I have always been fond of Voltage by SRW0, an incredible retexture of the vanilla spell visual effects for shock spells and enchantments, as well as weather lightning effects. However, the mod uses its own blue color that, while visually appealing, leads to a few subjective issues:

  • The blue coloring does not cover certain effects, leading to an odd mix of blue and purple VFX graphics that can look out of place in some situations.
  • When using certain ENB mods, like ENB Light, the color change is not registered, and lighting for these spells will still be purple rather than blue.
  • The look is inconsistent with the purple lightning graphics in the spell list UI and other canon depictions of shock spells.

Because of this, I have manually adjusted each separate effect texture from Voltage to a vibrant, visually pleasing purple. I have also included HD cleaned and upscaled versions of the vanilla lightning gradients from Glorious Gradients by Akira1364. Recolored spell impact decals for shock spells are included as well. All textures are a maximum of 2048p for balanced visuals and performance, and have been properly compressed and mipmapped.

INSTALLATION
Install with your preferred mod manager.

COMPATIBILITY
This mod has no plugin, and will only conflict with mods that modify the same textures. If two textures conflict, the one lower down in your mod order will "win", and those textures will be displayed in-game.

Thank you and enjoy!
