Weird pink beam/shape on screen
I have had this strange pink beam/shape on my screen for a while now, it shows up mostly when I'm outdoors and sometimes in cells.
A pic that shows the error: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2981102895
I play the game on windows but with the dxvk fix because my game crashes constantly without it.
I already verified the game files and my specs exceed the needed minimum for the game to run.
I would really appriciate any help I can get.

I managed to fix the issue, it was the visible night sky 2k. I removed it and instead inatalled enhanced night sky which has several fixes in it.

Here is my load order:

If you provide an actual screenshot someone may be able to recognize the issue.

Was not sure how to do this since it's my first time posting here.
Added a photo now.

Did you actually begin the game using Start Me UP? Because that's known to interfere with things. Same with tunnel snake stuff, and also you seem to have something that mentions fog.

Not sure whether it's the fog one but since it is primarily visual I'm gonna throw that as a "maybe" it's that?

You have a pile of likely conflicting or redundant mods in there which I would strongly recommend looking at ALL of the recommended use/ load order / known problems if you can.
I see from the HUD that your flashlight is on. is it only with the flashlight on that this occurs?

I did start the game with start me up, and had no choice but to use the tunnel snakes no auto start mod since my main quest was broken without it.
How can I determine which mods are conflicting/redundant?

Sadly the bug occures even when my flashlight is off.
I also found the bug only happens at night if that changes anything.

By reading the descriptions, posts, and bug reports of literally every single mod before you install them.

Mods can break. BADLY. So in order to avoid such an occurrence, get in the habit of really researching your mods.

I don't know if it changes anything, but I found out the bug only happens at night (or any time the sky is dark).
have you taken the Night Person perk?

Thanks for all your help! It was the visible galaxy 2k mod, I removed it and instead installed enhanced night sky which fixed the problem since it has all kinds of fixes in it 😃
