📋 About This Mod
I just wanted the dumb falling stuff gone but couldn't find a mod that did that except for one that also removed all other fog dust and smoke, but it has open permissions, so I stripped it down to get rid of the falling stuff and some other things that was making a waterfall flicker.
I'm also using lux and water for enb if somehow this mod will affect other lighting or water mods differently, this is what works for me atm though and haven't tested with other mods
If you notice any flickering elsewhere caused by this do let me know what and where.
If you wanna test if you have flickering with just the main thing removed and not the extra stuff incase it was my setup specific, remove the ambient folder from the mod and then deploy
