Skyrim will look better than ever with the Skyrim – Enhanced Lights and FX Mod

The Skyrim – Enhanced Lights and FX Mod is a free add-on for Skyrim that brings a range of graphical enhancements to the game.

New lights and effects

The aim of the Skyrim – Enhanced Lights and FX Mod is to bring a more realistic and dramatic feel to the Skyrim universe by altering the lights and effects. Light sources that previously failed to emit light will now glow realistically. On top of this, the mod includes a range of effects enhancements.

A new level of realism

Players will recognize a wide variety of graphical alterations when they install the mod. Candles emit smoke realistically, bringing the new atmosphere to interiors. Subtle details including water reflections and the translucency of market stands have been revised. The effects of sunlight and weather on exteriors have been strengthened. All of this contributes to a whole new atmosphere for the game.

Darker and moodier

In some ways the mod will make the game more challenging. Fog is now thicker and certain interiors now darker, making it harder to navigate and explore the settings. Beyond these details, however, the overall effect of the mod is cosmetic, improving the visual style of the game without altering the gameplay too drastically. This sets it apart from more extreme mods like Skyrim Wormtooth Mod and Super Skyrim Bros which introduce major new gameplay aspects.

Skyrim will feel new again

The main audience of the Skyrim – Enhanced Lights and FX Mod will be players who enjoy Skyrim but feel that the graphical quality has become dated since its initial release and would like to see it receive an update. This free mod certainly offers that, bringing in a raft of graphical enhancements that affect a wide number of different areas and elements of the game, all coming together to create a new, more realistic atmosphere.
