RAID Weathers

Introduction:

RAID Weathers is the first weather mod specifically optimised for stealth and combat detection mechanics. It is based on ELFX Weathers, but all visuals have been completely overhauled. It is very performance friendly. Well over 1500 hours of work have gone into this. Also on Legendary Edition and Xbox.

Screenshots and video note:

The pictures and video were taken on a mostly vanilla setup. No ENB or high-def texture/asset mods were used.

The 2nd video has weather audio, the first one does not.

Features:

- Some of the best rains, snows, and fogs ever implemented in a weather mod. Includes extra powerful storm and heavy fog variants.

- Uniquely optimised for detection balance. What you see = what enemies see. Darkness and bad weather realistically affect sneaking.

- Dark nights, fully balanced for sneak gameplay (rain storms at night are nearly pitch black, but clear and aurora nights are not as dark).

- Very performance friendly - optimised for use without godrays and ENBs (but you can use one if you want).

- Adjusted weather probabilities for each region, for better variation, with slightly higher chance of rain, fog, and storm variants.

- Greatly reduced vanilla Skyrim's laggy and exaggerated eye-adaptation effects. This also enhances thunder flash visuals, and is good for VR.

- Improved contrast and vibrancy, by removing Bethesda's Delhi / Beijing smog effect (their bad "godray" implementation). This is also good for VR.

- Includes semi-realistic custom star and galaxy textures.

- Covers Skyrim and DLC weather, and many new lands mods.

A few examples of other technical/visual features (some of these are not found in any other weather mods):

- implemented a basic rotation of mild weathers that are automatically used for most new lands mods if they don't have a weather system

- Increased frequency of weather changes to every ~10 ingame hours (vanilla was about ~18 hours).

- fixed a vanilla "bug" where stormy weather had a high chance to stay with you even when fast-travelling across the whole of Skyrim

- fixed a vanilla bug where the "clear skies" shout would cause cloudy weather instead of clear weather

- fixed a vanilla bug where the same thunder sound gets used each time there is a thunder flash - now all thunder sounds get used randomly

- thunder flashes correctly illuminate the whole scene, instead of mostly just grass (a bug in some weath
