Welcome to the Light-Placer wiki!

Light Placer is a framework for attaching lights to objects and actors, via configurable .JSON files.

Unlike ENB or Community Shader particle lights, Light Placer adds real light bulbs - they can flicker, affect detection, change color based on time of day (external emittance) and so on, just like regular Skyrim light sources. This does mean they are subject to Skyrim's light limit, so Light Limit Fix is a requirement.

The following types are supported:

• Static objects - Statics, Movable Statics, Furniture, Doors, Containers, Activators, Flora
• Dynamic objects - Misc Objects, Soul Gems, Books, Potions, Ingredients
• Worn items - Armor, Weapons
• Special FX - Effect Shaders, Art Objects (spell hit effects, hit shaders, enchantments, casting art)
