[Mangaclub]

Just updated it today if you  want to try Pure Weather one day:

 

6.03 Vivid / 5.63 VanillaPure Weather 2.1 Compatibility Upgrade:Updated all ENB Weathers, Weather patches and Extendes Weathers to be compatible with Pure Weather 2.1.Quiet alot changed there so you will see differences, positive ones i hope ;)New:Added Real Shelter Vividian COT Compatiblity patchThis one can be used when using Real shelter and our CoT weather patch together. It should reduce the differences when you step in and out of a shelter.Load after Real shelter.

Mangaclub,  thanks for banging out a great ENB.  I'm trying everything you have put out right now.   Below is the plugin order I have under MO.  

I have looked at your order info on your Nexus mod page but the date shows April and since a lot of this is new I'd like to make sure I'm not screwing anything up.  Thank you !

Yes i certainly should find a bit time to update this :)

Please load the extended Weathers after our Weather patches, otherwise they will get overwritten.

ESS Patch for CoT DG Patch.esp  could be best loaded before any vividian esp's

the rest looks good :)

[Quahogs]

Fantastic.   Thanks for the quick reply !   How about: Vividian - Diverse Weathers - CoT + PW + AOS.esp Active   and    Vividian - Diverse Weathers - AOS.esp Active.  Is there a redundancy here or should there be two esps ?

[Mangaclub]

Oh i See, you got two diverse weathers there, eh i should have slept more :D

Please just use the Vividian - Diverse Weathers - CoT + PW + AOS.esp  since you have PW installed.

[Quahogs]

Are you familiar with merging your vividian esps ?   I follow NEO's playbook :  He has merged the below.   Will I run into a problem if I merge ALL of the Vididian esps that I have ?

• Vividian - Weather Patch Vanilla.esp
• Vividian - Weather Patch CoT.esp
• Vividian - Extended Weathers.esp
• Vividian - Extended Weathers - CoT.esp
• Vividian - Torches Preset.esp
• Vividian - Wearable Lanterns Preset.esp

[Smile44]

No you wont but you will need to load the resultant merged patch after Real Shelter.esp which itself needs to load after any and all mods that affect the weather. I have it loaded thus..

@ Smile  does your   <CoT-WeatherPatch.esp>  patch include the climatesoftamriel falskaar.esp plugin too ?  

[Mangaclub]

ah no that would require every vividian enb user to have falkaar, that would then be a bit too much :D

But we support it via our enb weathers.

[Smile44]

Yep as described in SR:LE.

 

In SR:LE the CoT plugins and Falskar addon are merged into the CoT-WeatherPatch.esp. So nowt to do with Vividian.

@Mangaclub @Smile -  thanks so much.  Can't WAIT to get this beauty rolling !

Pureweather.esp

 

Do you recommend ELFX be before or after these 3 mods ?  I recall seeing varying setups hence my confusions.

 

 

Also I see that NEO has the weather and ENB mod BEFORE conflicting graphics but in your Weather WIKI you note :Either install this in it's own section after Conflicting Graphics or place them in Landscape and Environment

 

Thanks !

Should be as Neo recommends in the guide the only change is PW and RS with the merged Vividian ENB.esp moved as shown above. No need to change anything else. I am not using ELFX at the moment myself and I am happy with the results.

 

[Quahogs]

@Smile    I don't have the modding skills to veer from a guide but I'm curious if not ELFX then what?  Is it due to less conflict resolution   ?

[Smile44]

Nope and you don't n eed to veer away from the guide, I changed because ELFX needs a lot of patching. Just stick the guide and you are good.

 

Of course Vividian goes without saying (thought I'd better slip that in there so as not to accidentally hijack the thread).
