Why are there so many Oil Lamps in the game that shine indefinitely, everywhere where there are important objects? Why isn't any of the NPCs carrying an oil lamp or torch instead? Why does an oil lamp shine in a place where there are also fire barrels or a campfire or a fluor lamp? There is definetly to much light in the game. If you can see everywhere a light buoy there is no atmosphere anymore. Player char must trust in his senses. That's the reason for this mod, and many more.
What does it? Oil Lamps (also known as Lantern) have been removed from the game world. A few lamps remain in place, many have been completely disabled and others can be picked up, since the static object references were switched by misc item references. Although, these new lamps have less components to offer compared to the default lantern. The simple reason is the oil has burned out. New lamps are rare though, thus only a few have been swapped. Mostly lamps in interior are affected, almost all lamps in exterior world space is gone. There is no need to place a light source next to a raider so player char can see the raider.
Almost all lamps had light and mist attached, which has been removed too. Rarely, there was so much light that an entire cell needed to be modified, cleaned from mist and light so to speak.
Install as high as possible in your load order. All the mod does is to override the oil lamp, surrounding light and mist reference entries of vanilla FO4 and the DLCs in the game world. The mod can be installed mid-game and should directly affect the game world.
For your interest, the Editor ID OilLamp_Off is used for the misc item "Lantern". Despite that the following OilLamp## variants have been modified:
- OilLamp
- OilLampOn
- OilLampHandleUp
- OilLampOnHandleUp
The following act like both, a static object and a light, and have also been modified:
- DLC03LightOilLamp_Havok
- DLC03LightOilLamp_Havok02
Approx. 1000 oil lamps have been modified. And 2x, 3x the amount for light and mist. Over 5000 records in total.
