ECPLW adds complex particle lights to the windows of all major cities (except Windhelm currently in WIP) , DLC2 Skaal Village, Solitude and Whiterun farmhouses. The aesthetic result mainly depends on the ENB preset used and the screenshots you can see were taken using Rudy ENB. ECPLW is 100% compatible with everything.
for all those who have flickering issues due to the ENB Light node this is the solution: copy/paste/replace the whole [COMPLEXPARTICLELIGHTS] section inside your enbseries.ini with the one inside the spoiler below.
all patches for the old LoS II - Tamriel Master Lights.esp have been updated and sent to the respective authors so please do not ask for more information about these patches or I will be forced to close the posts section!
thank you for your attention and above all for your understanding.
Thanks for answering my previous question but I do have another. I decided to install this mod midgame and I am using JK's Skyrim as well ... in your description you said : Important Note: If you are using JK Skyrim do not install the "No Lights Patch" since LoS II patch is meant to be used without it.
>> Question : patch a ( 1 ) in the FOMOD is ticking my JK' Skyrim ( automatically - VORTEX does that ) but there is "no lights patch" ( as you wrote it above ), just the LoS Patch a ( or 1 ) .... should I leave it checked or not please ?
as I explain in the description, you don't have to use JK's "no light patch" since LoS II JK patch is meant to be used with the standard JK plugin, my FOMOD will automatically select the patches you need
I use a lot of your mods in my game, and when I discovered this particular one, I was excited to add it to my load order. Unfortunately, I deleted it just as fast... I'm not saying that this mod is bad, but personally, I think it's a step back from the "Lanterns of Skyrim - MCM" version. Some of the new features here, like the animations for wind, bugs around the lights... are immersive and nice. I don't mind a couple extra esp's for separate mods for the last version to get the same effects. The reasons I went back to the older mod is compatibilities and the fact that the light level and color from the lanterns in this version are so dim that it makes them worthless at night. The MCM version, we had different options for the brightness, and the MCM version worked fine with ELFX exteriors. With this version, you end up losing a bunch of lights that ELFX exteriors added to the game, resulting in making everything darker because you lose those lights using this version. I appreciate the time and effort you put into making these mods... Thank you! It's just that in my opinion, this newer version needs a little bit more polish...
I appreciated both the comment and the criticism but you have to consider one fundamental thing, Lanterns of Skyrim II is a mod designed and arranged for ENB users and in fact, as you can see from the screenshots below, the lights, for those who use the an ENB preset, have the right level of brightness. Regarding the differences with ELFX Exteriors, its obvious that there are some but compared to the Anamorhus mod, the only spot that I have not illuminated are the Whiterun ramparts, the rest of the world, DLC included, is perfectly illuminated, in the exact same locations In fact, I would say that I added many other lights that don't exist at all in ELFX Exteriors, especially inside all the settlements and within the 5 major cities, you could easly check for yourself.
The patch for Midwood Isle contains two `Could not be resolved` errors under Worldspace > Block -1, -1 > 0xDC0 (FlorinCity04Stables), which block dyndolod generation. Fix is easy but it will be good to update the patch.
Hey there. Perhaps a strange question regarding LoS II / WiZ Signs & JK's Skyrim, but, i read at desc page:
"Note 1) if you want both the lanterns and signs movable by the wind, you can download my mod WiZkiD Signs".
So, i disabled LoS II, and switched to WiZkiD Signs ,to get the best of both of your mods, (LoS II+W/Signs), yet no lanterns at all around if i use only Signs mod. If i enable back LoS II, road lanterns are back, but then, even with LoS II+JK's patches, still getting duplicate Lanterns at buildings, both in WR/RW.
I had the original Lanterns of Skyrim installed, is it safe to install this mod and remove the 'old' one mid playthrough? Also, Is it necessary to remove the original Lanterns of Skyrim? NMM doesn't detect conflicts

Thanks so much for your help bro ...
Have not used the old mod for a very long time ... I would like to know if I can install this new mod midgame please ?
Thanks,
Do they disable laterns for this town or something?
Edit: I already understand, no need to answer

Is there some other patch that needed? Searched all around, and nothing. Thanks in advance.
Also, Is it necessary to remove the original Lanterns of Skyrim? NMM doesn't detect conflicts
