Your flashlight is still misplaced and points at the ceiling? You've got a huge circle thing instead of the texture you chose? And it seems to come from across the room behind you?
it may be silly but...
Before doing what the OP says in the description to fix those, check that you have enabled modding in the .ini files!
For Mod Organizer users: Mod Organizer creates separate ini files for the game to use by default in an attempt to protect your original ini files, meaning that if you edit your ini files outside of Mod Organizer, you will still encounter issues as though the above changes to enable mods had not been added to your ini files. This can be fixed by selecting the "configure profiles" button at the top of Mod Organizer and then unchecking "use profile-specific Game INI files." This will cause the game to read your actual ini files and correctly apply the fix to enable mods.
This may be kind of niche as it only applies to MO users, but after hours of downloading the mod in different ways and failing to find a solution to my problem, I thought I would post here in an attempt to save someone else some time. For me, the issue was having a huge circle of light with none of the selected textures or sounds being applied.
Install via Vortex, go through the setup where i choose the light emit setup position and texture etc. YET when i load the game all i get is the same OLD AWFUL default pip boy green tint ambient.
What am i doing wrong? Yes, i did edit the .INI files as you advised.

Hope that helped, I myself forgot to do it after a clean install of FO4.
