I was wondering if someone could make a mod (or just briefly explain how) that makes the lamp item throw its light farther and be brighter. Or maybe a Light spell could be made. It would be like physical shield, with a brighter lamp effect instead of the blue glow, and no shielding effect.
Thanks

I've been testing CLightDef, and the "ratio" InnerRadius:OuterRadius seems to control the lamp light somehow. The default values are 5:8 (iirc).
in:out..... result
5:8 ..... normal lamp light
1:1 ..... no light at all
10:1 ..... light reaches far away but behaves erratically
1:10 ..... tiny light
10:9 ..... dark around hero, ring of light far away
9:10 ..... seems pretty good, looks like normal light but bigger
90:100..... hell yes! lights up the night! maybe a bit too much.
50:80 ..... seems the same as 90:100... must be different somehow
12:15 ..... very nice, looks like a bright lamp should
It's not really a ratio because 90:100 creates a much larger light than 9:10. I wish I knew exactly what these 2 values are, but 12:15 seems very nice, so I think I'm going to stay with that for myself. It has a difference of 3 between inner and outer like the default... that might be good.
I'm not sure how to package this as a mod, but you can do it if you like, or tell me how. I think others might like this since the Fable nights are very dark on many people's screens.
and thanks for the help, too.

well the inner radius can't be the distance away from the hero where the light starts, because 90:100 creates light starting from right on the hero, just like the default lamp, not 90 units away.
I tried changing the other non-zero values and nothing seemed to happen. Can't help you there.
I'll package it as 12:15 and upload it I guess. I'm guessing as long as outerradius - innerradius = 3 you can just raise and lower the values to get a stronger or weaker lamp with the same properties as the default.
