Excellent mod pal! I always install this whenever I play Most Wanted.

@ZetsuRX oops I forgot the link: https://pastebin.com/jnAihpbS

@ZetsuRX: I will leave this script with the vanilla VT/TOD values in case anyone wants to restore them, but I don't guarantee it will work in your case; your best bet would be restoring the VLT backups and start over.

@ZetsuRX: the mod only modifies the timeofday and visualtreatment values of the vlt database (hence it should work with HD Reflections without any problem whatsoever, I just tested it with the latest version); since you mentioned you have other mods installed there's a chance there's another mod that is interfering with mine or that VLTEd broke your database at some point between saves (that's a known issue).
