Scandinavian Seasons is a complete weather mod that recreate the typical Scandinavian weather
along the classic vanilla weathers (all revisited) many other custom weathers have been created to fit into the seasonal feature
this means more variety and unique weather situations for every season
for example a lightning storm it's a rare weather that will appear only in summer, Aurora will appear mostly during spring and autumn evening ...

Please check the new release here Scandinavian Seasons Extended

All screenshoots you see in the picture bar are without Enb

Features:
- Season ( season system will follow the internal calendar of Skyrim every season, will be different from another winter,spring,summer,autumn)
- Custom weathers ( new weather situations that will appear randomly and unique during the seasons )
- Different custom Sunset/sunrises ( every weather clear or cloudy has a different sunset and sunrise many of this are realistic pics location from Finland )
- Different reflection color during sunrises and sunsets on ground
- Custom and unique Sounds ( a new variety of sounds for storms, thunder and wind )
- Custom Realistic Clouds to create a realistic sky with northern clouds
- Volumetric mist ( different types of volumetric mist soft and heavy depending of the weather situation, will also cover and fix partially the cut of the horizon in       some situation )
- Distant Rain ( and effect that will  reproduce the idea of rain in distance )
- Daylights ( some days have a more strong light than others and you can tell the difference moving form a dark spot to a light one, this gives the idea of a     warm   sunny day)
- Nights are dark and navigable, it would be possible to move during night time and have a complete visual of what around 
- Fog has been completly value redone and now is strong and thick but still will leave a good visual of the scenary
- Colors in general are not so strong, a bit more washed but realistic ( this should be easy for modders to create ENBS and have a balance saturation level )
- Snowflakes textures  from Cathedral Weathers
- Smooth Sky mesh - SSE from --JawZ--.

Optional Files:
- Optional Esp for complete integration of True Storm Sse (need TS as a master)

INSTALLATION Scandinavian Seasons:

- Use the manager to disintallation

Optional FILE ESP:

- install fisrt the Scandinavian Season file and then the optional Esp  using your manager and overwrite when  asked 

Optional Sunglare:

- Install it using your modmanager

Scandinavian Enbs:

- Download manually the archive 
- open it
- choose one of the version Realistic or Vivid
- open the flder and copy the content into the Skyrim game folder  Directory
- go to Enbdev and download the latest enb binary for Skyrim se 
- open the archive and in the wrapped folder take the d3d11.ddl and the d3dcompiler_46e.dll and 
  put them in your skyrim game folder directory

P.S.: this Enb is very simple and it's a starting point for using this mod with Enb, at the moment does not support multiple weathers this means that level of darkness is the same of every meteo situation and some nights would look brighter than others 



I Use ELFX in combination with ELE, this would probably have a different effect on interiors if you don't use them, you can adjust easy the darkness of interiors and nights with the Enb Gui Menu 




COMPATIBLE AND SUGGESTED MOD:

- True Storm ( compatible with alternative Esp )
- Storm Lightning for SSE by ShiZof 
- Lightning during Storm ( if requested i can provide an alternative esp to work )
- Realistic Northern Clouds 
- Etheral clouds
- Obsidian montain fog

i didn't test the mod with other mod clouds but i don't think it will be a problem

Feel free to ADD your screenshoots

NOT COMPATIBLE:

- with any other weather mod without any patch
- with mods that will alter the sky vault or lightning external mods ( not tested but i assume it will not work well)

NOTE FOR ENB AUTHORS:

the Skyvault of this mod is pretty sensible to colors cause of the sunrise/sunset textures, be sure not to alter much the sky color and also the sun
i would suggest also to work on the clouds colors and not to alter the fogs values, you can use my ENBs as a base to start
