To properly determine if your issue is RWT related:
1) Load the game with nothing but the vanilla plugins, unofficial patch, and RWT.
2) COC into the game (don't load a save because that could be the issue too) and travel to the problem area.
3) Check to see if the issue remains.
This is exactly how we test reported issues. If the issue is resolved, it's a problem on your end. DO NOT post a bug report, you'll be wasting everyone's time! If you require help for these issues, inquire in the POSTS section.
CLEANING
Do not run the meshes through NIF Optimizer! Doing so will break them.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Check the ARTICLES tab for answers to frequently asked questions. The is also an article discussing some conflict resolution tips for your patches.
Very observant community members may have noticed a small change on the page; my name being switched out with Isoku's under the "Uploaded by" field. Essentially, RWT has been transferred to my Nexus account. With Isoku more or less in retirement, Captain Cockerel and myself have maintained RWT for several years and will continue to do so. In the event that we wish retire, the mod will be transferred to Step Modifications' Stewardship Service. Essentially, this change puts in place some contingencies to ensure RWT's continued relevance to the community into the future, regardless of author status.
Next, I'd like to ask all authors who have RWT listed as a requirement within their Nexus page settings to review these requirements.
I have visited the majority of the pages. There are several that have RWT listed as a requirement, but do not actually require RWT; presumably due to updates over time. There are also quite a few outdated mods that no long function. For these mods, I would request that you either update or hide/delete them, as they can be confusing for users. It would be nice to have this list cleaned up a bit on our page. Thank you, to those of you do this!
Lastly, I have updated the permissions for RWT to be more clear.
Mods that utilize RWT assets (which still requires written permission), provide alternative water colors/gradients, and/or provide patches for other mods are allowed to use any of the Nexus-provided methods to earn monetary value from these derivative works. So please feel free to opt-in to DP and add donation options to these mod pages.
Any monetary value earned from non-Nexus methods (Creations, Patreon, Discord, etc.) are still prohibited.
Starting with version 5.7 and going forward, Realistic Water Two is compatible with the latest version of Skyrim SE. At the time of this post that is game version 1.6.1130.
The reasoning behind this is that RWT is developed on the latest version of the game. In game version 1.6.1130, Bethesda updated the plugin header from v1.70 to v1.71. This expanded the address range for records and some other changes. Thus, going forward RWT's plugins will have header v1.71, which is automatically attached by development tools.
Running a new header version on an older game version that doesn't support it could lead to unknown issues, including CTDs. Older versions of RWT are still available for use on the Files tab and via Archives, for those that aren't running the latest game version.

are creeks supposed to have these bright cyan spots? the only conflict RWT has is with SMIM and i also run community shaders, disabling either of those did nothing
EDIT: i made somes tests, ''Rudy ENB SE for Cathedral Weathers'' seems to be the source of these teal color. Not RWT
But so are Alternate Perspective - Alternate Start, XPMSE has to go after ALL the animations, i like to have my patches after ALL the mods, so im certain some patch isnt higher then the required mod accidently. But LOOT puts RealisticWaterTwo.esp at almoust bottom.
I can fix it manually, but i need LOOT help too, sometimes when i install 10-20 new mods, its hard to keep track of everything, so its better to let LOOT sort it and then manually adjust if somethings wrong.
Is it really this important that its coded for LOOT to put it this low or is this a mistake? Cos usually envoirenment mods go in middle or top of load order (right after ESMs). For example, the same LOOT that puts water on BOTTOM, puts Immersive Sounds Compendium, True Storms, Skyrim Bridges and Skyrim Better Roads on TOP of load order.
Thanks for explaining, i will note this. Landscape records is the reason and some important landscape mods need to be on bottom.
I will try to expand my knowledge on load order sorting. And i would like to learn xEdit and make patches as you say. But im having lots of trouble to get many mods to work together as it is. Ive managed to go up to 240 mods in past year, i started out with 40 max, after that my game broke:P. But to learn all that - its a LOT of work. Many days its 6-12 hours of modding. Im afraid that xEdit will be too hard for me, at least at this point of my "education":)
If you want, you i can tell you why i was confused, im sorry i cannot explain this shorter. If not you can stop reading here.
On youtube guide a girl with 1500 mods said that i should look at load order as a cake. First level of the cake is the foundation, middle is the body of the cake and some decorations, fruits and candles on top, after everything else is finished.
So i load order its upside down, foundation is top, because top of load order loads first. So i thought that first game loads engine and standart scripts, then landscapes, then buildings and bodies of pc and npcs and then clothes, weapons, dialogues, flowers, trees, air, bridges, buildings and stuff that is on the landscape and on the bodies kindof. So i understand that lighting cannot exist without landscape and objects, thats why its on bottom.
But im guessing that this picture might not be as good way to imagine how to sort mods. And its more about mods that do similiar things overwrite each other in one way or another.
Thats why i was confused that landscape mod needs to be so low.
GKB Waves Reborn can be compatible, but you'll want to disable the RWT waves in the MCM.
If you haven't experienced the features in RWT before adding these extra mods, I would encourage you to do so. RWT wave are completely redone from vanilla, 3D, and more realistic than the flatter waves from GKB. GKB does fit the shoreline almost perfectly, though.
Furthermore, if I understood correctly the main differences between RWT and WfENB is that your mod is made to work with ENB but it is not required while WfENB requires ENB. Your mod stops the flow of water in ponds and static bodies of water while WfENB doesn't. You recommend to disable sky reflections while WfENB sets distant reflection on true (to disable) in all his presets, so basically the same. Am I missing something?
Cathedral - Water Overhaul and Bug fixes fixed that problem. Does RWT fixe it?
Yes, the waves are meshes.

Yes, but wfENB will still work without ENB...you just won't have the same look or fancy effects.

There are a lot of differences between RWT and WfENB besides these. The majority of the features listed on the description WfENB doesn't have.
Cathedral - Water Overhaul and Bug fixes fixed that problem. Does RWT fixe it?
Which problem? Distance reflections? No, it doesn't. The problem with Distant Reflections is that it will sometimes pick up the skycolor too much. This causes the water to basically be a bright color of the sky and washes out the water vs looking like water reflections. This can be fixed or minimized within ENB presets, however, most ENB authors don't address this issue. Hence our recommendation to just turn it off.
If I install a mod with the Alternative Volcanic Water Color option, the game does not start
If I disable this option, everything works fine, what is the problem and how to fix it?
NVM think i foud it. 'exotic water colors mod'
TL;DR - This mod currently doesn't touch cell (-6,22), Tamriel worldspace, which is usually fine because the resulting water seam is hidden by an ice model, but certain ice mods alter that model in a way that reveals the seam.
upd: I found what was causing the fps drop, but only partially. The grass mod I used created a lot of pebbles under and near the water. I removed the pebbles but the frames still disappear, although not as much.
