obsidian weather wars version of fog

My editor for the great Obsidian weather model. I'm mainly making this for Skyrim VR, but of course, it works with normal SSE

I do this for a few reasons...one is to do something different. I also like to hide LODs and pop them out as much as possible. Finally, VR aliasing is most noticeable in clear weather, so this helps in that aspect.

Changelist for Original Obsidian

• Clear all clear sunny weather. The new basic weather is overcast and cloudy.

All fog weather is adjusted to be closer, changing similarly to the volumetric fog model. Fog is more frequent in swampy areas.

• All areas have been modified for more frequent use in harsher weather. The type of weather that is kept is mostly close to vanilla, for example, in most places it usually doesn't snow in vanilla games i.e. Riften and Solitude. But in a few areas like Whiterun, your chances are slim.

• Added a small chance of getting Bloody Eclipse in various regions from Dawnguard DLC

• Increased weather diversity in many areas

Do not use the Seasons feature when using this version of Obsidian

I highly recommend using the following mods. (Although not necessary)

wet and cold

real rain

real life snowflakes

Snowflake Mod

morning fog

misty clouds

Ethereal Cosmos (weather settings you won’t see the sky as much)

footprints

Of course there is no snow under the roof to get any patches for the various mods you have

Better dynamic snow

Better dynamic snow patches

Better dynamic gray

I used Whiterun Hold's Big Forest, so that's how the Tundra's weather is set up. Alpine Forest can also be used, but neither is required.

Thanks again to the author of the Great Obsidian Weathers mod!

I made this for a few reasons.. one was to just do something different. I also like to hide LODs and pop in as much as possible. And lastly in VR aliasing is most noticeable in clear sunny weather so this helps that aspect a lot.

List of changes from original Obsidian

• All clear sunny weathers removed. The new base weather is an overcast cloudy weather.

• All foggy weathers tweaked to be closer, changes similar to the volumetric fog mod.  Swampy areas will have fog much more often.

• All areas modified to have harsher weathers more often. Kept the types of weather mostly close to vanilla, for example, it still doesn't snow in most locations it usually wouldn't in the vanilla game ie Riften and Solitude. But you will have small chance in a few areas like Whiterun.

• Added small chance to have the blood red eclipse from Dawnguard DLC in various areas

• Added more variety in weathers to numerous areas

Do NOT use the seasons feature when using this version of Obsidian

I highly recommend using the following mods with this. (none are required though)

Wet and Cold

Real Rain

Real Life Snowflake

Snowflake Mod

Morning Fogs

Ethereal Clouds

Ethereal Cosmos (you won't see the Sky that much with this weather setup)

Footprints

No Snow under roof of course get any patches for various mods you have

Better Dynamic Snow

Better Dynamic Snow Patches

Better Dynamic Ash

I use The Great Forest of Whiterun Hold so the Tundra weather was setup with that in mind.. Alpine Forest will work as well but neither is required.
