Rain Extinguishes Fires Another day, another REF update. I made an NG DLL to handle pre-1130 versions (yay), and will be working on a few optimizations for the next update (bringing the DLL size down because too many dependencies I do not need are included). Additionally, I will be making some backend cleanup and optimizations.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Spoiler:
Show
1. Is this compatible with texture and mesh replacers?
1.5. What about mods that replace fires with entirely new forms? Or mods that add their own new fire forms?
2. Is this compatible with mods that add more fires, or remove them?
3. Is this compatible with weather mods?
4. Is this compatible with my survival mode mod or Fires Hurt?
5. Does this mod feature occlusion (If the rain is blocked, does the fire get put out)?
I just realized that a patch is needed for users of KD - Realistic Fireplaces, but the good news is that it will provide a consistent mesh for the fire on and fire off models.
Installed and started a new game. whiterun brazziers had flames at night. After a rain there's no flames but still got light around them. Tried to light it up with Flames spell, didn't work. Running 1.6.1170 with mod v5 last beta, embers xd and dyndolod.
I'm having a problem with Embers XD causing the fires in front of Candlehearth Inn and the one added by the mod in front of Palace of the Kings not extinguishing. Does this need a patch?
Used to work really well for me, but both v4 and v5 just remove the embers from braziers and leave an empty brazier that gives off light and smoke. Could be a me problem idk, on 1170 using embers XD.
On 1.5.97, can't get this to work no matter what I do. Top of LO, bottom, doesn't matter. Installed the 5.0.0.beta-9.rc-1 update from github which fixed the "main.cpp(36): Fatal: RainExtinguishesFires.esp is not active" error, the game loads now, but the mod just doesn't seem to be working.
I'm building off the Ascensio modlist, which comes with LUX and EmbersXD as the lighting mods, so shouldn't be any compatibility issues, but I tried running the mod with all other lightning mods disabled on a new game just to be safe, still didn't work.
Having a problem with the fomod for the new V5. Choosing the option to get the sources it says: "The following files or folders were not found in the archive... Folder '06. Sources'. The folder name in the archive is '03. Sources'. Also, those sources probably don't need the .ppj, workspace, or .vscode files.
Can we please have an update to fix this mod? It is essential to immersion but it's devasting that it causes me to crash almost every time I exit or enter a new location.
I can't provide one at the moment. I'm in the military and currently deployed with no access to my PC. However, I can state that similar to what others who have posted on the bugs tab, entering or exiting to skyrim causes my game to crash. From the crash logs that I do remember, it always mentions this mod right before any crashing.
I hope the new update addresses this. The ver. 4.0.2. Is the one I used. Cheers.

Why not just use Embers XD
Tried to light it up with Flames spell, didn't work.

Unfortunately, the rain portion works but not the spells. I try hitting the fires directly.

Posting my current LO in case it helps, ignore the bits at the end, am in the process of patching some city overhauls and haven't sorted them yet.
I'm really hoping I'm just an idiot and am missing something obvious, lol.
Cheers!

And thank you, hoping to make it back safely so I can play. C:
