    Why you, at your skill level, just try to improve a closed source game engine?
    Why not improve something like, dunno, OpenMW engine, help extend the list of supported games to the other TES games and make your creation eternal?

      Skyrim is so complicated that OpenMW won't replace it for a long, long time if ever.

      @doodlum There's actually a guy working on porting both Oblivion and Skyrim into OpenMW. Last I checked, he had Oblivion's whole worldspace, NPCs, UI, sound and music, and even animations successfully ported into OpenMW. Now, the NPCs didn't have any AI or quests but they were there, in Oblvion's worldspace, with Oblivion's UI and animations and sound and music, all inside of OpenMW.

    Sorry for the dumb question, but... is this ENB, or something akin of Community Shaders?

      It's the reason Community Shaders happened in the first place. Doodlez's magnum opus, engine-level fix for light limit. No ENB required, but ENB Lights will be recognized and rendered as normal engine-level lights.

      Oh, I see. Thanks for the clarification. Is that already a thing? I mean, using enb lights mods and they are rendered as normal engine lights as of current Community Shaders version? Or is that upcoming? I have Comunity Shaders installed, but havent got to play with it yet (still finishing up my modlist).

      It is still very much WIP. Hard to say when Doodman will release it, hopefully soon

    honestly this maybe one of the biggest breakthrough mods for Skyrim right along with dyndolod and skse just the fact that it can even work with dyndolod and come out looking great. I can't wait till this gets fleshed out more and has shadows and stuff running. I'm a huge enb fan but this would take so much burden off enb and remove that enb light frame drop.

    How is performance not affected that much by it? Does Doodlez secretly have access to the Creation Engine

      I think it was explained in one of doodlum's previous posts. and why ENB particle lights are slow to render. ENB particle lights are rendered as meshes. 

      Currently these lights are 5.5 times faster than ENB's version(!) in this testing case, because the rendering of these particles and meshes is blocked entirely, since they are replaced with true light sources. The cost of the particle lights comes from them being rendered as meshes. If meshes are left enabled then this techniques costs slightly more than ENB does.

      From this, I assume "light sources" are treated differently by the renderer (maybe involving hardware lights applying vertex shading across the scene), rather than a light source being rendered as a separate "mesh". But this is just a guess based on my very limited understanding of graphics.

      Edit: Also, ENB uses shadows. This Light fix doesn't. (In my view, this is fine because the effect of having additional lights, adds a huge amount to the overall look of a scene. Shadows on lights in many cases, are barely noticable, especially from small light sources like candles. So by not rendering shadows, it isn't really detrimental to the look of a scene, and great for improving the visual quality for low-end PC's).

      I haven't tested the enb shadows.

      I do have a relatively fast shadows algorithm already, I'm just not a fan of the look because lights will still cast through tables etc. same as ENB.
