LENT is a vanilla friendly normal map texture adjustment mod to increase the amount of shine certain objects such as metals and glass have that otherwise look dull as well as fixing instances of objects that look too bright and overblown.


Features:

Shinier surfaces for appropriate objects

Less cases of overblown objects

ZERO performance impact

General texture fixes


Compatibility:

Mod is compatible with everything under the sun, requires either Vanilla Plus Tonemapper or New Vegas Reloaded or else lighting will be wrong. And it's recommended to have the LATEST Meshes and Collision - Totally Enhanced Nifs (MAC-TEN) (And the TTW version if you have TTW) for best lighting results. If this mod is used alongside texture mods, make sure they overwrite this mod, however fix mods such as Mac10 and NVMIM should be overwritten by this mod.


Mods that shouldn't be used with LENT (These were redone):

Vanilla Hair - No Shine


Other Considerations:

Testing these changes is very time consuming due to the erratic nature of lighting and all the variables involved, as a result it's possible some edits went overboard. If you think it has then feel free to report it but please give the nif name, location and time of day so results can be reproduced.
