[]It includes the bizarre shadow fix from Ivanmind. So that mod is NOT required for this setup.
[
]It removes nat lens flare effects from certain overcast, rain and snow weathers. I thought they looked odd[]It recolors certain sky and cloud settings for a better balance on the volcanic tundra cloudy weather and the rain storm weathers
[]It removes rain from Apocrypha and soulcairn weathers
[]It makes sure that Minty Lightning fully works by setting a certain storm paramater, thanks to Gonzeh for mentioning this!
[]It fixes certain red sky settings from certain cloudy/clear weathers so transition looks more natural.
[]Patch for lux, reverting the region edits to Giant's Grove back to NAT for maximum consistency.
[]It reverts one raindrop to vanilla, specifically for the Fog Rain weather added by NAT3. This weather normally has square blocks as rain, which look absolutely horrible. So I reverted them to vanilla raindrops, this looks tons better. The rest of the rain is untouched in this matter.
Requires:
[]Moons and Stars - Sky Overhaul - (Optional) Really nice for more accurate moon positions
[]Enhanced Volumetric Lighting and Sunshadows - For the advanced sunshadows, volumetrics and moon lighting
