    UPDATE at 20.09.2020

    This was one of my first mod and it took a lot of time to work in it! Long time has passed and lot has happened in my life that took me far from modding and took part of my life away, i had a divorce to deal and depression... so honestly sometimes you don't want to deal with others problems plus as a modder i 've learnt that you can't make everyone happy, the mod is and must be only your vision an idea! Anyway i think modding and flowing ideas is always a point of start for everyone, give inspiration or an ideas than can grow in other different minds...
    For example Minty lightning that was a base mod for lightning has became a new mod and found a new life with Strom Lightning by Shizof
    VAE is not a perfect mod and i admit i've never been deeper in it, i am really greatful that Qwinns made a correct version of my mod https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/24665

    For the future it maybe possible that something will come alive, as many of you have seen there's a new mod call Vibrant Weapons that has some really nice ideas of enchantments, the only limit of it is that is expanded only to player and not to npc, i offer my help to the author and i am trying to make the same system that worked for VAE to work with his cause it's easier than apply scripting, not sure it will be possible but eventually you will see updates on this

    To all users of have the issue of lightning color i remind you this link, you just need to overwrite the DDS if asked
    https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/15565
    when ask to overwrite the DDS from my mod just say YES

    Is this compatible with Summermyst? I mean will the effects show if I used enchantments from Summermyst?

      Never disable a mod mid-game, old advice. Just disable the plugin with your mod manager.  While this mod was a good concept, it's too much ... It blocks my view and I can't even see my reticle.  It was loaded from a Collection I installed, I disabled it and it was fine.

      I felt the same way.

      I feel an enchantment visual mod that just makes the runes higher res, and flare up with some sparks, or a little lightning bolt or something from time to time would be more than enough.
      Just swinging a pillar of flame feels a bit much.

      Thanks for the tip Skyrob57 because this mod is definitely not for archers especially ones like me that pride themselves in long distance shots because the effect on arrows and even more so crossbow bolts you can't see anything. I'm using the Immersive and Adult collection and spent an hour or so trying to figure out which mod was doing this because it wasn't ever a problem in any of the mod lists I created myself for the last few years. I just wish there was a way to remove the effect from bows and keep it on the melee weapons where it isn't so bothersome and does look good. 

      Don't get me wrong it's a great mod for the most part it's just not designed for archers but most mods and mod lists aren't

    Random question. How did you make the character pose with the sword to the sky? I've been looking for a pose like this.

    Hello, I am a Mod Author for Skyrim on Xbox and I was wondering If I could include this mod into a mod pack that i'm working on. Including this into a mod pack helps console players negate the 150/150 mod limit. I will give credit and link back to your nexus profile page as well. I hope this message finds you well! :)

    If anyone here is unhappy with the yellow ice effect around your hands when you have <relevant frost spell> and when you take frost damage, this is caused by a single texture file provided by this mod.

    Simply go into your VAE mod folder, go into textures > effects, then delete "magicicewisps.dds".

    This texture file is in the vanilla archives and will restore the blue ice effect.

    So my visual effects disappeared when I leveled up weapon enchanting skils in ordinator. Is there a fix for this?
