The module is currently about half effective, but it still has functions, but the shadows are not as detailed as before.

Sometimes it becomes brighter, you can restore the MOD effect by adjusting the shadow quality

This mod doesn't seem to include the recent fixes that made coop players lit properly by lighting in the hangar. They're still fullbright at all times.

Even the minimal fog version has atrocious performance. It literally halved my framerate in the hangar, and I already have my shadows set to Medium. I went from 110fps in the hangar to 45fps with the minimal fog one

minimal fog certianly feels like heavy fog weather warning....please make a no fog version. Fog is the worst thing to happen to video games. noithing like spray painting white over all the artists efforts.

Overhauled everything and updated again. A much improved version now with better performance.

If possible could you make a no fog version

Thx!

The mod editor is bugged after the latest update that makes it impossible to edit maps, so this means I am unable to update the mod to include the consoles that were removed after the latest DLC. Once/if the editor gets fixed, I'll update the mod immediately :)
NCTribit 12 Nov, 2021 @ 2:23pm 
@Hamzi, can you fix bug? This mod great!
NCTribit 11 Nov, 2021 @ 10:06am 
Bugs... Battlemech Hangar console is absent

Looks great in the hangar, but my fps drops to 39-ish. Gonna have to pass on it.

This is very nice lighting - but for me I took almost a 15 FPS reduction in the hanger. Sorry, not for me:steamsad:

I noticed on some missions when I zoom in or do 3rd person view the game becomes dark again. Any way to fix this? It seems to be random because I've seen it on all of the different map types.

Awesome!:luv:

Good stuff my dude

Thank you!!!

Amazing mod!
Dommel 8 Jun, 2021 @ 7:01am 
daimn! this was so needed!
Raikoh 7 Jun, 2021 @ 4:51am 
I think this makes it a bit too dark in the map room area, but overall it's still a HUGE improvement. THIS is why I'm a PC gamer. Thank you!\
SankaraSamsara  [author] 6 Jun, 2021 @ 4:06pm 
@almightyfargoth: Yes, I will auto-update these mods. If people want the older versions, then they'll be available on Nexusmods.
almightyfargoth 6 Jun, 2021 @ 3:32pm 
@SankaraSamsara Will these mods just auto-update with the revised brightness when you figure it out?
Omega24 6 Jun, 2021 @ 3:16pm 
much love
BlackViper 6 Jun, 2021 @ 1:25pm 
if you make it possible for lighting like this to exsist even out on the battles.. i will forever remember you. this mod is great. "got the medium fog version"
SankaraSamsara  [author] 6 Jun, 2021 @ 10:05am 
Thanks @Corwyn, it's a problem I am working on that I just discovered today. It's because static pointlights are kind of 'disabled' when baking the lighting so now I am changing them to movable. Hopefully it won't cost performance too much
Tivadar 6 Jun, 2021 @ 8:41am 
This looks good, though comparing it to the original build before the current release of this may. This mod is waaaay darker than the original lighting. You may need to do some tweaking still to make it a wee bit brighter. Because this mod compared to the original? Its far far darker. Good work either way. Hope to see some lighting fixes with this.

Fantastic work! The "New" Leopard interior came as a huge shock to me. Extremely happy to have the original lighting back on PC with this mod.
Reksoul 6 Jun, 2021 @ 6:30am 
Great work, thank you.
Splunkjamma 6 Jun, 2021 @ 3:06am 
Awesome work dude!

Gotta Have it award!
almightyfargoth 5 Jun, 2021 @ 8:05pm 
Wow the difference that this makes is huge, very well done man! I knew there was something off as soon as I saw Ryana and the ops area. It seemed really off from how it should be and I was like...what the hell is this.
🦅 Helldivin' Henry 5 Jun, 2021 @ 7:32pm 
The change came as a shock to me after the update. Thank you so much for bringing it back closer to the way it was. Much appreciated!

I didn't even know this was a thing. I was confused when I first saw the hangar, like this is some low grade shit, but it makes sense now. Why'd they have to cripple PC version? Couldn't they just shove the downgrade into the console version only?
Cosmic Cat 5 Jun, 2021 @ 7:11pm 
Thank you.
Wolfblade 5 Jun, 2021 @ 6:39pm 
Oh you beautiful soul, thank you so much for making this. As soon as I saw that lighting I was hoping someone would make this.
