Smoking Torches and Candles (by mindflux)

Hmm... I didn't even read the compatibility thing. That's disappointing. Those old resin and tar torches would smoke pretty good. No one would ever take one of those things indoors and they'd only last 30-40 minutes at most. If they had some proper wicks and kerosene then it wouldn't smoke that much.

So there are two types of candles; tallow (animal fat) and bees wax. The tallow candles were less expensive and used by the more common folk, smoked, and often came with a bad odor. The bees wax were more expensive, used mainly but churches and nobility, but came with no odor and very little smoke.

The problem with the candles isn't so much the appearance of smoke, but the way the candles smoke. It would be a smoke wisp that came off the tip of the flame. You'd think they would have used all that Horker fat to make some oil for lamps. Those date back to the Stone Age. Hell, it would probably be one of the biggest exports of Skyrim to the rest of Tamriel.
