Skyrim Se - Complete Weather mods comparison 

Thank you Tigersoul for this menu :-D

Nights are very important, especially if you don't use ENB without it you cannot modify the lightness or darkness

Hey Firemanaf! You've been spotted! Love your ENB you're awesome!

@@thirsty7281 Thank you. Appreciate it.

Yep i had to do them all!! and i was quite surprise to find out that ELFX weather it's not so bad, it has really some good situations, many mods are so underrated just cause they don't get the right spot

Haze is a mix of few weather mods, has as a base mine Scandinavian Seasons and other small touch from other mods it is a great mod but as many good mods luck of supports of Enbs

It is mentioned in the description of the Video, This comparison is made without ENBs, cause enbs alter the visual of weather lightning, mentioned Picturesque as a weather mod but it comes with its own ENB so it results very dark

Picturesque wont function without its companion ENB, it was built for and with that enb

yeah probably i didn't setting correctly! but you are right every mods have some goods and bads, and it's just a matter of taste, if you like something extreme or balance or you prefer something soft..

Picturesque is suppose to work with its enb, but as i mention before it was not fair to not include it ( you still can see meteos features of it ), well to be honest all weather mods come from same authors, at least the bases are from authors that have created weather mods for skyrim le and moved to skyrim se with open assets, it is good that we have variety more than the previous version and we can choose what fit our taste

well it's a comparison to make you choose the best based on own taste, of course i can't show more in 10minutes, so it's up to a balance of what you like or not more, also lightning storm can be tweaked in frequency of lightnings sheets or forks

If you want exactly that check out Storm Lightning. It's the best thing for rain and lightning hands down and has a lot of what you're looking for.

i havnt tried vivid yet . i like mythical ages , just kinda wish it was a little brighter n saturated on a clear sunny day

@@jasonh7554 I’ve switched to NAT now a days . But I kind of stopped playing Skyrim. I realize it’s a little boring for me now besides for the modding part. Lol

@@chrismayhem5447 haha ye i get that . i played it when it came out n again a couple years later. i havnt played it fr ten years . im modding it like crazy before i play it again lol. just tried nat . looks very bright n sharp . but it looks too bright in cloudy weather i feel . looking fr somthing inbetween mythical n nat now lol

@@jasonh7554 you can edit NAT with some display enhancements mod. Increase saturation and lower the brightness a little and it really is the best looking . Lmk if you have any questions. I consider myself a veteran Xbox modder at this point lol

@@chrismayhem5447 thanks man. was using mythical ages until it started raining n was getting frame drops. the stuttering was annoying . i use obsidian now . the performance is great on my series s. even in heavy rain. n the rain looks exactly the same... :S lol

@CEO of Unpopular Opinions Yeah, I'm shocked. Some of them make it SO DARK. Or just a dark strip on horizon (the sunrises looked really badly). The best seems to be NAT, but yeah, vanilla is totally in top 3. Which is actually sad.

That’s why wander is my favourite because it is just an enhanced vanilla. Plus it has the most balanced nights.

This video feels decieving. To be honest Obsidian and Aqeuinoctium and NAT... Even Elfx and Dolomite look far better than this. I've tried them all. No ENB. In Vanilla withouth ENB everything is green/pale during the day and blue/grey and barely dark at all. To each their own, ofc. Edit: Not decieving on purpose, I just don't think it really shows their true nature. Video is great. But try before you discard.

@@DaFunkz I tried Wander but I hate how it looks too saturated. It can go from a sunny and saturated look, to a dark and gloomy fog in a matter of seconds. The color switching back and forth is too obvious, almost distracting.

Somehow I have to agree with you.

Mythical is really beautiful. I'm moving to Scandinavian though.

Yes they are all clear skies ( there are currently 7 types on vanilla and all are different ) the amount of clouds depends on which one of this 7 is and also change the color of the sky for all 7 clear type, some weather mods have a complete clear skies with no clouds at all but it is 1 on 7, i did this comparison randomly so one can be a clear-pineforest another one clear-marsh, there are also few weather mods with a consistante amount of clouds also in clear situation, i think aequinotium is one of this and also dolomite, anyway the sky color is easy to correct with ENB

i didn't get which scene you are mention about the fog and what you would like to tweak...but i Agree to the fact that all weathers mod have some good things and of course something that can be off, i think it's just a matter of taste, many goes crazy for Cathedral but for me it uses too much blue, other prefer obsidian, but for me obsidian nights are not so realistic, but it's my own taste maybe people like it as you prefer aequinoctium

@@L3st4tSkyrimMods Acquenoctium as far as I can see almost completely disables distant fog, which takes away from the atmosphere would be great to have it back

Kyne s weather is a mix o multiple weather's of this compilation, I am not considering it as a weather mod but an attempt to make work 3/4 weather mods together and when it came out it was also broken cause the season feature was not working properly and when I point this out to author he simply answer me he was not interesting in making it work....., is offering something that is not and it is not a personal work but a batch of others works made badly, so no reason to mention it

@@L3st4tSkyrimMods Well I've been using it for a few years now and it's actually great. I haven't had anything broke whatsoever. It is the first weather mod that I have run that looks great without an ENB. The combo of the different weathers seems to produce a really balanced feel for realism with a touch of fantasy. I haven't found anything that would make me not use it.

@@ZephrusPrime i have not doubt in that, basicly you are using obsidian weathers that is well build and you will not see anything broken because you don't know how it works, Obsidian has a script for the season ( like all weather mods with season ), this allow to the mods to show a particolar meteo during a period ( lets say summer more clear sunny weather, autumn more rain and so on ), there are other things, but this would take long to explain! While Obsidian cover Vanilla perfectly, the other meteos that kynes add are not vanilla but were part of other mods that covered vanilla, they are not part of the script so they will work as a Vanilla based on Skyrim Engine overwriting the season script ( so breaking the season ) or they even will not work anyway ( so you will play with Obsidian ) or they will show a meteo situation that will result odd during the season (like snow during summer or suddently snow then sun ), this is the main reason a point, for example my Scandinavian Seasons has also different weathers from Vanilla but they are part of the season script so they will work as intended ( i have lightning storm that will happen only in summer for example, rain with cloudy/sunny happening mostly in spring and early summer ) this is the correct way to make them work, i am sure Kynes author has good intention to do it and sure he has some good mods done but not this weather batch mod.

It is a matter of taste, no winner or loser all goods weather mods with different way to do things😉

Mythical Ages

Obsidian

vanilla / wander

Yes.

Comparation is without enb preset, picturesque works only with enb this how author wanted to look, as for Saga with strong vivid colors was a way to push enb authors to do something different, as i always say, it is just a matter of taste, so i don't think some weathers looks bad or good, they offer different things and some are strong in some situation more than others

i would say Scandinavian Seasons, but wait for the update

@@L3st4tSkyrimMods when is that?

@@kingfurbs6277 hopefully soon, i've been changing pc and apartment and still in the mess

@@L3st4tSkyrimMods Is Scandinavian Seasons still available on xbox?

3d trees with my Et3D and also bubblode expansions

Scandinavians, mythical and rustic... Rustic snowstorms are tooo intense though.

Hate the stormy weather lighting with cathedral

Video is not about sound! 😂

I don't think is bad, it is build to work with its specific enb, reason it results so dark without it, i know it was not a good idea to show it like this, but i wanted a fair comparison with all weather mods

it's a video comparison about weather mods, not Master Audio showcase!
