Modder ‘EloiMods’ has released a very cool new mod for Starfield that aims to overhaul its weather system. This mod will allow you to enjoy Starfield under new and improved weather conditions. As such, it’s a must-have for those who want to improve the game’s overall immersion.

Going into more details, the mod adds lots of new weather types with fresh cloud designs. It also improves the look and sound of rain, lightning, and snow. On top of that, it gives many areas more weather variety, while still keeping the game’s original style.

The mod adds a variety of new cloud types: six partly cloudy, six cloudy, one overcast, and one rain formation. The partly cloudy and cloudy types even include different weather variations. Many of the new weather conditions also feature special versions for big cities and towns, each with its own lighting and atmosphere. All the original weather patterns remain in the game, but now there’s much more variety to enjoy.

And that’s not all. The mod also slows down the day-night cycle to 60% of the normal speed. This means sunrises and sunsets last longer, and the change from day to night feels smoother. It also changes how long weather can last, so weather will shift more often compared to the original game.

You can download the mod from this link. At the end of the article, you’ll also find a video comparing the vanilla rain, thunderstorms, and snow with the new modded versions.

Speaking of Starfield, you may also want to try the following mods for it. For instance, we have a mod that adds cool quests when you explore new places. Another cool mod is this one, which adds a Roguelike Permadeath Mode to the game. There’s also a mod that makes dead bodies move realistically, as well as a mod that aims to overhaul the game’s enemy AI. In September 2023, we shared the Disk Cache Enabler Mod, which helps reduce how much space the game uses on your computer.

There’s also a mod that gives characters super realistic eyes. Halo fans can use this mod to play as the Master Chief himself. Crysis fans might find this mod cool, as it improves the game’s particle effects. In April, we also shared a DLC-sized expansion mod that allows you to create whole colonies with giant mechs, defense turrets, a farming system, and more. Oh, and if you don’t like the default camera views in dialogue, there’s a mod to disable them.

Sprinting Stuttering Fix is another cool mod that stops the annoying stutters when you run. Then, you can grab this mod that makes the game run smoother by fixing a bunch of scripts. Plus, I highly recommend using the Seamless City Interiors Mod. You can also get StarFinance, which brings an advanced financial system. And don’t forget these two must-have mods that make the game look and feel better with a new User Interface and cooler Particle Effects. On the other hand, this mod lets you travel between planets in real-time. We also have this mod, which adds 50 new space encounters to the game. And let’s not forget this Fleet Expansion Mod. Finally, this mod brings a dynamic weather system into the game, and this mod improves the behavior of NPCs.

Lastly, here are all the best Starfield mods you can download.

Have fun!
