I made a "Buy me a coffee" page, if you want to buy me coffe. Buying a
coffee will not only be helping me to create more mods, but also to

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Lightweight and script-free, so it won't bloat your save or cause script lag
- Community-approved with 378 endorsements and nearly 6k downloads
- Uses ESL and SPID, which are modern standards for compatibility
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in January 2022, so it might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim updates or mods
- Only affects uncloaked NPCs, so NPCs with cloaks or certain armor might not show the effect
- Potential conflicts with other visual overhaul mods that alter weather or shaders
For Skyrim players who want a simple, performance-friendly immersion boost during rain without heavy scripting. If you're into visual realism and don't mind a mod that's been dormant for a while, this is a solid pick. Skip if you want more comprehensive weather effects or if you're on the latest Skyrim version and worried about compatibility.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have SPID (Spell Perk Item Distributor) installed and up to date, as RainWet relies on it to apply the shader to NPCs.
- Load RainWet after other weather or visual mods in your load order to ensure the wet effect isn't overwritten.
- If you're using a mod manager, enable the ESL flag to save plugin slots and avoid reaching the 255 limit.
