have

Ever wondered why Khajiits or vampires can only see in the dark for 30 seconds at a time? Or why are dark-adapted eyes so noisy? How did the mages of Tamriel forget such a basic spell? Then this mod might be just what you're looking for!

Installation instructions:

Automatic installation (recommended):

Download and install using Mod Manager.

Manual installation:

Copy the contents of the "Required Files" folder to the "Skyrim\Data" folder and enable "Night Eye Overhaul.esm" and "Night Eye Overhaul.esp" in the Skyrim launcher or your preferred mod manager.

All option plugins are contained in the "Optional Files" folder. To install add-ons, copy the required add-ons from "Optional Files" to "Skyrim\Data" and enable it via the Skyrim launcher or your preferred mod manager.

To use any of the optional Night Eye effects, copy the corresponding plugin from the "Optional Files\Night Eye Effects" folder to "Skyrim\Data". Don't use more than one of these files at once!

compatibility:

This mod will conflict with other mods that change Khajiit/Vampire Night Vision abilities, Vampire invisibility, or one of the upgrade lists in Edit My Mod Editor. My mods are 100% compatible with all other mods, with those notable exceptions.

For compatibility with mods that edit the same level list, there is no problem making bashed patches using Wrye Bash. Hypothetically ReProccer should work as well, but it hasn't been tested yet.

Release Notes:

Version 1.3.1 is released as-is, with no gameplay changes from the previous version. I uploaded it because why not? The only difference is that the dirty edits were removed when I ported the mod to Skyrim SE. If dirty edits didn't cause problems before, there's no real need to upgrade from v1.3.

As much as I'd love to add a few things, like MCM support, I simply don't have the time to do so.
