Picta - Weathers of Aurbis is the most advanced Weather Mod and ENB Preset to date, featuring believable, fantastical but still fitting visuals.
This is all made possible with Silent Horizons 2 - Shader, which is the best that is possible for ENB on a technical level.

According to Users Performance is quite good. Expect a 5 - 10 FPS loss.
If it's a lot more than that please report it.

None besides the obvious ones

Picta - Weathers of Aurbis is the most advanced Weather Mod and ENB Preset to date, featuring believable, fantastical but still fitting visuals.
This is all made possible with Silent Horizons 2 - Shader, which is the best that is possible for ENB on a technical level.
Weather Variety
- With over 100 unique Weather Types that have been created with utmost care to assure that every single second is a cinematic masterpiece.
Regional Variety
- Regional Weather (Color) Variation and Chances make each Region feel distinct without breaking the cohesive Region to Region experience.
Advanced Cloud System
- A new cloud system using Panoramic Cloud Textures provides an ethereal experience to the Skies of Aurbis, this system also allows for seamless blending between Fog and Sky, permanently eliminating well known "Horizon Seam".
