Hey, do we need the visualsettings.dat for this to work, is it safe to delete it?
You would need to edit the visualsettings.dat and set the weathercycle.duration (or something similar) from 120 to 60. i know it sound counterintuitive but thats what you need to change. The most important file is the WeatherClimates.xml
This is by far the best weather mod. Crucial for atmosphere and it works as promised!
