I don't know if it's intended, but I'm not seeing any particles on rain maps. I can hear the sounds but I don't see any rain. I haven't encountered a snow map yet, so I don't know if that's also the case with snow. Also, it's ridiculously dark on non-city night maps.

It's because the Chance to rain was so low (30%) that more likely than not it wasn't gonna rain/snow. It's now set to 95%, so it will rain most of the time.

Hello I had a night map with rain. the rain was showing/clipping in firebrand as you wrote in the mod description. (no problem at all :D). But in the tactical mission i had no rain! only the music/noise from the rain, but the visuals for the rain were not showing. This happened so far only once for me. And it was also on a custom map plot, so i am not sure if this is related to this mod or the map mod or a combo between them.

Turns out that it's intentional. There's a chance that the game will choose whether or not the map will rain (30% for vanilla, but this mod will increase that chance to 55%).

I might remove the sound from that map.

This mod made some maps appear very bright, without any shadows. It caused this issue more often than it worked. Here is a list of mods that I had installed (snippet from XCOM 2 Mod Launcher): https://pastebin.com/453n0qH1

I don't understand why these certain mods cause this bug. It should work like any other map mod.

Perfect Information is rumored to cause a lot of problems, but I doubt it has anything to do with the shadowless maps.

Clear your config first, then use the Official X2 Launcher and see if the problem persists.

Do you think you could fix the glitch that makes it so the sky gets smeared by an object that is at an angle to be in front of it? I don't know what the proper term would be called, but doesn't that only happen when there is no skybox?

I know this is an older mod, but...
1) Some of the nighttime skyboxes don't load/render properly and cause graphical artifacts, as mentioned back in 2017.
2) Nights really can get TOO dark in this mod. I've played maps where I literally couldn't see any terrain features or map objects at all. The light level on the darkest setting really needs to be bumped up a bit.

Bug: when you're looking through the replay cam you can't see a damn thing because lights are constantly shining directly into the camera :o

Note: WOTC with Musashi's and etc.

I got a crash loading into a rescue prisoner mission (Pratal Mox as part of the WOTC tutorial storyline) that I'm pretty sure is caused by this. Log mentions missing skybox assets.

This mod looks amazing, but it's hard to enjoy it because the night maps have these annoying bright lights that take up half the screen during the action cam. I feel like I'm being flashbanged.
