Changelogs
This mod was created by CAPA here is link to original I just updated it to nextgen version and make sure it doesn't modify any vanilla game scripts and ported this over to modBootstrap

Be-aware to use this mod you need Bootstrap NEXT-GEN without it this will not work and read the instructions below and install it properly before reporting any error

What it does?

Enables Ice Breath FX to Geralt, Roach and NPCs( Men, Women, Children) into three options: Cold Places, Cold Weather, or anywhere (Forced).
This mod also come with an improvement snow particles for some Skellige Weathers.

How it works?

Now with v2 you have some options using the menu!
MENU > OPTIONS > MODS > ICE BREATH SETTINGS

Cold Places: Enables the effect to whatever weather when you are at: 
  • Skelliger
  • Island of Myst
  • White Orchard (Winter)
  • Kaer Morhen
(If you don't set anything to the menu or choose to not have it, "Cold Places" will be the default behaviour)

Cold Weather: Enables the effect based on the current Weather does not matter the Map you are. You will get the breath FX only during foggy, snowy or blizzard. Additionally, the mod is compatible with these mods (thanks to ElementaryLewis for helping with these):


Forced: It will enable the effect no matter where you are.

Disabled: Will never enable the effect

The script checks the conditions of area, weather and settings from 5 to 5 seconds.(no hotkeys needed)
So when you choose something from the menu it will have effect after 5 seconds.

Installation:
  • Download and install Bootstrap, both the Registry and the Next Gen main files! [IMPORTANT]
  • Download this mod and install with Witcher 3 Mod Manager. Or extract all the files in witcher 3 directory where the Bin and DLC folder is located
  • Now use Script Merger Fresh Automated Edition and merge all scripts. You will get merged conflict like the picture. Always choose A then B!
  • 
  • Final step. Use Menu Filelist Updater
  • Done. Enjoy the game

Know issue:
- If you choose to disable the effect in cutscenes or dialogues (via the menu) the effect will stop 5 to 10 seconds into the dialogue or cutscene.
- Dead bodies still breath. This is due to Next Gen version where it force NPC face to load the best LOD. It's implement in the engine so cannot be fix.
- Dwarfs and Halflings cannot get the ice breath. I tried to add them but they don't get anything.

Credits:
this mod was created by CAPA and converted to game version 4.04 and modBootstrap by me. I uploaded this on nexus with his permission. and thanks to Aeltoth for introducing me to the vanilla functions for cutscene or dialogue checking.

Compatibility:
if you want to update this mod for lighting mods(if they are compatible with nextgen version of the game) ask me in the comment section or open an issue on bugs section I'll try to update
