📋 About This Mod

I was just cleaning up my mod list and finally decided to change from the original Visual Animated Enchants mod to the next version that is VAE2 or VAE 2023. Unfortunately, I use Summermyst and there was no way in hell I was going to remove that mod since I like it so much and also because I have way too many plugins that rely on it.

Since there's virtually no patches for VAE2, I decided to take it upon myself to make the patch(es) myself and share it with everyone in the process.

I based myself off the existing Summermyst patch for the original VAE and went from there. Keep in mind that some of the enchant shader, art, or overall looks might not entirely fit each Summermyst effects. I just used colors that I thought might fit what each enchantment does with what the description says.

That said, if you do have suggestions of a hit shader, enchant shader, or enchant art that may fit an enchantment better than what I currently put in as, please feel free to let me know. I'll see what I can do from there.

A few important things to note that may be seen as bugs:

1. I used the 2H enchant arts for all enchantments that do have an enchant art attached. What this means is for example the poison enchant art on a dagger will look too long versus a 1H or 2H sword. I decided to use the 2H effects since I prefer it too long than not long enough as it would of been with the standard effect.

2. Keep in mind that some of the enchant shader, art, or overall looks might not entirely fit each Summermyst effects. I just used colors that I thought might fit what each enchantment does with what the description says.
