📋 About This Mod
So... I can finally release the Season of Storms mod, a project I've been working on for a while...well, let's say for a lot :D this is pretty simple, this mod changes the lighing and wheater in Toussaint, so you'll need the Blood and Wine dlc to use it :) I also will upload the uncooked files in case someone wants to cook them with some other mod (keep in mind that I used the modEditor, which I think is the only tool to modifie .env files) and my personal Reshade, which is used in all the screenshots ;)
since someone asked me...the Reshade is mandatory, it does not change the overall appearance of the game, the mod work great also without the reshade, I uploaded it beacouse someone could like it like I do, but it is not a foundamental part of the mod... I'll provide comparison screens as soon as possible :) Edit: Comparisons screens added and version without thunder sound added :)
Permissions: you can do everything you want with these files, and if someone manages to improve my work I'll be happy to see the results, in my opinion this game has become the greatest game I have, not only for the majestic work of CDProject, but also for the GREAT work of all you modders, who have dedicaated time and passion to this fantastic game and universe...so thank you all, thank you very much ;)
A little philosophy time (nothing too important, the truly important things are above) xD
The idea behind all of this is not complicated... I'm currently reading the last book of the Witcher (which has just been published here in Italy), and everytime the characters say "Season of Storms" I wonder what could look like a bautiful landscape of Toussaint with many clouds and with sound of thunder in the background...so I tried to make it real...and it took a lot of work, since I'm definitely a dumb when it comes to modifie environment files, but in the end I managed to import vanilla clouds in Blood and Wine. The vanilla clouds don't replace the new ones, they are simply togheter now :) This mod only modifie 3 files, but in my opinion it changes a lot, and unfortunately is not compatible with STLM, unless you're using the version without the Toussaint modification... I sincerely hope you enjoy my mod as much as I do! :)
...this is also for you, mom, you once said to me that a photo without clouds is not interesting, that a landscape has no flavour without the variety of a cloudy sky...this mod is inspired by my favorite game and book and by you...so thanks for all you do and say for me, I never forget your words and actions :)
P. S. In case you pass by this page... Thank you very much It'sAGundam for reviewing my inventory mod on your youtube channel! ;)

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 170 endorsements from players who appreciate the atmospheric shift
- Simple concept: if you want Toussaint to feel less sunny and more dramatic, this delivers
- Lightweight visual tweak that doesn't overhaul the whole game, so it's easy to test
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016 — may be incompatible with current game patches or DLC
- Only affects Toussaint, so if you want global weather changes, this won't cover the rest of the game
For Witcher 3 players who love Toussaint but wish it had a more overcast, brooding atmosphere. If you're into photography mode or just want a change of pace from the usual sunny skies, this is a quick visual tweak. Skip if you want gameplay changes or weather overhauls across the entire map.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod only affects Toussaint, make sure you're in that region to see the changes — fast travel there to test.
- If you're using other weather or lighting mods, check for conflicts; this one is old, so it might clash with newer mods.
- Consider using a mod manager to easily toggle this on and off if you want to compare with vanilla weather.
