This mod makes neighborhood terrain day lighting correspond to the object lighting – makes it brighter and way less yellow.
There are 2 main versions of this mod that vary slightly in appearance:
Use only one version at a time.
Conflicts
This mod does not conflict with lighting mods (like Gunmod's Radiance Light System 2.4 or RLS 2.5 by Dreadpirate) that do not change the neighborhood terrain day lightmap texture. I haven't seen a mod that changes it though.

There are 2 main versions of this mod that vary slightly in appearance:
- soft – based on the original lot day lighting: a subtle yellow tint, lighter shadows;
- strong – based on the original neighborhood day lighting of objects: no yellow tint, deeper shadows.
Use only one version at a time.
Update (7 Nov 2022): Fixed the light direction in the lighting remedy versions. It was the exact opposite of what it was supposed to. Please redownload.
