMOVED THE INTERIOR SKIES!

    - * I've made it so that interiors with dungeons in them have been properly lit based on the location. Pinewatch is a good example of such a place, it starts in a farmhouse leading down to a dungeon.

    - * Implemented true adaptive interiors and not just assigned a Day/Night dynamic emittance to some of the interior light bulbs. This feature will change the ambient lighting based on the time of day.

    - * I've also made some performance optimizations to all cells that benefitted from such edits. And it won't interfere with Skyrim Project Optimization either, in fact I recommend using that with or without ELE.


* I HAVE YET TO MAKE ALL OF THE CHANGES DESCRIBED ABOVE BUT ALL OF THE THINGS MENTIONED WILL BE IMPLEMENTED AND POSSIBLY MORE FEATURES WILL COME.

COMPATABILITY

In the full ELE - Suite I split each lighting change into their own module. With this ELE - Lite Suite there are two options, either "only Interior Lighting" or "Default ELE - Lite".
The default version of ELE - Lite has the Interior Lighting module combined with these ELE modules;

  • Spell and Torch Lighting - Changes the lights of the Torch and most spells lights equiped in the hand
  • ELE Plugin - RS Light Color - Alters the Parent Light Bulbs colors to "ELE - standardized" colors
  • ELE Plugin - FX Emittance - Alters the FX Weathers RGB values used to make Light Bulbs and FX effects change it's color based on the time of day.

The additional modules are only contained in the main module, ELE_S_Lite.esp.





I will update this list of info as I go along but now it at least have some basic info on the changes and compatibility.
