Improved Weapon Enchantments FX SE

SE port Improved Weapon Enchantment FX - Animated effects shader by darkman24

The original fire texture and alternating shock texture are included in the main installation, but alternate fire textures and original shock textures are available in optional files.

This mod is a simple texture replacer that I made because other similar mods just didn't suit my taste at all. It modifies some of the FX shaders used by the magic effects of weapon enchantments, which replace textures and animate them. The new effect is mixed and combined from a number of free textures, with a minimum size of 512x512 pixels. Unfortunately I didn't add the particle shader because I don't know how to edit nif files, I tried to follow the guide but every one of my attempts ended in failure.

Here's how they look in-game: http://www.youtube.com/watch? v = h3j5jyQhV64

Thank you BDMods!!!

The effect is more noticeable in dark environments and I don't want them to be too bright. But I can do a brighter version if needed.

The only issue that can't be fixed has to do with the way the effects shader is applied to the texture. In most cases, in swords, the blade grain is divided into pieces, sometimes arranged at different angles on the grain. So you might see boundaries between these clips and even animations moving in different directions on the weapon.

compatibility:

This mod is incompatible with any mod that changes the effect shader used by the magical effects of weapon enchantments.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This mod will not overwrite/edit any textures from vanilla games, so it is fully compatible with any mod that uses effect textures.

Compatible with Summermyst Just load this mod after Summermyst!

This mod is a simple texture replacer, which I made because other similar mods didn't suit my taste fully. It modify a few FX shaders used by magic effects of weapon enchantments replacing textures and setting animations for them. New effects are mixed and combined from some free textures and their minimum size is 512x512 pixels.  Unfortunately I didn’t add particle shaders because I don’t know how to edit nif files, I tried to follow the guides, but my every attempt ended in failure.

How they look in game is shown on this video:

Thanks BDMods!!!

The effects are more visible in a dark environment, I didn't want make them too bright. But if there will be a need I can do a version where they will be brighter.

The only issue that cannot be fixed is related to the way how effects shaders are applied to the texture. In most cases e.g. in swords the blade texture is divided into several pieces sometimes arranged at different angles on texture. So it is possible that you will see the boundaries between these pieces and even the animation will move in different directions on the weapon.

Compatibility:

This mod is incompatible with any mod that alters effect shaders used by magic effects of weapon enchantments.

Important: This mod does not override/edit any textures from the vanilla game, so it is fully compatible with any mods that utilize effect textures.

Compatible with Summermyst just load this mod after Summermyst!
