Strange behaviour of ground textures

[Gogan]

Got some issues with the ground textures these days.

 

Regarding where I stand or from what angle I look at them, the ground textures turn dark.

Don't think it's an issue with NMC / P o j o / etc., more something to do with settings. But I don't know where to look.

ENB? Did you disable AA/AF?

It's not the ENB's fault, Genius384. The engine has a limit of 5 lights casting shadows on the same area at the same time, and when there are more than that, it freaks out. Sadly happens in some areas because Electro-City adds a lot of lights.

AA / AF off, ENBoost without effect active.

 

So, Electro-City effs it up for me?

 

Anything you can do about it? Or is the only possible solution to remove the mod?

Makes sense.

 

I have never been a huge fan of Electrocity anyway.  I would say remove it, you're not missing much (gameplay wise)

Well, it's not Electro-City on its own, usually. It's in the combination with another mod. Lets say a vanilla location has two shadow casting lights within the given square. Then Electro-City adds three more, no problem. Then Mod ABC adds one more, now you have an issue.

So, Interior Lighting Overhaul has the same problems for interiors?

 

Sometimes ground textures indoors, like newspaper, turns dark. Don't have any screens sadly.

Any mod that add new light sources has a chance to cause that. Mods that add a lot of them obviousy have more chances to cause issues, especially in conflicting cells.
