Exactly how I see it, the effects should be that of what you can see through a camera as those things are far more closer to each other than what organic human eyes perception of the world are capable of. They are both using the same (or at least very similar) methods of displaying and creating images so they can be perceived as a boat or a truck in ways that we are used to see them as. The current 3D effect that are used in movie theaters and monitors is more or less a bunch of 2D images fit together to simulate a deeper depth feel, not actual 3D that can be rotated around as one can do in real life. in simplest terms that is.

@Gopher Could you please publish your computer config ? I tried to find it but ended up finding nothing or too much stuff (like try "gopher computer" in forums LOL) edit: mainly details such as : processor, amount of memory and GFX card. EDIT2: nevermind found them in the "about" section on your youtube channel GTX670 ouch ... only got a GTX470 oc ... might be too much lol... I guess I'll pass

TIP: The cheapest way to post-process the look of your game without a monochrome of a framerate drop is to adjust the contrast and color ON YOUR MONITOR! If you have a screen sophisticated enough you can set up a setting for GAMES with a high contrast and color and lower the sharpness to soften edges and bloom. BOOM super cheap ENB post processing with no downloads, no consumption of CPU power or RAM or anything. Looks great!

troll ? I mean effects such as Ambiant occlusion, DOF or bloom can't be replicated with a simple screen contrast adjustment .... edit: even sharpness is stupid since, such a settings is mostly ugly & applied everywhere (so UI affected too ...)

Yes. I already did it via ENB shaders, and Michael Tichenor did it as well, if I remember well. My own pointless contribution : considering that all this is matter of tastes and considering that ENB can allow for an incredibly wide range of things, threads like this one could last forever. Some examples : the realistic/cinematic thing is an endless debate. Bloom is indeed a camera effect, but it allows to replicate some effects that are actually seen in real life, such as heat hazes, light bleeding, etc... To me, 'realism' in games is *nowadays* something pretty paradoxal. Also, I heard during so many months things as 'ENB is just for screenshots', but it only depends on hardware and tweaking capabilities. Opinions and debates about ENB are just like ENB itself : endless. Fact : this is a fantastic tool, just needs a LOT of time to get used to it and use it wisely. Thanx Gopher for this insight, and be strong if you plan to get deeper in the ENB world. Time consuming it is Best Kyo

I installed so many many ENBs, but most of them if not all, end up with : - Dungeons and sometimes interiors so dark that you can't see past 1m.Realism, yeh. - Crazy lights and light sources. - Very often, day-time is way too bright. - May corrupt your game (shadows, stuff like that), so you have to reinstall everything. Great ! It's pretty if you want to make some cool screenshots, I did that. But for playing?? Vanilla is still better both in quality & realism. Also, flashy colors are annoying, Skyrim : Nightclub. No thanks. Oh, and I didn't know that when I run, everything have to be blurry around me. Maybe the Dragonborn need some glasses !

May corrupt your game? What are you talking about? Sorry, but you're wrong on so many accounts, I can't even begin to describe it.

I completely agree. Vanilla and RLO with vanilla patch FTW!

It can cause some glitches in the skyrim world where the bloom is permanently ramped up to the point that you can't see. Still not corrupted saves but game breaking regardless.

Personally I just run Immersive Contrast Boost and like it just fine.
