This is probably rather a long shot. Right now I'm using this mod on its default setting:

I play with pretty black nights, seen here:

Now, with the game's pip boy light I can see nothing much more aside from my character's feet. So I knew I needed to increase the brightness which is why I got that mod. I like that mod, as when I first turn the pip boy on, I get this:

Problem is, that turns into this:

As you can see, in the 2nd picture just the area around my character is illuminated at first. Then the light blooms and illuminates a little more. You see some detail on the hills in the distance, more shapes on the road, etc.

The difference is subtler in these stills - in game it's rather distracting as my pip boy's light is illuminating the entire mountain in the background ever so slightly.

My question is, is there a pip boy light mod that will look more like the 2nd picture, or is there a way to alter the light so it doesn't reach the entire landscape? I know I'm being picky and this is something I can probably learn to live with, but it's a lot more immersive to have a limited view in the night - of course, not as limited as the default pip boy light that is.

Thanks for any insight...!
