Candlelight Spell VR Fix

Fixed candlelight spell in VR.

About this mod:

The candlelight spell is almost unusable in VR because the light floats too close to your face. It's dazzling and almost blocks the view. Unfortunately, the available first-person candela fix does not resolve this issue in the VR version of the game.

So I created this mod to change the position of the light source by moving it up and down. Therefore, it floats above your head rather than in front of your face, blocking the view. I also reduced the glow (no glow) by 60%. In the first image you can see the vanilla spelling and in the second image you can see the corrected spelling. Also, I made a "No Glow" version for those (who only use one).

This mod also works with SE, but its main purpose is to make the spell usable in VR.

Install:

Just download and add to your Mod Manager or Manager's Downloads folder. Then install it like any other mod and overwrite when prompted. This is just a grid, no plugins.

custom made:

If you want to change the intensity of the glow, you can do so by opening the mod's lightpellactorfx.nif file using Nif Scope and selecting

77 BSEffectShaderProperty and change the value of the emission multiple, as shown in the image below. Then save the file. To help you find

Your favorites, here are some reference values.

Vanilla = 1.000000

Lite = 0.400000

No glow version = 0.000000

So grateful to Savaas, author of the original The First Person Candlelight Fix and its open perm. I wouldn't have been able to solve the problem without his great work. Please visit his page and show the author some love :)

Shout out to Wolfman5750 for pointing me in the right direction ;)

Alternatively i made a "No Glow" version for those who perfer (use only one).

This mod will also work with SE but its main purpose is to make this spell usable in VR.
