Well...I agree with you on the rain...drops are WAY too big....

So i decided to visit the Scene dat file via MiniTweaker and make some changes.

Catagory 31....listed as "Random Wind & Rain" ,has a listing for MinSize and one for MaxSize.
These values set the size of the water droplets.

Stock values are....MinSize - 0.02
MaxSize - 0.08

I changed those values to ...MinSize - 0.0095 / Maxsize - 0.04

I think the rain looks much better now with the smaller size drops, but be your own judge and use any value you want...not too small though!...you still want to see the rain!... and by trial & error...I think these values work well.

PS....Dont forget to remove the copy of Scene dat from your Data file before checking out the new rain!

Now you just need to find you a big o' storm.......
and...of course......

Enjoy! i
