Gunmod's Radiance Light System 2.4

[kazebird]

Will my computer handle this?

Intel Core2Duo, 2.16GHz
4GB of RAM (Displayed as 2.98 on my computer though)
ATI Radeon X1600
Windows XP SP2

I do use some of those resource hogging sprinklers in case that's relevant (Need to delete those. I have a butler anyway.)

The mod doesn't cause lot resets and the startup cheat is the same as 2.3 beta. Are you using the shader.package?

I'm not using the shader package because it makes my pool water look messed up. I guess I must have installed something else to cause a game reset or maybe it was when I was trying to find a bug using the testingCheats. Oh well, everything is fine now, and thanks for your response.
Looking forward to any updates you may have in the future.

I used to have the same GPU and processor. You should be able to run the mod as long as you have lighting and shadow on high.

this is great mod.. it add a lot to the game 
but do you think it's possible to make sims 2 lighting reach the level of sims 3 lighting or it is impossible..

dDefinder, I never paid attention to this problem until recently. I have Seasons but the Sun Moon and Stars are missing. I've searched the forums here and at other sites and no one has a solution.
My PC is pretty fast with plenty of memory and my graphics card is Nvidia 9600. All my game settings are as high as they can go.
Is there something in in the lighting mod that will let the stars, sun and moon show, or is this another EA screw up for Seasons?
Edit:
  Nevermind, I used Gunmod's camera mod and looked way the hell up, almost over head and saw the stars at night and a half sun by day looking like it was half way setting in the sky. I think there must be somekind of sky wall with Seasons  that  makes it hard to see the Sun Moon and Stars. It must be another EA screw up.

@jerryking
For the stars it depends on your lot view distance. The higher the more stars are in the sky. Those problems in both NL and Seasons.

@fear
No, The Sims 3 engine supports more graphical features such as realtime lighting and shadows, full time cycles, and bloom.

  sims 3 lighting seems too complicated..
thanks for your response.. and I must admit that this mod give some sims 3 atmosphere to sims 2.. you did great job

Reporting back now with a complete new graphic card - and it finally works! Heh.

By the way, my old one was an ATI 9200SE. I still don't know why it didn't work; it should have, but at least the culprit is known now and it resolved itself with the new one.
