syco87 Posted October 26, 2021 Author Posted October 26, 2021 to clarify the shadows i want to disable are the ones you see in this screenshot, i just want to get rid of them because i don't like the way they look and also i want to start making videos and the shadows are covering up the goods a bit
coolfreaky Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 you can add this fonction and see if it helps . did you try this mod : Sexlab LightMeUp - Downloads - SexLab Framework SE - LoversLab you can adjust the light in MCM settings .
anjenthedog Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 or possibly this mod might help too Interior/Exterior Brightness
syco87 Posted October 28, 2021 Author Posted October 28, 2021 After a little more research i managed to get rid of them, all i had to do was download BethINI off of nexus and used that to disable ambient occlusion and the shadows are gone now
