📋 About This Mod
(Iceborne Updated)
Removes the rain effect in-game. (sounds and splash effect on character remain)

I would of had adjusted it to optimize and make it look better, but the Tex tools available at the moment can't convert these particular textures

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 2,312 endorsements and 48,068 downloads
- Does exactly what it says: removes rain visuals for a performance boost
- Easy to install and uninstall with explicit file paths
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in January 2020 — may not be compatible with the latest game patches
- Author notes texture tools couldn't optimize the effect, so visual quality isn't improved
- Rain sounds and splash effects remain, which might break immersion for some
For Monster Hunter World players who experience stutters or framerate drops during rain and want a quick performance fix. Also for those who simply dislike the rain visual and prefer a clearer view. Skip if you want a complete weather overhaul or if you're on a high-end rig that handles rain fine.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place the NativePC folder directly in your Monster Hunter World root directory (e.g., Steam/steamapps/common/Monster Hunter World).
- If you're using other mods that modify rain effects, this mod may conflict — check for overlapping files.
- To uninstall, delete the listed .efx and .tex files from your NativePC folder, not the whole folder.
