⚠️ Common Mistakes

Installing without checking requirements

👍 Pros

Huge community approval—7,732 endorsements and 2.5 million downloads show this mod is a hit.
Covers four different lighting fixtures, so you get a consistent medieval look across dungeons and cities.
Simple replacer mod—no gameplay changes, just better-looking candles and sconces.

👎 Cons

Last updated in 2019—might have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods that alter the same meshes.
No detailed description of the models, so you can't tell exactly what they look like before installing.
Purely cosmetic—if you want functional changes or new lighting effects, this isn't for you.
