Changelogs
This is a mesh and texture replacement for glaciers, ice floes, and icicles. This mod uses complex parallax and has dynamic cubemaps to better capture the surroundings in the ice reflections. This mod does not cover the frozen marsh ice meshes and textures, since those are usually covered by landscape mods.

For this mod to work as intended you will need one of the options below
ENB with the following settings:
  • EnableComplexParallax=true
  • EnableComplexParallaxShadows=true
  • EnableComplexMaterial=true
  • EnableDynamicCubemap=true

Community Shaders with the following add ons:

Installation Instructions for the full Mod
  • Download and install with your mod manager of choice
  • Make sure this mod wins any conflicts if you want all of the changes made by this mod to work as intended

Installation instructions if you want to try these textures out on Icy Mesh Remaster (IMR)
  • Make sure you have IMR installed
  • Download the option file called "Icy Mesh Remaster (IMR) Textures Only No Meshes" from the main files section.
  • Install with your mod manager of choice.
  • Make sure these textures overwrite the textures from IMR

If you use the textures with IMR, they will not look the same as the screenshots from this mod because IMR has different mesh settings than the meshes in this mod. It's not anything game breaking, it's just aesthetically different.

Icicles Only Installation
  • Download the Icicles Only - Meshes and Textures option from the optional files section
  • Install with your mod manager of choice
  • Make sure this this mod wins any conflicts to ensure you see the changes in game.
  • You can merge this with the IMR file if you want to use this mod's textures on the IMR meshes and keep the icicles from this mod.

Compatibility
The main mod file is not compatible with other mods that alter the meshes and textures for glaciers, ice floes, and icicles unless there is a patch available.

The Icy Mesh Remaster (IMR) Textures Only No Meshes optional file can be used to replace the textures for IMR. You do not need the main file for this option, but you do need to have IMR installed.

The Icicles Only option should overwrite any other mods you have that alter icicles.

Mod Image Information
The images included on this mod page were taken at various in-game times. Depending on the lighting the color and appearance of the glaciers will change. In more subdued lighting the transparency of the outer ice layer is more noticeable. In brighter lighting the reflections obscure the transparency of the ice a bit more so the glaciers look lighter. When the sun is at low angles like at dusk and dawn, the glaciers will have a translucent appearance like the sun is shining through them.

For these images I was using Community Shaders without a preset and Obsidian Weathers and Seasons.
