🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's not a reshade, you can combine it with your favorite ENB or ReShade preset for extra visual flair.
If nights feel too dark, consider using in-game brightness settings or carrying a torch/lantern to compensate.
Make sure to download the version specifically for the SotE DLC – the original mod may not work with the expansion.
