Description
I’ve always loved APC Home on the Move by Bostek. It’s a beautiful, cozy little player home that uses no custom textures or meshes: every eye-catching detail, every lovely element of this Fallout 4 mod was cleverly assembled from repurposed base game assets. For an overhaul like FROST, especially, the idea - a wrecked prewar APC vehicle that the player fixes up into a vehicle home - is a perfect fit for a lone survivor struggling to make it in a post-apocalyptic Commonwealth.
Luckily, Bostek left this mod with fairly generous modification and reuse permissions. So I cracked it open to see what I could do with it via an update patch, and it turns out I could do quite a lot.

Updates
v1.091 - Small fixes to the last: I missed a single placed light, and also neglected to revert lighting template and image space changes. I've run this version through Lightweight Lighting myself and verified that all of its changes have been reverted for the APC. APC Home Update should now be generally immune to changes made by lighting mods - it'll look as intended, and not stutter due to misplaced godrays.
v1.09 - This version of APC Home Update reverts every placed light used in the APC to their original vanilla equivalents, making them immune to any lighting changes you're making in other mods. This should resolve any issues with Lightweight Lighting Overhaul (or with any other light mod, for that matter).
