Raid Weathers is still my favorite weather mod today. It is simple and yet very intense. I did find some ENBs that fit the aesthetic of Raid Weathers well - as well as some that I thought completely changed the intended look of the weather mod. I started using Weather is Sacred ENB for its intentional lack of changing colors, the use of bloom, and no post processing adjustments in the ENB. There were a few things I wanted to change in this ENB; but, it was a great ENB for keeping Raid Weathers' colors and weathers in its original design. This made me attempt to make my own ENB.


Lets start with this: Raid Weathers is not a requirement. This ENB can be used with all weathers and lighting mods. Some weather mods require a specific ENB to look correct, in which case Basic ENB is not for that weather. You will see the mods as they were originally designed to look like just with some shadow and light enhancements.


I figured I would download all the ENB binary stuff and tweak it close to how I liked it.
- No color changes
- No bloom 
- No pre/post pass
- No Weather requirements (should work with any weather mod)

This ENB enables:
- Complex Parallax including Terrain Parallax
- Complex Grass with Collisions 
- Complex Material 
- Water and Underwater
- Volumetric and Sun Rays
- Complex Particles
- Cloud and Detailed Shadows

I tweaked some Particle Settings to make smoke "realistic" in certain lighting. Skylighting was also adjusted to deepen certain shadows at certain times. Other than that nearly every setting has been kept at the "Default" setting as it came from ENB Series website.


REQUIREMENT:

Obviously ENB Series is required. All you need is the d3d11.dll and d3dcompiler_46e.dll  placed directly into your Skyrim Special Edition folder - not data folder.

SUGGESTIONS:

- I run Raid Weathers with the Raid Weathers asset plugin from Kulharin. 
- I use Twilight by Doodlezoid
- For effects on your character, I suggest R.A.S.S. with ToosTruss Improvements.
- I recommend some type of complex terrain parallax texture mod. (The Omnibus, Skyrim 202X, Skyland Parallax)
- Use any parallax texture mods you want. As long as you get the parallax meshes "it just works." 
- Also, I suggest Auto Parallax as it will help in avoiding issues with not having parallax textures/meshes.
- I use Lux and Lux Orbis; however, this ENB does not require any lighting mod. It just uses what you got!

I am sure I could say some more about this ENB but . . . 

Outside of that you can use whatever you want. Whatever mods you use will not get any substantial change, they will probably get enhanced if anything.
This is my first ENB I made by myself and not tweaking someone else ENB. Uploaded here for people looking for a simple yet effective ENB.
