📋 About This Mod

This is just a quick edit of 20 different statics to make their applied snow shader more consistent. Some of which aren't even used in the base game but have been used in various mods. This ESP is ESL flagged.

This edit just adjusts the "Snow angle" (basically how much snow is visible on a static) on 19 of the files, so that they match with the other pieces they are used with.

One file, "StockadeLeanTo01Light_SN", doesn't actually have snow cover in the base game and relies on textures, but often the snowy effect is lost. To ensure this static always looks snowy, I simply applied the snow shader to it so you can see the snow on it, regardless of your textures.

Fully compatible with:

Simplicity of Snow

Stretched Snow Begone

One minor overlap with Simple Snow Improvements, but it uses BOS for the change so it would win regardless. (Means they work fine together)

  • Fixes a specific visual inconsistency that many players notice.
  • Lightweight patch that doesn't overhaul anything, just tweaks snow shaders.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only covers 20 objects, so other snowy statics may still have inconsistent shaders.

  • Compatibility risk with other mods that alter the same static objects or snow shaders.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Check if the mod is for your game version, as patches can be version-specific.
  • If you use other mods that edit the same statics, load this patch after them to ensure it takes effect.
  • Since it's a simple patch, you can manually install by dropping files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager is safer.
