Dynamic Weather - Rain
======================
Dynamic Weather - Rain adds two new weather types to the Dynamic Weather climate utilizing the rain meshes/textures and sound effects of Skingrad24's Enhanced Weather Rain mod.
I have made a point of basing Dynamic Weather Rain on Enhanced Weather Rain 1.5, as I believe there is a slight performance gain over using Enhanced Weather Rain 2.0. Or it could just be my 8800GTS starting to show it age...
Dynamic Weather - Rain should, however, be compatible with both versions of Enhanced Weather.
Heavy Rain uses thunder and heavy rain sound effects and lightning effects against a heavily overcast and dark weather type. Heavy Rain has a 50 percent chance of appearing.
Light Rain uses light rain sound effects against a modified, unused weather type, found in the Fallout3.esm (similar to Wasteland East). Light Rain has a 60 percent chance of appearing.
If you enjoy my implementation of Rain in Dynamic weather, don't forget to pop over to Skingrad24's Enhanced Weather page at the nexus and drop a Kudos/Endorsemant or two !
Skingrad24's Enhanced Weather - Rain and Snow @ the nexus: http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=6170
======================
***IMPORTANT INFO***
======================
Skingrad24's Enhanced Weather - Rain and Snow MUST be installed and its ESM activated for Dynamic Weather - Rain to work ! Pick it up here:
http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=6170
At the very least, the following should be extracted from Enhanced Weather Rain:
Data\Meshes\Mieimod\Different Weathers\sky\Rain.nif
---( Data\Meshes\Mieimod\Different Weathers\sky\RainUP.nif (only if using EW 2.0) )---
Data\Sound\fx\mieimod\Different Weathers\ambient\thunder\amb_thunder_01.wav
Data\Sound\fx\mieimod\Different Weathers\ambient\thunder\amb_thunder_01m.wav
Data\Sound\fx\mieimod\Different Weathers\ambient\thunder\amb_thunder_02.wav
Data\Sound\fx\mieimod\Different Weathers\ambient\thunder\amb_thunder_02m.wav
Data\Sound\fx\mieimod\Different Weathers\ambient\thunder\amb_thunder_03.wav
Data\Sound\fx\mieimod\Different Weathers\ambient\thunder\amb_thunder_03m.wav
Data\Textures\Mieimod\Different Weather\Rain.dds
---( Data\Textures\Mieimod\Different Weather\Rain2.dds (only if using EW 2.0) )---
Please note that Skingrad24's "Enhanced Weather - Rain and Snow in Fallout.esp" is NOT required and should NOT be used if you want to utilize Dynamic Weather's Rain weather types and climate. Enhanced Weather - Rain and Snow.esm IS required and should be loaded before Xepha's Dynamic Weather.esm.
I won't not be supporting Skingrad24's other Enhanced Weather - Rain and Snow addons/plugins (such as Radioactive Rain) as I don't use them myself - questions regarding these should be directed to Skingrad himself.
Also, I don't have any plans to implement snow weathertypes at this time.
