Real Shelter - Full Release

- PLEASE READ-

Since my retirement from modding, the tools I have used to make this work have changed significantly.

As such the 1. 4 patcher may not work correctly unless using Tes5edit 3. 1. 0.

If you wish, you can also use version 1. 2.  It will still do the job, however it may have some visual incompatibilities with ENB weathers and more recent weather mods.

What is Real Shelter?

Real Shelter is quite simple.  When a player goes under shelter, rain and snow will stop ghosting through solid objects.

What's so special about that?

"My latest character is in Solitude right now, it's the middle of night and it just began raining buckets and there's thunder overhead, rather dismal weather and I'm using Frostfall. Normally I would seek an inn but now I don't have to! I'm standing in a nice and warm shelter right next to the Fletcher watching this great wall of rain pour down. Awesome!" - Calipercat

Sweet! But.. How?

Skyrim's precipitation is an illusion - a flat shader filling the observer's field of view. It's like wearing glasses with an animated rain overlay on the lens. So the rain doesn't really exist in Skyrim's world - and this is why it falls through everything. Now when shelter is taken Real Shelter determines the weather type and replaces it with a no-precipitation version of itself. Then it activates pre-placed in-world weather effects that surround the shelter. When the shelter is exited the localized effects are turned off and the prior weather is restored.

So Why Are There No Weather Compatibility Patches?

Rather than having hundreds of compatibility patches for everyone's unique weathers, I have included a SkyProc-like tes5edit patch that you will run that will do all that work for you.  It will also give you the chance to customize your patch even further by updating your ENB weatherlist if you have it as well as a few other goodies.  By having it done this way I can ensure
