About this mod
This mod fixes all of the meshes of Dragten's and Pfuscher's mods so that they are rendered correctly ingame. The snow effect is showing when using Wet and Cold and should also be compatible with Frostfall or mods using the same effect.

The excellent mod by Dragten: Bandolier - Bags and Pouches is well-known for its immersive feel and I have used it in my mod setup from the first time I modded Skyrim. Unfortunately some of the meshes didn't show the snow effect from Wet and Cold in snowy weather conditions and had some lighting issues as well. Upon inspection, I observed that the snow effect was applied on the inside of the mesh. So I opened Blender and fixed the inverted normals and some of the meshes and applied some tangents and bitangents in Nifskope. I also ran Nifscan on the meshes and fixed any errors I could find. Note that the meshes have not been altered in size i.e. they still clip with custom/some armors and clothes.
Upon user request and thanks to the permission of Pfuscher I have changed my meshes to be compatible with his mod: Upgrade for Bandolier - Bags and Pouches. Unfortunately this patch will only show the glassy and snow effect but the transparency will be lost due to an incompatibility with the Alpha Properties used by both the transparency effect and the snow shader.
