Lighting & Weather
The notable changes introduced with this release are those associated with lighting and weather. Specifically, Luminosity was replaced with Ambiance to return Step to a more vanilla-compliant lighting overhaul that no longer breaks sneaking to the extent that was evident under Luminosity. This will be most evident in interiors but will also help to lesser effect in exteriors. These lighting overhauls are irrelevant to most exteriors. The result is a more vanilla look/feel with 'fixed' lighting, more evident (and accurate) shadows, and a more austere look/feel that is a better fit for Skyrim and looks great. Step's version includes some custom tweaks that slightly desaturate and warm Ambiance's default lighting.
Cathedral Weathers' foggy weathers were also customized to make fogs a bit more realistic and to bring them closer to the player while minimizing drawbacks of doing so under Skyrim's limited lighting flexibility. The opposite was done for rainy weathers where we thing fog was a bit overdone in some variants. A few other weathers were subtly tweaked. We think this improves weather variation and realism.
