About this mod
This mod endeavors to replace the Meshes and Materials for the vanilla glass roofs as well as some of the mods here on Nexus that add glass roofs. The new glass roofs stop the rain and *snow.

I know every one that has created a structure with a glass roof has been perturbed by the rain falling through. I got the inspiration from this mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/36127, to fix this occlusion issue.
Further to this I wanted to credit CCMADS, the creator of many amazing mods, not the least of which is "Settlement Objects Expansion Pack". CCMADS was one of the first to tackle this rain occlusion issue. If it wasn't for their initial work I wouldn't be here doing this.
The tweaks to the files stop the rain and still have some of the shading intact so the glass isn't "crystal clear" when it is foggy, raining, snowing. They are still more clear than a non-tweaked glass roof mesh; however, this is the trade off for having the rain stop at the roof.
*These tweaks stop snow as well. NOTE: one has to have a version of this mod installed: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/55934. I use Vivid Weathers so I use this version of the stop snow mod.
My mod is going to be a work in progress as there many mods that add glass roofs. Timing is going to be determined by my schedule and waiting for mod authors to give me permission to make the patches for their mods.
I use NIF Scope and Material Editor for these tweaks.
I've created a tutorial on how I make the fixes to the meshes and any materials.
