v1.0
12/6/2011
This is a collection of carefully crafted batch files for skyrim that will be of great use to any aspiring photographer.
Primarily it gives robust control of the weather type that is in effect. With over 60 weather types to choose from, you are sure to find the right atmosphere for your shot.
The Skyrim Photography Kit also comes with a full range of Lenses for any application you require. The lenses are set to Real World Lens Angles ranging from 13mm all the way to 1200mm. Wide and Medium focal length lenses also have Freecam (F) and Freecam Stoptime (FS) versions. Providing you with the tools necessary to get the PERFECT SHOT.
----------------------------------
Installation
Extract contents of the RAR file to your skyrim Directory (where your skyrim.exe is)
Customization
If you download the optional Lens Kit Complete package you will have several more lenses to choose from to add to your toolset, these are intermediate lenses filling in the gaps of the standard sets.
You can also rename any files to whatever your preference is.
Uninstallation
Remove the files you extracted to your skyrim directory
----------------------------------
Contents
There are 3 Versions or LEVELs of the skyrim photography kit.
Master, Expert, and Adept.
Master and Expert both have the full version of the Weather Control Module and the same Standard Lens Kit, they differ in the way the lens directory is setup.
Adept has a simplified weather control module as well as a simplified lens kit
- - - Extras - - -
Lens Kit Complete - The full set of 63 lens kits, here you will find the intermediate lenses that I decided to cut from the standard package for simplicities sake, as well as Freecam versions of the TELEPHOTO lenses that I decided to cut from the standard package because they are unwieldy...
Weather Example Pack - A screenshot of every vanilla weather, sorted according to the weather control module to help you quickly see what is available to you.
Weather Control Standalone - just the weather control module for users who have not a care in the world about the printscreen button
