📋 About This Mod
DESCRIPTION
This mod adds a bit of distant mist to the basic clear weather.
Available light and heavy versions (check screenshots).
Using some settings and mods, the game may look good at night, evening and dawn, and also when having a raining or misty day. But in a clear day this game can't look nice, there is a lack of depth effect.
There are other options? Yes. You can install mods to have a high quality LOD, increase the far shadows quality and insanely increase the "uGridsToLoad", and of course playing on a Nasa computer. Otherwise, you can use small tricks like this mod.
This mod can be used standalone, or in combination with some depth of field mod. I recommend Dynavision.
This mod is compatible with most weather mods (like True Storms or NAC). Anyway you can load this mod after weather mods to ensure clear days look like this.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 475 endorsements and 121k downloads—clearly a hit.
- Tiny mod that does one thing well: adds depth to clear days without bloating your load order.
- Simple install—just drop it in and you're good to go.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in April 2022—might not be compatible with the latest game patches.
- No detailed description of what exactly the depth effect looks like—you'll have to try it yourself.
- Only affects clear days, so if you play in overcast weather often, you won't see much difference.
For players who want a subtle visual upgrade to clear-day scenes without overhauling their graphics. If you're a screenshot enthusiast or just like a bit more depth in your landscapes, this is for you. Skip if you want dramatic weather changes—this is purely a depth effect.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place the mod files in the correct directory (e.g., Data folder for Bethesda games) to avoid issues.
- If you use a mod manager, you can preview the effect by toggling the mod on and off in-game to see the difference.
- Since it's a visual mod, it should be compatible with most setups, but always check for conflicts with other weather or lighting mods.
