Hi! I came here to use the mod from Watch the Skies, which recommends this mods to use alongside it.
Sadly it destroys my particular shade of water, turning it blue.
At first I thought it was Watch the skies but after some tweaking I discovered the culprit is Weather Adjuster, something is affecting the color of the Sea Water, changing it into a deep blue, which is personally not to my liking.
Is there a way to avoid this?

And this is how Weather Adjusters changes the color of all water everywhere, which is a bit jarring if you like certain aesthetics
Any idea if this is compatible with this mod https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/46158?tab=files ? I ask since for Fliggerty's Almanac there's a patch, and this is quite a similar mod...
An archived download link from Fliggerty's website (https://web.archive.org/web/20161103152112/http://download.fliggerty.com/file.php?id=457) worked for me, but the Weather Adjuster patch appears to replace the original .esp and there are no other files in the download, so the Weather Adjuster patch should work as a standalone.
In case I wanted to uninstall this mod after using it: Will all the changes it has made to the morrowind.ini cease to have an effect? (does it modify existing settings?) Is there a way to completely revert the changes it has made to the ini file short of keeping a backup from before the mod was first used?
Is it possible to automatically adjust a region's preset in the middle of a game?
I'm wondering specifically because I'm using a preset that gives Ashlands + Molag Amur + Red Mountain very red skies almost constantly, which fits rather well. However, after the conclusion of the main quest, as you exit the Dagoth Ur's citadel, you're supposed to see clear blue skies so you know that you have ended the Blight and saved Vvardenfell. Is this already a feature, or is it possible to add it in? It'd probably hurt immersion if I had to manually change the weather settings before walking out the door.
Now that I think of it, this could be used for other quest stages as well. My present has the Ashlands around Ald'ruhn start with those very red skies. I was thinking if might be better for Ald'ruhn to start more like West Gash, then gain those deep red skies after a certain point in the Main Quest -- somewhere between Zainsubani Informant and Corprus Cure. Likewise, I could shift the presets for Grazelands and West Gash (maybe other regions as well) to those deep red skies late in the Main Quest, between 'Hortator & Nerevarine' and 'Citadels of the Sixth House'. All kinds of potential for visual storytelling here.
As much as I wanted to love this mod it just made my game waaaayyy too dark, I couldn't see at all outside most parts of the day and I don't really have the patience to go through every single preset to adjust it for every cell. Endorsed though, great mod for people who have the patience to tweak it.
I will probably sound incredibly dumb and most likely something I could fix easily but can't figure out, the only thing I have done is changing the key and make a few presets for some ares, midgame went to check on it to change the weather and not only the key have reset but everything except the default preset was gone, I have used back ups I had for the mod, updated everything, I tried doing all custom presets again and it didn't even let me rename them, no idea what to do at this point.

Is the Fliggerty's original mod necessary to use your patch? or is your patch a standalone?

e: Nevermind! Watch the Skies had its own weather adjust.json that was overriding it!
