Enhanced Weather not activating

First, my load order:

[ ] Enhanced Weather - Radioactive Rain and Snow Plugin.esp

 

Secondly, whenever I use the item called Enhanced Weather Settings, the message at the top left says its been added. In fact, it keeps saying that whenever I select it. So there's the menu that allows me to control how long the rain/snow lasts as well as a few test options to make sure it works. I went with the test options and the weather instantly changes for a few minutes, complete with thunderclap. So I just leave the default times as they are, choose "Done", exit the Pipboy, and...a message at the top left instantly shows up and says the weather effects have worn off. And there's no rain! I changed the times by an hour or two and tried again. Still no change and still that message shows up! I tried going through the comments of the mod but they seem more annoyed by a perma-rad due to the radioactive rain plugin (which I don't have active). No one else seems to have this issue unless you have to wait a while.

 

So what the heck do I have to do. Uninstall/delete the whole mod somehow and reinstall?

 

PS: Does the mod index numbering matter?

Same problem, never had the weather actually working unless I used the test settings? Gave up and removed the mod.

Thanks for the suggestion, I checked my versions and they seem to be the latest.

 

Discovered my problem at least for me, I changed

 

<Set Rain Snow Min Duration> The default is 2 hours, changed it up to 6 hours as test.

<Set Rain Snow Max Duration> The default is 48 hours, kept at 48 hours as test.

 

<Set Not-Rainy Not-Snowy Weather Min Duration> in settings to a much lower number. The default was/is 4 hours, changed it down to 0 hour as test.

<Set Not-Rainy Not-Snowy Weather Max Duration> in settings to a much lower number. The default was/is 96 hours, changed it down to 1 hour as test. seemed to be the trigger!

 

Weather has kicked in now and is looking fantastic, will now adjust the setting a bit over time. In the middle of a severe storm at the moment hunting Super Mutants :thumbsup:

 

This has to be without a doubt the icing on the cake for Fallout 3, the field is so much more immersive with some awesome weather going on !
