Best weather system ENB vs CoT?

[lorddonk]

Fellow Skyrim players, I really wanted to make a thread about what is the best ENB but I know a lot of that is up to preference. I see a lot of ENB mods on the Nexus but a lot of them I can't use because I use Climates of Tamriel and they say specifically that they are not compatible. So, I will just test a ton of them myself. However, apparently the new ENB has its own weathers to the point where I am wondering if Climates of Tamriel is really needed anymore especially with the fact that its not being developed anymore, while ENB is constantly being improved.

 

Just wondering what do most of you run on your files? Are the ENB weather effects similar to Climates of Tamriel? Are there all the same types of weather? Snow, Rain, Sunny, Overcast, Fog, etc. And are they still compatible with things like Frostfall or Lighting During Thunderstorms? Are there any real bugs with the weather system? Is there anywhere to see screenshot comparisons?

 

Thanks for your help.

ENB doesn't have its own weathers, it just manipulates the imagespace values to make weathers lighter/darker. CoT does that as well (which is why it's said to be not compatible with a lot of ENBs), but also adds new weather types.

ENB does not improve weather. It just introduces new shaders.

Anyone hear an echo? ENB has an enbweather.esp file that does what I mentioned above.

Oh I see! I didn't realize that ENB didn't also create new weathers. Guess its best to stick to CoT but I wish it was still being actively developed.
