Spectacular Night Eye SE

A small mod with seven different night vision effects. Compatible with Night Vision Overhaul and Predator Vision. The eponymous Offtherails port mod

spectacular night eyes

Have you ever thought that the default Night Eyes effect is a bit dull? Me too...especially after using this Oblivion mod for so long. So I thought I'd jump into CK and see what to do. It turns out there are many:

SNE is a range of compelling night vision options that can overhaul and improve your night vision. If you also have BigFuzzyBear's Night Eye Overhaul installed, you can find rings, scrolls, and night vision potions in the world. You don't have to rely on being a Khajiit or a vampire to truly see in the dark.

SNE is now (v4.1+) compatible with Gopher's Predator Vision. You can select any two of these effects and use them for the night vision/heat vision features added in this mod.

Think of this mod as a "reinvention" of regular night vision effects. This mod does not add any spells or abilities.

Seven different effects! Try them all and choose the ones you like, or swap them out for a completely new look.

Energy: A bright two-tone landscape of ever-changing colors.

Psycho: In addition to brightening the entire image, Psycho can also invert the colors so that red becomes green, blue becomes yellow, and so on.

Garland: The picture becomes brighter and the lower half of the screen is severely blurred.

Temeraire: lighter and simpler. A riot of brilliant colors

Cliff: Rough edge detection shader that slightly tints the brightest areas

Bliss: Negative image. Darkness becomes light, darkness becomes light.

Edges: I went with the default effect, less blue and more bloom.

All image manipulation is done in-game by the Creation engine itself. Not a single line of code was written to achieve these effects. There will be no impact on performance.

Install

Fully scripted NMM installation. Manual installation instructions are included in the archive. There are no quests, scripts or anything that could interfere with saved games.

Spectacular Night Eye

Have you ever thought the default Night-Eye effect was a bit dull? Me too... especially after using this Oblivion mod for so long. So I thought I'd jump into the CK and see what could be done. Turns out, quite a lot:

SNE is a selection of dramatic nighteye effects that overhaul and improve the night-eye effect. If you install BigFuzzyBear's Night Eye Overhaul as well, you'll be able to find rings, scrolls and potions of night-eye in the world. You won't have to rely on being either a Khajiit or a vampire to actually see in the dark.

SNE is now (v4.1+) compatible with Predator Vision by Gopher. You can pick any two of these effects, and use them for the night vision/thermal vision abilities added in that mod.

Think of this mod as a "retexture" of the regular night eye effect. This mod does not add any spells or powers.

Seven different effects! Try them all and choose your favourite, or swap them around for a whole new look.

Energy: A lurid, two-tone landscape of constantly shifting colours.

Psycho: As well as brightening the whole image, Psycho reverses the colours so red becomes green, blue becomes yellow and so on.

Garland: A brightened view, with severe blurring in the lower half of the screen.

Temeraire: More light, simple as. A gorgeous riot of colour

Precipice: A harsh edge-detection shader, with a slight tint to the brightest areas

Bliss: A negative image. Dark becomes light and light becomes dark.

Sideline: My take on the default effect, with less blue and more bloom.

All image manipulation is done in-game, by the Creation engine itself. Not a single line of code was written to achieve these effects; there is no performance impact whatsoever.

Installation

Fully scripted NMM install. Manual installation instructions included in the archive. No quests, scripts or anything that might interfere with saved games.
