PLEASE READ ME! Please check below to see if your issue is noted here before posting a comment.
Topic 1: "How do I stop rain and snow from clipping through shelters, roofs, etc?" Please use this mod. Note that the author hasn't implemented support for my tents yet; he has a Work In Progress version of that here. Please check that mod's change log for the latest information.
Topic 2: "In my Papyrus log, I see a bunch of errors that start with _Frost_! Is that from Frostfall? Is that bad? Yes, they are from Frostfall. They are, 9 times out of 10, harmless.
Topic 3: Will you make a version compatible with Tropical Skyrim? / Will you add different racial bonuses and penalties? No. Please see my FAQ page.
Topic 4: Is this compatible with the Winter Edition of Climates of Tamriel? A future version of Frostfall 3 will be more deeply compatible with the Winter Edition. Please look forward to that.
Topic 5: I am unhappy with the fundamental concepts behind how the Exposure system works (the point scale, the way points are lost, so on). Can you change it? / I am unhappy with any or all of the 3 different ways this mod can be activated. Can you change it?

This means that you should expect new versions of this mod to be released every few weeks or months. This also means I will be observing these boards and answering questions as they arise.
Hello everyone, I know the wait has been long. I'm glad that 3.0 is finally ready!
I know you must have a thousand questions. "Is this compatible with XYZ?" "How do I upgrade?" "What's new in this version?" I encourage you to please read the Frostfall 3 Primer, the FAQ, and the Compatibility pages found on the Frostfall website. They should help answer most of your questions and get you on the right track.
As always, a new game will end up being a cleaner and easier experience. However, I have provided a set of instructions to move you from 2.6 to 3.0, found in the Quickstart Guide. It should answer all of your install and upgrade questions.
Please have fun!

What's Coming Next:
The focus of future Frostfall updates will be world-focused features, like exposure affecting NPCs, in-world wood harvesting, and even more compatibility enhancements.

Changing the colors of the exposure meter in MCM does not persist after saving, it reverts to yellow for cold and red for warm, i want it to be blue and yellow respectively but if i change it to that it only persists until I load a save (even a save made after changing the colors) or exit the game, at which point it reverts to the wrong colors after loading back in. Is this a known bug? Anything I can do about it? It's very annoying. Good mod other than this one issue!
I used this mod (Chesko_Frostfall) for years, but I just don't know what the hell you were thinking with the latest update.
You totally ruined the meters. I spent over an hour getting them poitionsed correctly, because BOTTOM, LEFT and BOTTOM RIGHT just did not move them at all. It had absolutely FECK. ALL. effect on their position, whereas the older version worked perfectly. And the meters are not even the same size any more.
And now when I sleep in a bed, it has zero effect on my Fatigue level. I wake up hungry, thirsty and EVEN MORE TIRED. So RND is borked as well.
And Campfire. What the hell is that all about? "Fur Plate"? What's wrong with Cleaned Pelt? I thought "Fur Plate" was some sort of hardened fur bowl for eating out of!
Positioning a tent - much more clunky and cumbersome and even though the thing is blue, I cannot place it where I want because the text for positioning comes up only at random.
What a desperately tragic thing - a pefectly fine, excellent mod ruined by Over-Sophistication.
The Top/Bottom/Centre settings are not for repositioning the meters, they are for deciding which part of the meter counts for repositioning. You have to adjust the X and Y co-ordinates to actually reposition them on the screen.
Hello everyone.Does Frostfall work together with survival mode in SE-AE???
I want to know this too! I can't make it work, I go so far as making Campfires work, but whenever I enable Frostfall game won't launch... no error message, nothing, just won't launch.
I don't know if this is a bug or intentional, but my character is always glowing, the color of the glow depending on exposure. this is really annoying and breaks immersion a bit. is there an option somewhere to turn it off? ive looked, but couldn't find anything.
This mod has its own website detailing all its features. That said, this mod adds in two conjuration spells that let you summon a camping site, another that lets you summon a cloak, and then some alteration spells that temporarily increase your warmth. There's already some patches available for the spells from this mod if it bothers you, though honestly since none of the new spells are really useful in combat it probably doesn't matter too much.
I like the idea of this, but I don't like that it depends on the Camping mod. I have ZERO interest in camping in Skyrim.
Additionally, Frostfall seems to be adding weather, not just responding to it. Faced several full on blizzards in Riften and Falkreath with this thing turned on.
Would love to give it a try if it were better refined and separated from Camping.
same. I find myself in the freaking camping menus for 5 mins every 15 mins. I would be cool if I only had to camp once an hour or something more reasonable. I should not have to drastically alter my gameplay in a way where I'm constantly in menus checking on how much wood I have or how much extra weight I have to dedicate to carrying 4 pairs of extra clothes. s#*! takes forever just to travel to one place to get a quest done. Makes it where you want to only fast travel everywhere.
Is there a way to upgrade your armor so that it provides more warmth and cover? Just started a new playthrough using this mod for the first time and on my way up to Bleak Falls Barrow I found I had to choose between wearing my most protective armor and not having debuffs due to the cold. I know about the Modify Equipment ability, but my understanding is that that's meant to be used for equipment added by other mods. What I'm curious about is if it's possible to add fur or extra coverage to armor using the in-game crafting system.
