📋 About This Mod
Increases rain particles density during raining weathers.
Pouring Rain is a lightweight Skyrim Special Edition mod that increases rain particle density during rainy weathers. It's compatible with default weathers and Surreal Lighting, but does nothing with True Storms or Rustic Weathers. A simple visual enhancement for players wanting heavier rain.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 415 endorsements and over 13k downloads.
- Lightweight and simple—just makes rain denser, no performance hit.
- Works with default weathers and Surreal Lighting out of the box.
⚠️ Cons
- Does nothing if you use True Storms—a popular weather mod—so check your load order.
- Rustic Weathers and Lighting already has this effect, so redundant if you run that.
- Last updated in 2017, so may be outdated for current Skyrim SE versions.
For Skyrim SE players who want heavier rain without overhauling their weather system. If you use default weathers or Surreal Lighting, this is a quick win. Skip if you run True Storms or Rustic Weathers—you'll get no effect or already have it.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install—no extra setup needed.
- Place this mod after weather mods in your load order to ensure it applies, but remember it won't override True Storms' particles.
- Check your weather mod's description—if it already includes rain density changes, you don't need this.
