what light mod is best?

[BlackViper]

for warmer fires, darker nights. and just plain better and more realistic light in the game. also would want some tips on other graphical changing mods that is working,

Vivid weathers has a built in lighting system that can be adjusted for interiors and exteriors. It will also allow you to adjust things like bloom and saturation, as well as sun and moon brightness. You can also do all this in game from a handy menue.

There is so many of them.. wich one do you use for the VR vertion of the game

[Zekail]

I was using vivid weathers, darker nights and realistic lighting overhaul, ive since just stepped it down to only vivid weathers since it does the same thing as darker nights if you want it to. And now that ive worked out a few issues im going to try and put realistic lighting overhaul back in as well cause that one does some really cool things. And this is all VR, I currently have 107 active plugins on my game.

cant seem to get realistic lightning to work https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/844
downloaded it, but the nights are still as bright as vanilla

that one doesnt adjust the lighting levels, it does lots of little things like makes light sources cast shadows adjust godrays, adds in smoke and ember effects. changes the way light sources cast shadows and so on

oh yea i just noticed when i went inside. it was my dream from the normal pc vertion to get this "lightning" to work so it would look cool inside. i will download the weather mod aswell i read it changes some lightnings so i hope it makes the nights darker. =) thanks again

for some reason i can download everything except vivid weathers. it just says "NMM is not set up to work with skyrim if skyrim is installed, rescan for installed games from the change game toolbar item."

[BlackViper]

Is it this one you are using ? https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/2187

[Zekail]

thats odd, it sounds like you changed the base directory and told NMM that its somewhere else

[BlackViper]

hmm the other mods work perfectly. i used this guide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iw_lmNawuh0&t=199s so far i got 6 mods. and NMM wanted to take care of them all except the weather one lol. or do i need to do some manual downloads and ♥♥♥♥ first maybe i dono..

[Zekail]

lol i love that guy i followed his help as well. but no the vivid weathers mod should work just fine, i downlaoded and installed it via NMM

Can anyone confirm a lighting mod that works? I heard RLO doesn't work.

i only tried a little bit so far, im just getting started, added dozens of mods and working out the kinks, but ELFX seems to work so far and looks pretty nice.
