morelights_dim

Description

morelights_dim 🔗

morelights has several very nice lighting nodes. This add-on mod allows to turn all light nodes from morelights off or to dim them.

About 🔗

morelights already provides sensible light level variations for the light nodes. But there is no way to get two lights of the same design with different light level. This mod adds a dim variant and an off variant to every design.

Light levels can be changed by right-clicking light nodes with the bulb item from morelights (default configuration).

Examples 🔗

morelights_dim gives you more flexibility to build different lighting sceneries.

You can emphasize a certain area by just dimming the other lights:

The dimmed and off nodes use darkened textures (in addition to emitting less light), so you can imitate broken neon tubes:

You can turn the lights off when going to bed:

If you turn the oil lamp from morelights_vintage off, the animated flame is hidden:

Do you recommend this mod?

  • great addition to morelights(great mod)

    I always thought morelights should have a option for dimmable lights (or turning them off) however i understood why it did not as the only way to do it using the engine would be using more node defs. as a seperate mod this allows users to make the choice if they wish to waste more node defs or not to have nice features
