Edit: Looked at this in TES4Edit and it seems to remove the Dynamic flag from a bunch of spell lights, but it also tweaks some of the other values for SpellLightSpellMedium for some reason.
I think this fix is already included in Wrye Bash ? correct me if I'm wrong I recall there is option to turn of dynamic flag in all light carriable objects
Afaik, Wrye Bash incudes an option to remove Flicker flag from all lights, while this mod removes Dynamic flag from spells. I use both, and the framerate improvement is noticeable.
I'm actually mindblown that the fix for this was so simple. I can do huge battles in heavily modded Skyrim/New Vegas/etc with a decent framerate and keep a solid FPS, but three torches in Oblivion brings my game to an unplayable crawl on modern hardware.
I'm so glad I found this and it really should be more well known. I'd log my FPS at about 2-3 when NPC's ganged up on me with torches and spells, and now it stays above 30 even in huge battles.
After searching FOREVER for a fix for the light lag that I get when NPCs are casting a million freaking light spells that lag me to death, this mod has fixed that issue for me. Not exactly sure how it works, but it works.
Major Mods: MOO+OOO+ Frans.
Before the Mod - Major lag when fighting Amazons, who just love to cast a ton of light spells... LAAAAG! After the Mod - They still casts their spell, but no lag = AWESOME!
