Why do?
Anyone who has touched grass and seen a river knows they usually don't flow as fast as they do in Skyrim, and while using Engine Fixes can reduce the game flow speed to that of a normal river, the rapid textures are unaffected and end up moving much faster than the water. It is quite the eyesore.

What do?
This mod simply flags vanilla rapids as deleted so they are never placed in the world upon load. The result is a very natural looking river.



Installation
There is an optional file that also removes the rapids that appear just before the peaks of waterfalls. They look a little goofy without them,
but I'd say its a net positive. In the future I intend on making a replacer for these fall peaks. Be on the look out for it!
Use it standalone or alongside the main file, they don't overwrite, nor are they dependent.
Both contain only one ESL-flagged plugin file. Install with your favourite mod manager, and it wont take up one of the 256 slots.
It is possible that there may be no immediate effect upon installation. Reloading the area should fix this.

Compatibility
Depends only on Skyrim.esm, load order does not matter.
Should be compatible with any waters that use the vanilla assets. If they dont then you likely dont need this.
I highly recommend Cathedral - Water. Specifically, "Lightweight Water Overhaul - Deep Vanilla Blue" is the water mod used in the pictures.
