📋 About This Mod
I copied RASS_Spell_ColdBreath_Regions as an override into a new plugin, then added a new RASS_Effect_Coldbreath_Regions effect with 4 conditions:
What it does:
Checks that the actor does not already have the global value RASS_Activate_ColdRegions
Checks that the actor is not in interior cell
Checks that the game month is greater than 10
Checks that the game months is less than 1
If the 4 conditions are met, you will have cold breath.
This was suggested as comment on R. A. S. S. Rain Ash And Snow Shaders - Wet Frost Cold Dust mod page to use with Seasons of Skyrim SKSE. I take zero credit other than following the suggestion and creating this plugin.
You should be able to load the plugin anywhere after/below R. A. S. S, it modifies a single record from that mod.
It seems to work as described for me, any issues let me know and I'll look into it.
Added optional version to use with Four Seasons - Faster Seasons of Skyrim, forces cold breath for gamemonths 1, 5 and 9.
Main file:
v1 - Initial release
v2 - Update to account for gamemonth value starting at 0 (0 - 11 instead of 1 - 12)
Optional faster/four seasons patch:
v1 - Initial release
v2 - reverted gamemonths from 0, 4, 8 to 1, 5, 9. Thanks to ErikOlof for creating a fix version, I imagine it's the same as my changes.
Unfrozen patch:
v1 - Initial release
RASS (R.A.S.S) Seasons of Skyrim Patch forces cold breaths from the R.A.S.S mod to appear anywhere in Skyrim during November, December, January, and February, regardless of region. A simple compatibility patch for players who want seasonal consistency.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted with 609 endorsements and over 611k downloads.
- Simple, focused purpose: makes cold breaths seasonal across all of Skyrim.
- Lightweight patch that doesn't overhaul other R.A.S.S features.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects cold breaths—no other seasonal changes.
- Requires R.A.S.S mod, so it's useless without it.
For Skyrim players who use R.A.S.S and want cold breaths to appear everywhere during winter months, not just in cold regions. Skip if you don't use R.A.S.S or prefer region-based realism.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Ensure R.A.S.S is installed and active before adding this patch.
- Load this patch after R.A.S.S in your mod order to ensure it overrides correctly.
