📋 About This Mod

  
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Snowy Surfaces Sound, Collision and Aesthetics aims to fix a series of problems that have always affected models covered by snow such as DirtCliffs, RockPiles, MountainTrims, RockCliffs and others.

With this mod installed you will be able to correctly hear the noise of footsteps on the snow on all snowy surfaces of the related models.

Furthermore, numerous ugly and excessively sharp transitions between rocks and snow have been fixed.

The collisions of the models used have been refined, so no more feet stuck in the rocks

or your character floating half a meter off the ground.

Users who have Footprints installed will finally see their footprints in the snow on all those terrain surfaces that were previously completely ignored.

Snowy Surfaces Sound, Collision and Aesthetics FOMOD includes Majestic Mountains and Better Dynamic Snow 2. 11 versions, also you can choose between standard meshes and parallax ones. I remind you that parallax requires Parallax Shader Fix or the latest ENB binaries + Better Dynamic Snow 2. 11 or Simplicity of Snow.
