This mod changes the bright white headlamp of power armors into dim white headlamp.
=========================
Why do I make this mod?
I like white lights. All lights with other colors ruin the original game theme and make objects hard to observe.
However, the default white light of power armor has too much intensity, making a "tunnel" effect that greatly hurt my eyes.
So I made this mod to reduce the intensity of the power armor's white light. See the pictures.
=========================
[Update 12/13/2015]
Added version 1.1. It fixes a small visual bug that creates rainbow effect at some indoor places.
Version 1.1 is smooth version. It is recommended to use the newest version only.
To upgrade from older version, simply copy and override.
[Update 12/11/2015]
I made a new texture that turns the original light into a smooth light. That means there is no gap between the most bright intensity and the second most bright intensity, etc.
=========================
Installation
This mod is small, it contains only one texture file(.dds), so you can
Step 1 unzip and drop it into the Data folder
Step 2 change in the Fallout4.ini from
sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\
into
sResourceDataDirsFinal=strings\, textures\, meshes\, scripts\, sound\, music\, misc\, shadersfx\, interface\,
Step 2 Follow this
instruction instead.
(You can skip step 2 if you've already done it when installing other mods)
In game change the headlamp mod to bright white and you can see the result
=========================
Uninstallation
Delete the file of this mod.
=========================
What is special about this mod?
There are already many light mods in the nexus but I cant find the right one I am looking for so I decided to make this myself.(Although I was greatly inspired by other light mods)
It is simple so it should be compatible with any other mod. If they change the same file, simply override it.
I use GIMP to change the dds file. If you want, you can do it yourself, just take 2 minutes.
=========================
Other Notice
The white PA hud is not included in this mod. It is made by other great people in the nexus.
If you want to make the change to the mining helmet: First search and install the "legendary lamps"; Secondly download my mod, then rename the .dds file to the appropriate name according to the "legendary lamps" description(check the mining folder). In the end override with this mod.
