If a cabin only has a few candles, yes it will be dark, don't blame us, blame Bethesda (haha) because we are trying to keep this lore friendly - and realistic as we can, even with huge engine limitations.

Sunlight will be realistic and not blue and places which are poorly lit WILL be dark.

This is a hardcore realism mod, that should be used by people who want their game to have an increased immersion level. This mod does not aim to make the game fantasy like, or add lights for the purpose of it looking beautiful on screenshots. We are also optimizing RLO so that it may even run FASTER than vanilla Skyrim in some instances. So this means there will be no performance decrease at all, in fact, some people might even get an FPS boost from using this mod due to the removal of bloom which takes up considerable processing power from older machines. This means the changes made to this mod only utilize the game engine and changes are only made via the Creation Kit. It makes the lighting more realistic without the use of screen shader injections or other post-processing. The aim of this mod is to make the lighting as realistic as possible within the confines of the game engine. The changes number in the thousands and cover many bases. It is a complete overhaul of the games lighting system and is one of the most comprehensive lighting mods available for Skyrim. Realistic Lighting Overhaul (RLO) is the fourth iteration of the popular lighting mod, Realistic Lighting without Post-Processing. Realistic Lighting Overhaul is a mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition, created by The Realistic Lighting Team.
