Real Ice & Snow

by grVulture

UPDATE: Realistic Icicle:

Big Icicles are watery but not transparent (they are old ice accumulating to an icicle), small icicles are transparent (they

are fresh).

**************************************************************

1. INSTALLING THE PLUGIN

***********************************************************

BE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR ORIGINAL TEXTURES, in case you decide that

these textures are not for you.

To install, unzip the RIS. 7z

file into your Skyrim directory. Be sure to allow overwriting old

***********************************************************

2. PLAYING THE PLUGIN

***********************************************************

This is a collection of textures that replace the snowy landscape, and icey regions

in Skyrim. You don't need to do anything extra to enjoy it.

What you get:

- Snow that looks like real snow. And gives the impression of a much more accumulated snow on the ground. Snowy regions will be covered with more snow now.

- Icebergs, glaciers, and icefloes that look real. In reality, these do not look like icecubes in your soda! Neither do they look like green glass! Compare with real life photos and you'll see what I mean.

- Icicles that look like real icicles.

- Snowpaths that are covered more with snow, and footprints on snowpaths appear only during certain times of the day, and certain weather conditions.

- Fixed up road seams on snowy roads

joshawowo - A BIG thank you to Joshawowo, the creator of Real Glass Armor, who sent me a very good explanation of how to make the icicles transparent, together with a descriptive screenshot. A help very much appreciated, where without him, I wouldn't even know where to start with this!

Thanks a lot guys!
