This page is still under construction.All screenshots were captured as JPGs (for size and page load) with a Step SkyrimSE Guide mod list using FPS Monitor. Why a mod list and not vanilla? Vanilla is great for development, however few users actually run a fully vanilla setup. Thus, our mod list was used to replicate how weathers would look with mods installed. The most notable of these mods in the shots will be:
- Cathedral Landscapes
- Aspens Ablaze
- Enhanced Vanilla Trees
- Majestic Mountains
- Realistic Water Two
Some things to note about these compares:
- No custom weathers are included; only vanilla.
- Weathers with an
_Asuffix have auroras at night. - Sun/Glare sizes are set to 200/282, per the Step Guide; however, if a weather includes these they were allowed to overwrite Step.
- The Vanilla shot is without any Lighting and Weather (L&W) mods from the Guide active, besides EVLaS. This provides vanilla lighting and weathers.
- The Cathedral Weathers shot is with all L&W mods active with Cathedral Weathers.
- CW changes the ToD so to get a 1:1 compare, it's ToD was reverted to vanilla.
- The RAID shot is with all L&W mods active with RAID Weathers.
- RAID provides it's own sky textures and sun sizes. These were kept for the RAID shots, thus overwriting Step's selections.
- Screenshot times of day (ToD)
| ToD | Time |
|---|---|
| Day | 01:00 PM - 01:30 PM |
| Sunset | 06:00 PM - 06:30 PM |
| Night | 12:00 PM - 12:30 PM |
- Default sunrise/sunset ToD for weather mods
| Weather Mod | Sunrise Begin/End | Sunset Begin/End |
|---|---|---|
| Vanilla | 05:30 AM - 10:00 AM | 04:00 PM - 08:30 PM |
| Cathedral Weathers | 05:00 AM - 09:00 AM | 05:00 PM - 09:00 PM |
| RAID Weathers | 05:30 AM - 10:00 AM | 04:00 PM - 09:30 PM |
NOTE
All weathers were forced in place. Generally, we'd rather have shots from naturally occurring weathers in the game and all vanilla shots are such. However, more often than not when loading a save for a specific weather with anything other than vanilla, the weather would transition on load. Therefore, once the pre-saved locations were loaded for each shot the weather was forced and the shot taken. No weathers were forced outside their set regions (vanilla).
