I have noticed that the light in Raven Rock is an especially virulent green hue...
Occasionally other interiors are faintly green elsewhere in the game, but nothing quite as... well... green.. as in Raven Rock.

So I'm wondering is this the case for anybody else, or is it time for me to seriously begin looking at new video cards?

Or adjust the initialization file's lighting settings. And possibly add lighting mods, that adjust ambient light.

I tend to be a little nervous about messing with file settings, but I may look at the lighting mods. Do they slow down your FPS much? I need to be careful about what I load because my system, though upgraded with a second hard drive and additional RAM, is fairly old and basic. Which is also why buying a new card is not out of the realm of possibility...

Ideally, I'd like to get a new machine, but I need to make do for now

This is what I currently use:

[LightAttenuation]
UseConstant=0
ConstantValue=0.0
;
UseLinear=0
LinearMethod=1
LinearValue=3.0
LinearRadiusMult=1.0
;
UseQuadratic=1
QuadraticMethod=2
QuadraticValue=16.0
QuadraticRadiusMult=2.0
;
OutQuadInLin=0

Quadratic is a bit faster than Linear, especially in places like Balmora. You may need to tweak the QV and QRM values for greater or lower brightness, since I also use a mod that changes light to reflect the color of the physical source.

Thanks! Okay, stupid question here, but where do I find the initialization file's lighting settings? Is it in the same document you pull up to enable screenshots?

You should find the ones I put up in your ini file, just with different values. Do a search on LightAttenuation once you open it.
