NoGlo looks and works a lot better now when lights are present.
You’d have to place several lights to light up just Sims but you’d end making everything else extremely bright, and the whole thing just didn’t look great. Version 2 was created mainly because I was annoyed at how dark Sims were indoors compared to their environment, especially with the lights ON.
I released the NoGlo mod about a year and a half ago to remove the blu-ish lighting and halo effect on Sims and I figured it was time to update it.
