📋 About This Mod
They say that patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a Nuclear Winter.
You know why they say "almost"?
Because Snow will eat your framerate for breakfast.
Yes, if you've ever spent any length of time in the Lucky 38 Presidential Suite, you might notice that your framerate can drop almost by half.
The reason for this is the Snowglobe Collection; specifically the cute snow particles that build up within each globe.
But don't let those adorable little baubles fool you; they have a ravenous hunger for Frames. Hunting in packs, they can bring down even the most powerful PCs.
Thankfully with a little tinkering in Nifskope I found it's possible to remove their particle emitters, which is what this mod does.
