    Am I the only one who plays this game that knows what real tundra is like?  Look it up in wikipedia. It exists in cold, cold country where trees don't grow  and often there is a layer of permafrost under the surface of the ground. Volcanic tundra is impossible.

      In Skyrim it isn't
      Same as fast travel, magic and dragons are impossible in our world, but pretty much standard in Skyrim.

      If you are looking for realism, go play outside.
      If you want to immerse yourself in a beautiful fantasy world, go play Skyrim.

      Cheers

      > Volcanic tundra is impossible

      Well it's in the game whether you like it or not.  You should write a stern letter to Bethesda!  And while you're at it, maybe you can demand they remove dragons, elves, magic, the entire cosmology (two moons?!), Daedric demons, gods, and everything else that doesn't line up with the real world.

      "Volcanic tundra is impossible."

      I guess Iceland is impossible, but I've still been there.

      This post gave me brain damage. It's giving "Weather cold, therefore geothermic activity impossible. Mod bad." when your entire criticism is invalid.

      Siberian Traps are also a tundra but where once volcanic.

      You almost got me there with "Am i the only one that knows what real tundra is like" until you told us to look it up in Wikipedia. This must be a joke.

      As you can see from the 3D map, the altitude of the volcanic area is lower than that of the whiterun tundra area, which already belongs to one area

      While the post OP made is uneccessary, especialy in relation to this mod, I must say that looking things up on Wikipedia is fine. Not anyone can read, understand or even find peer-reviewed papers on subjects outside their professional scope and in that case Wikipedia is fine.

      It's fine even if you're doing a research and using as an search engine for sicentific literature.

      Here are a few examples of references used in Wikipedia article about tundra:

      - "The Tundra Biome". The World's Biomes. University of California, Berkeley.
      - "Tundra Biome". National Geographic
      - "The tundra biome". University of California Museum of Paleontology.
      - Higuera, Philip E.; Chipman, Melissa L.; Barnes, Jennifer L.; Urban, Michael A.; et al. (December 2011). "Variability of tundra fire regimes in Arctic Alaska: millennial-scale patterns and ecological implications". Ecological Applications. 21 (8): 3211–3226.
      - Longton, R.E. (1988). Biology of Polar Bryophytes and Lichen. Studies in Polar Research. Cambridge University Press. 
      - Mack, Michelle C.; Bret-Harte, M. Syndonia; Hollingsworth, Teresa N.; Jandt, Randi R.; et al. (28 July 2011). "Carbon loss from an unprecedented Arctic tundra wildfire". Nature. 475 (7357): 489–492.

      Wikipedia is at it's worst about as acurate as anyother encyclopedia.

    this is still so good

    just let it overwrite all conflicts

    makes the foam at the base of a waterfall all hazy too like the waterdrops in the air are refracting light

    is it possible to add heat waves to the sea of ghosts, i really like this effect and want to see it used more often in larger areas.

      Isn't the sea of ghosts supposed to be really cold, though? That seems like an odd place to add a heat haze.

      the idea was to make the water look wavy under the water. the heat wave effect looks perfect for that idea, or maybe even the effect that's used for the time wound, that was also transparent and wavy looking.

    Is compatible with FYX - Water Splash? 
    I use FYX - Water Splash - Water for ENB - WEBaRF, must overwrite or no?

      • Q: Is this compatible with "XYZ"?
      • A: As long as a mod doesn't overwrite the same effect files as this, it'll be compatible with everything.

      I checked cross referenced the two mods and FYX - Water Splash and this mod both use the "fxsplashlargechurn.nif" file, so probably not. You could try letting this overwrite FYX - Water Splash, I only use this mod so I don't know. Worth a try.

    So you said this goes great with a mod that adds damage to the steam. What is a good mod that does that? I have never seen one that does that. Would like to check it out and try it with this mod. You have peaked my interest.

      There was an old mod that would do this, there's a new version "Fires Hurt NG" that does it with SKSE plugin instead of scripting. I'm not 100% sure it adds damage to the volcanic water but worth a shot.

    I wanted to try this, but it conflicts with two mods that will always get priority - Realistic Waters Two and Bright Waterfall Fix.

      There is no objective answer to that. If you're running on a 15 year old laptop, having 2 extra rabbits on the screen could cause performance impact for you, but nobody else.

      This simply adds the heatwave effect used in fires to the heat pools, so it's the same as having a fire on the screen.

      Try it, if it causes problems, remove it, easy! :)
