Re: Skyrim particle patch for ENB

With this mod installed I crash trying to enter DragonsReach. Even "coc WhiterunDragonsreach" from the main menu crashed every time with this mod installed.
It's actually just one file fxambbeamxbdustbig02.nif which I was able to narrow down to by trial and error (and rule of halves) in Skyrim_Particle_Patch_for_ENB--All-In-One\meshes\effects\ambient. So if you disable or remove that one file the mod seems to work otherwise.

Re: Skyrim particle patch for ENB

Thanks, will test. You are using the LE patch with LE, right? Seems odd since there haven't been updates to those meshes for a long time but it might be a some sort of mod conflict.

Which weather is that, the ash storm perhaps? To be honest that looks just buggy.

Cathedral weathers. VolcanicAsh01_A, VolcanicAsh02_A, and VolcanicAshTundra01_A

all three of those weathers have a light ash fall going on... but they are look like the white triangles

Interesting. I just tested and looks normal to me, i.e. floating pieces of ripped toilet paper. Maybe a bug in one of the mods you're using?

The texture should be DLC02\Effects\FXAshSoft01.dds.

Re: Skyrim particle patch for ENB

Is there also a mesh involved?

Not sure, it seems to use the same kind of shader particle geometry as the rain.

It actually looks like it's a feature of Cathedral Weathers since the vanilla game apparently doesn't use the effect for those weathers.

Yes, must be mesh or CW doing it. The texture is vanilla/SSE cleaned.

edit: it turns out it was assigned the texture aniso.dds DLC02VolcanicAshParticles01 to certain ash weathers. this apparently was an unused vanilla effect... I guess it was never finished.

On a note so related note, is your snow effects mod still a WIP and not publicly released?

I tried it out and in looks great, but the transparency of the flakes seems to vary when I'm looking around.

Hey, @mindflux. I finally got around to installing the latest PP. I am getting this result in Dragonsreach, whereas it wasn't a problem with the previous version that I installed. [spoiler]Image[/spoiler] Thanks.

Re: Skyrim particle patch for ENB

Thanks for the report. I assume that your particle intensity is set in such a way that otherwise everything looks fine and balanced?
