It does affect falmer, all detection mods do. In the game data falmer are technically 80% blind, not 100% blind.
Falmer are also affected by my more recent "Realistic AI Detection" mod (shameless plug).

Does this affect the falmer or any other npcs that can't see? I mean, they're blind so light shouldn't change things for them

@corporal salty. then the enemy is thinking "TF is that distant clanking sound? imma check it out"

Enemies far, far away detect you through walls if you have heavy armor and low sneak skill, even if you are walking while crouched.

Great fix.

what's the armor in the video?

in the video that npc give up search quick

The sneaking missions werent really well made, to be honest.

This mod has worked as intended/advertised in most situations, but a few of the sneaking missions are straight up ruined by it. :(

That's cool and all, but seriously that video would make this mod showing a whole lot funnier.

I did not test it but I'm sure it's compatible with wearable lanterns and since the lanterns are light sources from the original game, they should affect your sneaking as well.

Sry for bad grammar

1. YOU HAVE TO PUT THE VIDEO CALLED SKYRIM:SNEAKING FOR THIS, 2.Is this compatible with wearable lanterns?

this isn't very good, i feel at times i've been detected when i shouldn't have. I can be at the side, not moving at all, completely in the dark, and they can still see me.

Just... perfect.

how does one completely uninstall this mod?

nice mod. well done vampaerr. thank you.

Where did you get that armor in the video?

i could be the stalker

Thanks for this! :D

i read this mod description in a whispered voice.

It uses the game lighting and sounds mechanincs for detection, so I believe anything that would affect those would also affect this mod's behaviour. Personally, I use RLO/RLFX for my realistic lighting mods and they work well along with this mod.

Does this work with any particular realistic lighting modifiers I wonder?

This would make my game worse. I have the first sneaking perk to 3/whatever the max is and somehow the enemies can hear and see me through stone walls.

Whats the mod with that bikini looking armour?

Sounds good, thanks. :)

no, the enemy doesnt die.. that is all ))

The locational damage sounds like I would prefer it of the two, does it completely crash the game or just glitch a little when it doesn't work?

there is a mod called locational damage that adds that feature.. it doesnt always work, but does work most of the time.. there is also another mod called sneak tools, that provides some interesting ideas to sneak play

Head shots? That's a whole new good idea, I figured that was only a Fallout thing. Thanks for the tip. :)

well, to fix that you need to wait for Bethesda to make a new Elder Scrolls game.
and shooting a guy on the face and see him speak normally is even more funny.. download a mod that makes shots in the face deadly.

Ah, yes, I shoot a guy in the face from my hiding spot, he looks around for a while, muses for a bit and concludes... "Must have been the wind." Sadly, it's more funny to me because I'm *not* joking!

Nice mod. but it's too hard for sneak :P

I feel like this mod has potential and I'd like to see it a little bit better, not just more difficult. Like maybe let us turn off those fire bowls in dungeons and towns? It's cool, the lighting concept, but right now it's just too difficult and I don't feel sneaky. I just feel like a big fat hamburger rolling around guards and getting caught..

It reminds me on the the Thief series. Great job, just what I needed. Thanks! :D

if your not gonna fix this mod, make mod that makes sneaking easier, it should fix this

Because of what the player below said I unsubscribed from your mod. FIX IT please.

i think i have roblem, i tested this mod, and it worked, but then i got bored with it and disabled it, since then i havent been able to sneak. im so pissed now, i get out of whiteruns gates and soon i have like... 50 red s in my compas...so now practicly, everthting wants me dead,

Idk, haven't tested it with Dragonborn DLC yet

Crasshnbrun@Have you tested the dragonborn dlc with sneak ?I can stand right in front of some one wile sneak and they dont even see me just like vanilla skyrim.I don't have any problems with dawngraud or any where in skryrm.But how ever in dragonbron dlc it dosnt seem to be working form.So if you wouldnt mind looking into this if you all ready havn't it would really help thanks.

I had to completely uninstall and reinstall Skyrim to get rid of the effects of this mod, and even then I wasn't 100% sure the stealth detection in the game was back to normal. (I ended up scrapping that save entirely and going back to a save from almost a month prior, long before I installed this mod.) My character was regularly detected at long range and through walls, even though he had 100 Sneak and every perk in the Sneak tree maxed out.

It's compatible with any DLC released and to be released unless they change the core values of sneaking which I doubt they will.

This isn't compatible with Dragonborn? Dammit! This is the only sneak mod I've found on steam and the nexus so far!

I have had no problems with this mod but, Author can you please make this dragonbron compatible ?

I don't know what's up with this mod, but ever since I used it and completely uninstalled it (because of the 100% chance of being detected in pretty much every situation possible even with 100 Stealth), the game still does not let me sneak past damn near anything, even at long range.

does it support the water arrow mod to stay in the dark?

I will try this out with my mage. Quiet Casting plus sneaking just feels like cheating atm. I tried out Duel which made my mage a 1-hit for everything, looked at Path of Shadows which seems to make it too hardcore for a mage character but seems awesome as a thief. Your mod seems to be what I'm looking for, for my purposes.

Here's a link to my mod in case you were curious...

Ah, okay, cool, thanks.

Also, to solve the Falmer issue, search the Object window for AbFalmer and you will find in there that the magnitude of their blindness is set to 80. Upping it to 100 might solve the issue with them.

If you change that I might be better off using your mod than my own because you've probably worked on it longer and understand the sneak values better than me. I just made my mod because I thought there was no good sneak mods at the time until I found yours.

I've changed several of those values, pretty sure the same ones you've found on your CK. I also gave a penalty to the use of torchs and light spells in your sneak values but I added a bonus to very dark areas aswell.
