Dynamic Weather Overhaul - Complete

Important Notice: Dynamic Weather Overhaul is a complete package. The addons listed below are now standalone mods that require the Main Module to function.

MAIN Module:
Weather System Rework: Expanded range of weather events, each with unique durations and transitions.
Regional Weather Diversity: Distinct weather patterns for different regions.
Immersive Atmospherics: Heightened intense weather activity in unstable areas to increase environmental immersion.
Restored Weather Events: Restoration of Light Rainy, Foggy and Thundery, featuring refined skyboxes and cloud formations. From 4 base weathers to 8.
Unpredictable Emissions: Time between Emission events now have varying lengths and can start sooner or later than in vanilla.
Immersive Emissions Overhaul: Vanilla Friendly Emissions now feature dramatic and realistic coloring, tone and intensity, beautiful clouds and smoother pronounced transitions.
Base Weathers Overhaul: Clear, Cloudy, Rain and Storm get an overhaul.
Overwhelming Emission Vortex: The Emission Vortex now looks more menacing and intense, being much bigger and close to the ground, with a much more dense and heavy feeling to it.
Improved Weather VFXs and Particles: Lightning now lights and covers more area, making thundery weathers feel more lively, windy weathers pick up dust and debris, and more variety in weather VFXs.

Version 2.5 New Features:

Dynamic Weather System Overhaul: Weather changes are no longer predictable. The new chance-based system allows for multiple paths for how the weather can evolve. A clear day might slowly build into a storm or rapidly devolve into a downpour.New Weather States & Flow: The weather spectrum is now more detailed. "Cloudy" has been reworked into a lighter "Partly Cloudy" state, while the old "Stormy" is now a gloomy, windy "Overcast" weather, creating a more natural progression to severe conditions.Anomalous Storms: The intense storm previously seen only before an Emission can now occur naturally as a rare and dangerous weather event.Enhanced Night Skies: Moon textures have been fixed, and night skies are now clearer and more detailed, filled with stars.Bug Fix - Weather VFX Transitions: Fixed a vanilla bug where rain and other particle effects would instantly disappear when transitioning to a clear weather type. VFX now fade out smoothly and naturally.

Addons:
Realistic Sun Path: Matches real-world sun trajectory during the late summer.

These experimental addons are now available as separate workshop items:

Classic Blowout Reborn (WIP): A terrifying reimagining of emissions inspired by the original trilogy. Survive three waves of increasing intensity, with custom VFX and mechanics.

Alternative Eye Exposure (WIP): Re-balances eye adaptation to reduce overwhelming brightness from windows and prevent white-out skies, while enhancing interior mood and atmosphere.

This mod conflicts with any mods that alter the following .cfg files located in your Paks directory:

Stalker2\Content\GameLite\GameData WeatherChainPrototypes.cfg WeatherSelectionPrototypes.cfg

It also modifies Unreal Engine Assets located in

Stalker2\Content\light\Curves Stalker2/Content/_Stalker_2/VFX/Environment/Rain/Niagara/NS_Rain_Weather.uasset Stalker2/Content/_Stalker_2/VFX/Environment/Generators/NS_Generators_Ligtnings_Core_2.uasset

These are UE assets which are compiled and repackaged, and cannot be easily modified or merged with any other Weather Mods (If any other come out in the future)
The mod really benefits from Real Longer Days[www.nexusmods.com] for added immersion.
I recommend using Optimax[www.nexusmods.com] or Ultra Plus[www.nexusmods.com]  for enhanced weather and lighting effects. These have fixes for lighting which accompany this mod.

[/url]How to help:Best way to support my mods is to provide feedback in the comments. I will always try to be approachable and comment on any feedback/requests.
If you would like to help out in development, you can clone my Git Repository.[github.com] You can send me a PM if you require help setting up.
You can always donate to me via Nexus or Ko-FI[ko-fi.com]. But I rather you keep your money or donate it to a charity of your choosing on my name. All money I make from modding, I will anyways donate to my local Ukrainian Refugees support group[www.wolja-stuttgart.de].
