EVEN BETTER IN-GAME LIGHTING MOD

Finally, I've made the in-game lighting exactly as bright and juicy as my cas lighting 🫠.

The screenshots were taken in the game, no reshade or edit was used on it.

And I also added a screenshots of the comparison with other lighting mods so that you can choose what you like more. I advise you to open the pictures in a separate tab to better see the differences.

📑 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

📑 FILE TYPES (install only one!)

It affects the brightness without lamps. I'm using the "bright" version.

Hi, if I chose the dark version I hear it gets rid of the hues but I wanted to make sure it wont make my game dark .. Im going to be using the softblind mod by softerhaze and I figured get the dark for that reason but what would you suggest I download to keep the brightness right in the game?

NATASHA R.

✅ The mod is fully compatible with the new update 1.116.223.1030!

northern siberia winds

Is it still compatible with the last update?

I downloaded it and followed the instructions but it's not showing up in my game?

Lauryn Collins

can you make a super dark version like the one in the old mod?

Teapressed

is this only for pictures? or does it change the lighting for gameplay, and building??

I'm a SimLit writer and had the no-glo/blue light mod installed. I would have to edit most of my screenshots to make them bright enough to be seen. I stumbled onto your mod and realized I hadn't updated the no-glo mod in awhile. I was skeptical about doing something different. Then thought "maybe I should try out a different lighting mod" just to see what it looks like. I DL'ed the average one and installed it then went to bed and forgot that I installed it. So I was taking screenshots for my latest chapter. Then I was in my photo editor to edit said screenshots and was confused. I started doing my usual work only to realize it wasn't necessary. I was sooo confused. I knew the lighting in the restaurant my sims were in wasn't great, but I didn't need to edit. In fact, all of my screenshots needed little to no editing (in as far brightness or saturation was concerned). Like, I could see the scenes so well; the screenshots looked lovely. Was I visited by a photo editing fairy? I'm embarrassed by how long I sat staring at the screen flabbergasted. But eventually, it hit me like a ton of bricks: I installed that lighting mod! It did all this???? I do have reshade, but I use it for certain shots in stories as I don't like playing with it on. So, having a good lighting mod like yours is saving me soooo muuuuch tiiimmme!!! Anyway, all that to say thank you so much. Even Better lighting mod is a lifesaver!

yes

I tried to download this mod and when i try to open my sims games it says the mod is broken or corrupted

Bear

Hi, does this mod conflict with the "into the light" and "out of the dark" lighting mods by lotharihoe?

Xxsymphoniousxx

There has never been a version with such a name for this mod. However, the first version does have it. I think you might have just gotten confused. You can download the first version here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/better-in-game-1-79174144 .

You see I live the darker saturation more

can I still get vs 1.0 I liked it so much

It works beautifully. Thank you for everything, including the prompt reply.

Hi! Place both mods in the root mods folder and rename MizoreYukii's No Blur In Distance to "!!!!!!!!!!!MizoreYukii_NoBlurInDistance". And thank you for your kind words!

northern siberia winds

Firstly, thank you for your amazing creations for the TS4 community. I recently installed the 'Even Better In-Game Lighting Mod v1.1 Average' and found that it conflicts with MizoreYukii's No Blur In Distance mod. Are there any plans to make these two mods compatible?

myopic

I love it

K

Please keep this

Hello! I play in this city and didn't notice any problems. However, if suddenly the lighting is really different, it means that EA did it on purpose. My mod does not control the lighting in individual cities.

northern siberia winds

✅ The mod is fully compatible with the new update 1.111.102.1030.

northern siberia winds

Hello this is a lovely mod, but for some reason the city area next to the bridge in San Sequoia doesn't have the same lighting effect as the rest of the lots across all of the other worlds. Is this supposed to be this way? Its frustrating that this is the only location where the lighting hasn't been updated and my sim is living there lol.

TJay 🛋️

✅ The mod is fully compatible with the new update and the Life & Death Expansion Pack.

northern siberia winds

Hi! Try the other two versions and choose the one that suits you best.

northern siberia winds

Hi, I have the Even Better In-Game Lighting Mod v1.1 Bright but my sim looks very bright whitish indoors, should I take the average?

Yene Santana

Oh I totally understand now! I thank you so much even making this mod! I can wait for EA to fix it, you do so much for my game, I'm just thankful it works again!! I can't thank you enough! \(^○^)人(^○^)/

Sleepy Kitsune

You're welcome! I'm glad it worked for you. My file replaces the global lighting, not the lighting of individual cities, so... I can't fix it, unfortunately. We can only wait for EA to fix it.

northern siberia winds

Oh my god that worked! Thank you so much!! I have to move from Sulani to another city! Oooh, thank you!! I'm so sorry about that!

Sleepy Kitsune

Try another city? Maybe EA broke something in the lighting of this city again.

northern siberia winds

Okie! I took everything out of my mods folder except the Gentle CAS and the Better In Game Lighting with same results T-T I thank you for trying to help me, I really loved this mod! It worked perfectly on my old PC, I just can't get it to work on here now. https://imgur.com/a/LLScCLK

Sleepy Kitsune

Check if there is any other lighting mod in your folder. Including my BETTER IN-GAME LIGHTING MOD.

northern siberia winds

Heyo! It is! It's summer and a little after 1 and I still have the same results :c https://imgur.com/a/7BsyOMR

Sleepy Kitsune

Hi. The lighting in the game is dynamic and depends on the time and weather. The brightest option will be at 12 o'clock in the afternoon in clear weather.

northern siberia winds

Hiiii! I have a problem with this mod. I had recently redownloaded this mod and my game is brighter, but all my sims are extremely dark. My game is updated to the latest patch. I only have this game lighting and the gentle CAS lighting. I do not use any other lighting mods. My game graphics are at the highest settings. I have the Even Better Lighting and Gentle CAS lighting directly into my mods folder and still my sims are extremely dark. In CAS, they look great! In game, they look very matte and dull. https://imgur.com/a/DRKGBxk

Sleepy Kitsune

The mod is fully compatible with the latest update. If it doesn't work for you, it means that you have a conflicting mod in your folder or have you installed it incorrectly. I also advise you to try redownload the file, as sometimes files break when downloading or using the hard drive. {northern siberia winds telled this in one of comments}

Katarzyna

You are welcome! I'm always happy to help if I can.

northern siberia winds

ohh okay sorry!! thank you so much i appreciate it🤍

Leah

I watched your video and it looks like everything is working fine. When you go to the menu, it's just a standard game overlay that darkens the screen anyway (even when the mod is not installed).

northern siberia winds

i will! thank you so much for helping!

Leah

I would like to help you, but I can't even imagine what it might look like. I advise you to fill out this form (https://forms.gle/kmZTKc39PuQvuH7r8) and add a video to it.

northern siberia winds

oh okay, thats so weird then because it shows when i open the save menu and then goes away, sorry for bothering you!

Leah

Hello there. What you are describing simply cannot exist. Or you're describing it incorrectly. This mod is a default replacement for the game code. It can either work or not work at all (when conflicting mods are present). It can't turn off and on when it wants to. These are static settings.

northern siberia winds

This mod still isn't working for me idk whats going on. i removed every other mod and all of my cc so this is the only thing installed but it won't work. It fades away when i enter the game if that makes any sense. i can see it for a second but then it fades back to normal lighting.

Leah

22/10/24 The mod works with the latest patch (1.110.265.1030).

northern siberia winds

Yes, it replaces the "BETTER IN-GAME LIGHTING MOD". You can install only one of the versions. And thank you! 💙

northern siberia winds

Thank you so much for making the sims better. Just to confirm, this replaces the better in game lighting? Or, do we use the better and even better with the gentle cas lighting?

Tasha S

Hi! No.

northern siberia winds

do you need to enable script mods for it to work

Sim Lee

The mod is fully compatible with the latest update. If it doesn't work for you, it means that you have a conflicting mod in your folder or have you installed it incorrectly. I also advise you to try redownload the file, as sometimes files break when downloading or using the hard drive.

northern siberia winds

thank you for this beautiful update, may I ask where the colorful heart hair clips in the preview photo from? thank you so much again.

Tara Pak

hi there! i'd really love to use this mod, but may i ask if this will be available on curseforge? cos thats where i download most of my mods, lol

ziggystardustlover

Hi! Yes.

northern siberia winds

Hi! Does this work with the September 18'th/19'th 2024 update?

Eve Simpson

Hi! No, it does not load the computer and does not affect the speed of the game in any way.

northern siberia winds

I have a lower-end computer, will this mod make my game really slow?

zoomermoon

Amazing! Thank you so much! xx

oiseaudelune

In fact, both mods are overriding/replacing the game's default "in-door lighting"... So, not compatible with each other. The reason you're not having problems despite using both mods is that this mod is added to the activation queue before the other mod (thanks to the alphabetical priority of the "!" (exclamation mark) at the beginning of its name), therefore it is processing 1st, and leaving/exluding the other conflicting mod out of scope from game's preliminary preparation (pre-rendering) process for packs/contents/etc.

TA2DF

Omgggg Thank you so muchhh

Omaima Yousif

Hi! The pictures show a comparison of these mods.

northern siberia winds

Hi! I want to download this mod, i've been using noblu and noglo until now and i was wondering if this mod does the same thing as those two? Remove the blue hue and prevents sims from glowing?

sugjica

So after downloading it add its to your sims 4 mods folder

Chloe Guidry

hi, after downloading this does it automatically show up in game or do you have to do something to make it show?

Nyla Wyla

Hi! No.

northern siberia winds

Hi! No.

northern siberia winds

does this conflict with the Sunblind Mod by Softerhaze?

Seokjinnie Kim

Очень красиво теперь симы выглядят, спасибо💜💜💜💜

Вероника Сивьюк

thank you!

Leanne B.

That’s so exciting!!! I can’t wait!!

Alana Steele

Do you mean my 2d eyelashes? The new section is designed for 3d eyelashes and I actually don't think it's a good idea to move 2d eyelashes there. But I will definitely put my 3d eyelashes, which I am working on, in a new category.

northern siberia winds

Only one of them as they will conflict, you can only have one lighting mod in-game that affects the characters. Not including shaders

Derin

I've used it with this mod and had no issues.

deri ⭐️

Hi! Will this conflict with lotharihoe's out of the dark mod which removes the blue hue in an environment?

Leanne B.

Can this mod be used with the previous lighting mod you created or just one of them?

RIAG

The creator made them awhile ago but they are still some of my favorites

Alana Steele

Hi! I can see them now! Thank you!!

Aliera

ty!!

GhoulBaby

Aliera, what is not open? The files are attached to the post.

northern siberia winds

Well, it's the end of the day 7th in Portugal. It's still not open. Did something happen to Northern Siberia Winds?

Aliera

I didnt know there were eyelashes!

Tol

I love your mods! The skin overlays are superb for sure. I hope to have a lash update to fit the new makeup category soon, because your lashes are the best.

Alana Steele

Hello! My game is updated yeah, but the issue is still happening even with my mods folder empty. I also took out Sunblind by Softerhaze. thank you for your reply anyway <3

Mel

can we use both even better and better at the same time

MB

Thank you so much for making this mod, DL & installing as I type x

Inamac Gaming

Thank you for making this lighting mod and so easy to use. ❤

Shelly

Hello, yes! This is indicated in the post.

northern siberia winds

Hi! Have you updated the game? If so, then perhaps there is another lighting mod in your folder that does not allow this to work.

northern siberia winds

Hi! I love this but I've got an issue that's not strictly related to this but thought you might know what it could be? My sims look pretty dark even when they are out in the sunlight and even with the bright version of this mod, it doesn't change at all. Don't think it's a mod issue since even without any mods they still look dark. Do you know what could be causing this or how to fix it? Thank you either way!! <3

I think you just need to wait? Everyone has different time zones. For example, I only have 7 a.m. lol.

Sara Noer

will it be available to download for everyone on the 6 of august, because it is currently the 5 but it isn't unlocked yet?

Sage Q

No, this mod didn't break.

Did this break with the recent update... Should I wait to install

Hi! Make sure that you have deleted the old version (you need to delete, not "replace" the files). And then, if the problem persists, I advise you to reset the lamp settings on the lot to default and reset the lighting settings that you like. This should help. If suddenly the problem persists, then write to me in private messages and I will analyze your case in more detail!

northern siberia winds

Hi, I really love this mod, but I downloaded the updated version of dark indoor, don’t know why there is still an issue with multicolored lamps. Is there a way to fix it permanently? This is the best version of lighting for TS4 I have seen.

Dreamview

This is literally perfection

manuelisthot

my favorite creator, period.

Chic Sims

Omg! Can't wait to use this in my game

Bianca

I literally have this and sunblind in my game, no reshade or gshade and my game looks so good! With your mod it looks like have a preset installed. Thank you so much! You're appreciated 🤎

Ke Shanell

Hi! My mod in its previous version already got rid of the blue hue and glow, but it just works completely differently than the luumia mod (my mod completely changes the way lighting works). You can compare the screenshots that I gave as an example they show exactly how the lighting differs.

northern siberia winds

I love luumia's no glo and no blu. Now does your mod get rid of blue casting like Luumia? Or does it just brighten and contrast? I read your entire listing and this is my question.

SiimplyJessica

Thank you for your kind words! 🩷 New skins will be in the next post (finally, ha-ha)!

northern siberia winds

Sooo much better in game 😍 im waiting for your child skins. Your skins are the only i use ❤️❤️

Love love love your stuff! Thank you so much! 😊

peachmiilk

Thank you! I tried very hard to make it even better, ha-ha!🩷

northern siberia winds

The Better In-Game Lighting mod (all versions) is less colorful and contrasting, and the lighting on the sims was flatter, than in the new version (Even Better In-Game Lighting mod).

northern siberia winds

All versions of +- will differ exactly as shown in the screenshots. The old version is less colorful and contrasting, and the lighting on the sims was flatter. The new version fixes all these flaws.

northern siberia winds

Thank you! I tried very hard! 🥰

northern siberia winds

Omg! It's so sweet, thank you! 🩷

northern siberia winds

We so love this!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

RobertAtNyte

Out of mild curiosity, is this supposed to be a replacement for Better in Game Lighting? If so. are they levels the same; if not, how do they compare?

Jessica Mezo

Please send me a screenshot in private messages so that I can understand exactly what is happening.

northern siberia winds

yes! ive also restarted my game still having the same issue. ive done some more testing and it seems to only be happening with the dark indoor mod

Fee Fee

Hi ! I've always used the Better in game lighting 1.1 Dark base Lightroom. There was a lot of choice in that version. What's the difference with this one?

Little L

Thank you! I’m excited to put it in my game later, your CAS lighting is immaculate! ❤️
