Deadly Spell Impacts

Overview

Fire, lightning, and frost spell impacts with their own unique textures. I didn't want to stray too far from the vanilla textures but at the same time wanted to add my own touch.

• []Greater variation in impact size within each spell.

  []Lightning and spit impacts get their own textures.

  []Melted snow impacts for fire/lightning spells (only works on what the game considers snow).

  []Parallax ice effect for frost impacts and fire/lightning melted snow impacts.

  []Increased dragon impact decals size.

  []Increased glow map brightness so you can kinda see the embers in the dark.

• Two different fire impacts depending on spell (optional).

High: 2048x2048 impact textures (1024x1024 uncompressed normals).

Medium: 1024x1024 impact textures (512x512 uncompressed normals).

Low: 512x512 impact textures (256x256 uncompressed normals).

Customization (manual)

decalflameburn01(_g, _n).dds = Fire missile impact (firebolt-like spells)

decalflamespread01(_g, _n).dds = Fire spread impact (flames, fire wall)

If you want the alternate fire impact for "missile-like" spells, rename the "00 - Data Required" file's decalflameburn01.dds, decalflameburn01_g.dds, and decalflameburn01_n.dds to decalflamespread01.dds, decalflamespread01_g.dds, and decalflamespread01_n.dds respectively. Copy "10 - Fire Cracks" files into the impactdecals folder. Finally place DeadlySpellImpacts - Two Fire.esp from the "40 Two Fire Esp" folder in your Data folder. You must load this esp after DeadlySpellImpacts.esp manually or through BOSS or it won't work.

If you want to use an alternate impact for a school of magic then copy the files within the folder(s) and overwrite the files in your Data folder.

Extract the textures folder and DeadlySpellImpacts.esp from within the "00 Data - Required" folder and place in [...]\steamapps\common\skyrim\Data folder.
