📋 About This Mod
Vanilla Nights edition now available ==THE ROAD WARRIOR WEATHER CYCLER==: Engineered to create a dynamic changing weather system, this includes all my singular weather types The Road Warrior Weather (60% chance) Apocalypto (40% chance) The Road (40% chance) BioHazard (40% chance) ==THE ROAD WARRIOR WEATHER CYCLER VANILLA NIGHTS==: Exactly the same, only with brighter nights. I have tweaked the night time colour scheme to my own liking, you may or may not notice the difference in moon lighting colour compared to Vanilla. Includes my new weather \"The Book Of Eli\" Feel Free to post any comments regarding this mod, such as requests for different percentages on each weather etc.. If anyone experiences a bug where the clouds of a particular weather aren\'t showing up, let me know and I\'ll contact Xepha of \"Dynamic Weather\" about writing up a script to fix it. Hopefully this doesn\'t occur. Enjoy! ==THE ROAD WARRIOR WEATHER==: In the two hours of nuclear fire from The Great War, the geography and climate of the Earth was changed significantly. Entire mountain ranges were created as the ground buckled and moved under the strain of the cataclysmic pressure produced by numerous, concentrated atomic explosions, and the climate changed horrifically. All the regions of the Earth, regardless of their location, suffered from a single, permanent season once the initial dust blasted into the atmosphere by the nuclear explosions had settled - a scorching, radioactive desert summer. ==APOCALYPTO==: A brown/red apocalyptic sky, with a choking dusty atmosphere and bleak sunrises and sunsets. Desolate and oppressive, this is meant to resemble a destroyed planet with no hope. ==THE ROAD==: An overcast sky, fog covered land, dark sunrises and sunsets and a foggy cold night. This is inspired by the novel THE ROAD and S. T. A. L. K. E. R weather. ==BioHazard==: Sickly green fog ridden climate, a radioactive toxic haze hangs over the wasteland.. You should get yourself a Gas Mask for those long journeys (for looks only) ==The Book Of Eli==: Current WIP, check screenshots for an idea of what to expect. RECOMMENDED MODS: Download the official soundtracks for the three S. T. A. L. K. E. R games for a much more post-apocalyptic and epic soundtrack. These mods truly make a new and very haunting Fallout 3 experience. I would even say it makes Fallout scary. http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1443 - S. T. A. L. K. E.
