About this mod

Uses the basis of Lightweight Lighting, but keeps the vanilla Radstorms, and makes additional changes to:
God Rays, Image Space, Image Space Adapter records.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Changelogs
Image Spaces are visual/camera effects in the scene of certain interiors and specific times of the day.
Includes: Brightness/Contrast/Saturation, Depth of Field, Eye Adaptation, Bloom, Auto Exposure. 

Image Space Adapters are visual effects when something specific happens, such as many explosions, or when a creature poisons you; also includes various hit, slow-time, interface effects... These effects are mostly short term within seconds, with a few exceptions like sneaking... Some exceptions also include blurred interfaces like the PA Pip-Boy background... 
Includes: Brightness/Contrast/Saturation, Bloom, Depth of Field, Motion Blurs, Radial Blurs, Vignettes 

What was removed from Lightweight Lighting?
- Polluted Weather was removed as it is an odd effect that honestly doesn't fit with the rest...
- Which basically means Radstorms are back and this version barely edits Weather chances... 
- Default Weather patterns are kept intact, aside from the Glowing Sea getting 100% Radstorms :)

What is "Extended" with this variant of Lightweight Lighting?
- Bloom and various other Image Space values have been adjusted, but mostly reduced 
- Depth of Field Image Space values have essentially been eliminated, as they're unnecessary 
- Depth of Field, Motion Blur and Radial Blur Adapter values set to 0, to almost be eliminated 
- God Rays lowered by 1/4 ~ 1/2, sometimes increased, overall reduction of their intensities 
- Underwater Image Space set very close to defaults, to preserve realistic water depth 
- Various effects with the Adapters, so let me know if those effects are good or not 

Also, quoting the original mod's intent (with slight corrections):
This mod is for you if:
  • You want darker but more consistent interiors,
  • You want more atmospheric and darker nights (true LL offers easy dark nights),
  • You want more diverse weather (ehhhh kinda? IDK still vanilla but tweaked),
  • You don't want to sacrifice performance (just vanilla, no extra scripts),
  • You don't / can't run an ENB (ENB has huge performance costs),
  • You don't want any unnecessary cell edits (absolutely 0 cell edits),
  • You like the Vanilla color palette (it's not terrible honestly),
  • You feel Bloom is too overbearing in vanilla (definitely tweaked Bloom dooown).
Look elsewhere if you want:
  • Radically altered weather,
  • New lighting meshes/textures/effects,
  • Very dark interiors and nights (LL / LLE still make nights much darker than vanilla),
  • To test your GPU more than the vanilla game,
  • New/removed lights and candles.
