Mod Features Description:
This mod is an improvement base on “Wet and Cold” ‘s cold region visual effect features that applied to player and NPC (cold breath, NPC wear cold clothing, etc.).
Compare to “Wet and Cold”, CRB has a more precise and higher compatibility way to detect cold region (by detect the snowy chance of this area), which can fully compatible with any new lands expansion mod (beyond skyrim, beyond reach, etc.) ‘s exterior areas.
The whole mod functions are creating under the frameworks of “Spell Perk Item Distributor”. As a result, the mod has lighter scripts, faster operating speed and less performance burden.
1. Main features:
a) Cold Breath:
All mortal characters (humanoid character but exclude vampire, Daedra ,undead and ghost) will have cold breathing visual effect in cold
region:
- They will have indistinct breathing effect squirt out from their nose during all the time.
- indistinct breathing effect will squirt out from mouth when character doing action (talking, running, fighting, etc.)
- Obvious strong breathing effect will squirt out from mouth during cold time (snowing or after 8.30 pm).
14 type of Creatures below will have unique cold breath effect playing on them:
Horse, Canine, Giant, Bear, SabreCat, Falmer, WereBeast, Troll, Dragon, Cow, Hagraven, Boar, Riek, lurker.
b) Cold Clothing:
Non-player Mortal characters but exclude beggars or prisoners will equip cold clothing (hood, gloves, cloak, mask) automatically when
they are in cold region. The amount of the cold clothing NPC would wear depends on his race (Is he Nord?) and coldness of current
weather.
Player can purchase cold clothing in store. All cold clothing added in this mod is fully compatible with FrostFall.
Different with "Wet and Cold", all NPC will now have a fixed set of cold clothing to wear, you won't meet the issue that character wear a
hood in different color every time you reload the cell.
c) Frozen Effect (visual effect only):
All mortal characters will have their body freezing after swimming in cold region.
d) Shiver Animation (required DAR):
All mortal characters will play shiver idle animation because of cold after swimming in cold region.
Beggars and Prisoners characters will shiver at night (after 8:30 PM) or during snowy weather. (This feature requires supporting from DAR)
All features above are only visual effect features, they have nothing to do with the gameplay!
All features above can be toggled on / off in MCM page.

2. Extra features:
a) Light Scripts and Little Performance Burden:
The whole mod functions are building under the frameworks of “Spell Perk Item Distributor”.
S.P.I.D allow we attach the cold effect spell to every NPC at the beginning of the game.
Therefore, we don't need to use a cloak spell to continuously scan every NPC in the area and attach cold effect spell to them one by one
(which has cost a lot of performance).
As a result, CRB has lighter scripts, faster operating speed and less performance burden compare to the old method "wet and cold" is used.
b) High Compatibility with Other Mods:
- Fully compatible with any new lands expansion mods exterior area(without any patch requried!).
- Highly compatible with weather and climate overhaul mods.
- Highly compatible with mods that have similar features( R.A.S.S, Wet and Cold, Frostfall).
c) Extreme Easy to Create Compatibility Patch for CRB:
CRB has include a compatibility patch framework which working like Spell Perk Item Distributor and DAR’s way: You can build a compatibility patch for CRB by just writing somethings in a TXT file.
