Sexlab LightMeUp

But I'm not really sure what the definition of a sexlab thread is in this case, so I'm hoping you can fill me in on that before I jump to conclusions. I have a lot of mods, so it's impossible for me to determine what the problem is without actually disabling them all one by one(or what seems like a possible conflict). Here is my load order so you can see if there is something strange:

When sexlab starts a "scene" it sends a mod event "HookAnimationStart" which is what lightmeup listens for. Subsequently it drops the lights around the scene centre which it reads from the sexlab threadID that was sent with the event. This, TDFDancers (if installed) and using the "Test Lights" keymap set in the LightMeUp MCM (maybe you set the keymap and hit it by mistake?) are the only ways to trigger the lights.

 

I've no idea which of your mods could be initiating a scene with the mara statue but it's not this one! A good place to start would be enabling debug logging and trace. Then look for sexlab trace entries in your papyrus.log. You might be lucky and find the culprit.

 

Another way to avoid this would be to wait until you've left the abandoned prison before enabling SexLab in the MCM.

I didn't set any keys but some testing revealed that it can only happen with ELFXenhancer and Sexy Starting Options enabled (and I don't even have to activate the statue). So I'm just going to take that as a situational conflict and keep playing. It's a pretty niche mod so maybe that's why no one reported it.

Hi, thanks for the great mod. With the dark ENB, i can  admire the animations. but I have a little problem: during animation objects (like AnimObjects) and sometimes the actors themselves are incorrectly illuminated at a certain angle (become dark), if i rotate the camera,  lighting becomes normal . and the objects of animation in all stages except the last are also dark from all angles only at the last stage they are illuminated normally just like the actors. The video shows more clearly:

 

 

ENB is not to blame here, I tried and without it the situation is the same. I tried to change the loading order, too, did not help.

But just in case:

That is one odd sentence! Eat some cheese and drink some wine, then go out to your garden and enjoy the sun, you'll be OK

This is either down to your load order or more likely lighting limitations of the game.

 

Edit: wait! What is the mod you are using to switch scenes in game in your video? if that mod isn't triggering a new sexlab thread each time then no wonder the lighting isn't updating.... Geez sometimes I wonder why I bother with support...

SexLab Tools  and  SexLab Defeat, but their buttons for calling the scene menu are different, I use Tools to select tags, and for scenes and stages I use Defeat.

Here's how it looks on characters and without running Sexlab scenes(Test button):

I tried to move the mod up as much as possible, but it didn't help.

[WhatRules]

The light triggered for me in broad daylight with a setting of 50. How can that happen? I'm gonna try 20 because the mod seems over sensitive. Would also be nice if we could save our settings. I don't see what the profile setting is about right now.

Yup getlightlevel() can be a bit hit and miss, hence why there's a manual option. The profiles are for storing 5 diferent lighting setups that you can switch between and are kept in a json file. I might add a way to save the other settings to this at some point.

[CheddarTrauma]

Suggestion: MCM option to only apply lights to scenes involving the player.

[chevalierx]

light too strong even i use mcm to down light ?? any fix

Hello

 

I have a problem with this mod ... when the light is there I have a big point of exclamation in a large red square ... in the creation kit on the tlight.nif I also have the point of exclamation mark in the red square I also installed powerofthree's Papyrus Extender but it doesn't change anything

 

can you help me ?

 

thank you

[RoninDog]

Maybe I didn't understand it correctly but where it says "minimum lighting for auto-lights" in the MCM, shouldn't that be the maximum lighting allowed? It would make sense that it triggers auto-lighting only below the set value, because you only need it in dark areas. But feel free to explain how it actually works.

[bastardopfromhell]

The problem with this mod is, that it adds so much light it turns into darkness. Wait-what?! Yeah, you see skyrim has a limit of 4 lights maximum on-screen, and this mod alone adds 5 - not counting other lights on scene. As a result SL Lightmeup guarantees that some lights will not work, or worse you get the dreaded flicker, where lights randomly turn on and off depending on your viewing angle and camera position.

 

Bottom line: Don't use this mod - it only makes the situation worse.

If you're getting flicker from too many lights, you can reduce the radius & brightness of some of the lights to zero and enable the "PC Scenes only" feature.

 

It works pretty well just using the front light.

That never happened to me. The only issue I have is that the auto-lighting triggers when it's not needed, so I just set manual control instead.

I came here to leave a glowing review of this mod, but I can find no way to do that. So here is my review:

 

THIS MOD IS FUCKIN' AWESOME!

IT DOES EXACTLY WHAT IT SAYS ON THE TIN!

WORKS PERFECTLY WITH AT LEAST 3 VERSIONS OF SLF!

I WOULD 'ENDORSE' IT BUT THIS AIN'T THE FLIPPIN' NEXUS

THANK YOU, PFIFFLE PFIPPLE PFAHRTER PFINGER PFATBABY 'JUST A PORTER'

As a way of getting around this issue, I made a quick patch that adds ENB lights to the lights from this mod. ENB lights don't suffer the same issues that the regular Skyrim lights do with flickering and whatnot. You need ENB installed obviously and complex particle lights need to be enabled. You should also go into the MCM for this mod and turn the brightness to zero for all the lights, so that the ENB lights are doing all the work.

Thank you for this! I am having the flickering issue with another light mod, Quick Light SE (using Bright-Wide-No Effect settings). Is there a way to convert that mod's effect to ENB Lights to stop the flickering? I don't see a "zero brightness" setting in that mod's MCM.

 

TL; DR: I need a bright ambient light with no visible source shining back into my eyes and blinding me, that doesn't cause environmental flickering. Any idea how I can do that?

There is a patch for Quick Light on the ENB Light mod page (in optional files). I don't think there's any way to turn the regular light off using the MCM though. You could maybe edit the mesh files and delete the regular light from them but leave the ENB light. I haven't tried that myself but it should work. I also use ELFX Shadows which helps a lot with the flickering issue, so I don't see much flickering even with quick light on.

[Vyxenne]

Thank you for the heads up on ENB Light's Quick Light patch!

First question is, the mesh files from which mod? I'm assuming Quick Light, but for all I know you mean the ENB Light QL Patch. I don't know how to tell the "regular light" from the "ENB Light" even if I knew which mod's mesh you are talking about editing. I have no fear of using NifSkope, I do it all the time to re-slot armor or remove a shape from a multi-shape nif, or add an HH_OFFSET... but without knowing what I'm looking for it would be pointless to bumble around removing partitions from nifs. Thanks.

Honestly I'm not an expert on this stuff, I just mess around and find what works by trial and error. The meshes you would edit would be whichever ones are highest priority in your load order, so probably the ones from the ENB Light - Quick Light patch if you have that installed. There is a node called "AttachLight" which I believe is the one that you'd delete if you want to remove the standard Skyrim light. Again I haven't tried this myself so IDK if it would work, but that's what I'd do.

[kamoewarrior]

This perfect. I've spent too much time looking for lighting mods and ENBs that don't make the sex difficult to see

[Guest]

hello, during the scenes the lighting works, but the genitals are without lighting, dark, I edited the back and front light level, and floor, but the lighting of the genitals did not change.

[OrcishOatmeal]

Is there anybody else having issues with the MCM menu? I cant unbind the keys
