I used to put this in

This is equivalent to: Disabling character lights and Fixing a lighting bug
It unfortunately also removes all specular maps, makes shadows really dark, and everything else really bright. Sick of being unable to see, I made this low contrast Reshade preset.
I also found recently that you can still have enlighten enabled and fix the stuff up above.
I still use this reshade preset though, just with levelsplus unchecked.
I now put this instead, it fixes the stuff above but doesn't disable all the specular maps and cause weird shadows.

this doesn't disable the fake character lighting, but for that you can scroll down some more.
Reshade also has a framerate limiter that I didn't know about. So people with high fps can set this in falloutprefs.ini:
iPresentInterval=0
and still cap FPS to whatever hz their monitor is:
These are my shadow settings (fixes floating shadows)
