      Would need a really good ck modder for that. I'll release, just need to get the quality up and a neck vertebrate (if it's called that) back in place.
      2019 started great and then I'm either ill injured or working, or all three for weeks.
      I'm staying optimistic.

      i made an .esp file to make Morthal's swamps much more foggy you won't even see the clouds ,stars at night. the main probleme is the place is still to safe compared to what the swamps should be just take for instance the Everglades !
      it would be nice to have a muddy ,noisy ,heavy background to match it but the CK has its limits.

      Self-belief and hard work will always earn you success. someone once told me this ,it helped me a lot so i hope it will do the same for you.

      THank you. I need to optimize the spec map. Change some colors and improve the normal map.
      It's to bright at vertain angles yet.

      After that I'll upload it as an alternate version

    can you add a depth map or maybe they just need a Alpha channel, Is this a new mod like real life skyrim puddles and it makes puddles build up on land? Picture looks great btw

      It's just a simple landscape texture. Flat , no scripts, nothing. I could try working with cubemaps on meshes.

      If somebody would expand skyrim puddles that would be epic. Love that mod.

    Yeah, the puddles have got to be a pain to work with.

    Mind you, I have 0 knowledge of how this kind of thing works, but could the puddles on flat or bumpy ground be some kind of specular effect and tint applied to spots on the ground? Hmm, they'd have to have a shape. any way to make them have shape but no thickness? I'm just thinking out loud here - it's a fascinating problem and I'd like a better understanding of the way this type of thing works.

    Good luck!
