Changes weathers for a rustic/medieval style.
Rustic Weathers and Lighting
.: by Arindel :.
---------------------------------------
Complete weather overhaul meant to bring a level of immersion to you, the player, by adding new weathers, increasing variety and altering the weathers, lighting, colors and more, in order to achieve a rustic, medieval vibe with more natural colors.
Additionally, there is one optional plugin:
- Rustic Weathers - Presets: adds a Power spell that allows you pick one of the available presets which can alter your brightness, contrast and saturation.
For seasonal weathers support, download Seasonal Weathers Framework and the patch for Rustic Weathers there to add seasonal weathers support for use with Seasons of Skyrim SKSE so that you get snow weathers and no rain storms during winter and so on.
