get snow

Adds snowy visual effects for players and NPCs when snow falls. Affects all living and deceased NPCs and wildlife within a radius. SSE converts Hoax2's popular mod with Obsidian Weathers and Wet & Cold compatibility.

The original Get Snowy mod is open for conversion, so here it is!

The original description is as follows (modified to be relevant to SSE version)...

While I wholeheartedly support Valve, I do not support uploading my mods to SteamWorkshop, please respect this decision.

Special thanks to Chesko for supporting me and allowing me to tweak FrostFall's shaders

describe:

Adds snowy visual effects for players and NPCs when snow falls.

Affects all living and deceased NPCs and wildlife within a radius.

In version 4+ the entire character will have snow.

Version 5.5+ has no snow on the skin (not as consistent as ver4).

Keep it simple philosophy:

Getting Snowy doesn't do anything, it never will, because it doesn't use scripts at all.

Meaning No Save-Bloat, no crash to desktop, no need for SKSE, and simple safe uninstall.

Recommended - Brawl Bugs Patch

It's not required to run Get Snowy, but it can prevent an argument from becoming an actual fight.

compatibility:

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

Brawl Bugs Patch is recommended

• Wet and cold: fully compatible.
• Wet and Cold - Ashes: Compatibility patch for UnmeiX [Available on this download page]
• Obsidian Weathers: Compatibility patch for grvulture [Available on this download page]
• FrostFall: fully compatible with Chesko (if he increases compatibility, such as LE version)
• Footprint: This should be below/after the footstep in the load order. I actually don't know why. [via lendellprime]
• ApachiiSkyHair: No snow on hair [see FAQ-2 below]
• If the precipitation classification is set to "Snow", this will apply to all weather modules
• DragonBorn DLC: Issues in Ash Rain - Bethesda set their Ash to Snow*derp. (See FAQ-4 below) [Install Wet&Cold and provided Snow Snowy patches]

Should be compatible with anything else.

frequently asked questions

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

Q2: "The effects on [x] items in [x] mod won't appear or look weird."

----This is a flaw in the model, not the behavior of the membrane shader applied by this mod.

Please contact the mod/model author and provide them with screenshots. There

Actually I can't solve this problem. (I think

You'll find it works just as well as vanilla frosting magic. )

Question 3: "Can you change the effect to have more/less snow?"

----I can't appease everyone.

Q4: "DragonBorn's Ash has a snowflake effect in the rain. Why not fix it?"

----Install Wet&Cold and the provided Get Snowy patch

----This is only a problem because Bethesda lazily set up their Gray Rain

snow instead of a new precipitation classification.

I recommend saving in the snow first.
