Not quite what I need. I cannot for the life of me find any mod or glitch fix that counteracts not being able to see candlelight, night eye, or QuickLight in First Person!
So glad I found your mod and it fixed the problem for me - the lighting for me in 1st and 3rd person views are now the same! I'm using the latest GOG version (1.6.1179.0). I think the problem is mostly related to ENB, as I never had the issue until I started using ENBs. I recently got a better PC that could support ENB and some advanced graphical overhauls, so was pretty disappointed at first when playing a Mage and it was so dark in 1st person even with the Candlelight going. Tried PRT ENB first with a few diff presets but actually the DOF made me nauseous so tried a few others, settled on Re-engaged ENB - I really like it. Anyhow, I primarily use 1st person view so this lighting issue was really bugging me and now I can get back to delving into dungeons and blasting Draugr!
Unfortunately, I made some changes in my modlist and afterward the candlelight orb change from this mod was too bright in 1st person and without this it was too dark. I'm not sure which change(s) exactly caused it. But, I came across another mod "Velexia's Candlelight and Magelight Edit" that took care of the issue and gives the light a better color IMHO. I'd recommend you look at that mod if you are having similar issues. Happy adventuring!
I really loved using this mod, since the spell is a very cool way to explore dark areas; that being said, I just upgraded to use ENBs and unfortunately this mod makes the screen too bright, and modless imitates the effect of this mod, so I will have to shelf it.
Heavily recommended for anyone not using any ENBs, save yourself inventory space from those pesky torches and start using candlelight! Rightfully earned my endorsement.
This mod turns first-person light into third-person light. There's another mod, "Candlelight Magelight No Ugly Glow FX," that turns third-person light into first-person light, I like that one. The original third-person light is actually too white for me, and the original first-person light is relatively comfortable.
Hello, this is wonderful. Do you know of a way to move the wisp out of first person view so that the brightness is there and you can see the glowing wisp in third person but it's not in your face in third person? I'm not sure if that's easily doable, but basically just have the brightness but not being able to see the wisp floating around in first person would be incredible.
Aah that's unfortunate since it's quite distracting, but if it's a limitation of the game then I guess that's that! Would there be a way to perhaps have it way off to the side of the screen and as high as it can go without triggering the effect? Or is that very difficult? Just curious. Thanks so much for your work on this :-)
I just tested that other mod. Works great. The first-person lighting and colors are better, since you don't have a light in your face (notably with ENB eye adaptation and point lighting color curve).

So the only option would be to slightly move a tiny bit, but it has to remain in view...
EDIT: I will let the mod author answer the other questions.
