I think everything is installed correctly. I installed everything the exact same way I did before I reinstalled Skyrim itself, so I don't see why it doesn't look the same.

Bump. Another weird problem I have noticed is the Skyrim emblem in the main menu is much darker than normal with the ENB mod installed. It never used to do this before the reinstall. Is there any advice anyone can give me??

[Fix]

IgnoreLoadingScreen=true

 

This will make it skip load screens.

Oh haha, I'm talking about the emblem in the main menu. Also, the 3D objects shown while the game loads are also really dark.

Thanks for that, though!

It's weird that your game would look that way but the main screen emblem would be darker. I noticed my mainscreen emblem [and most loading screens] change after installing RLO, but your ingame ss looks nothing like mine. I'm fairly certain something is conflicting with RLO and basically rendering it ineffective in game. Remember that when you uninstall something, NMM will revert anything effected to vanilla status, so even if you uninstalled the conflicting mod, it may not revert back to RLO's settings. If uninstalling RLO and waiting to reinstall it until the end [after you've installed every other mod] doesn't fix I'm out of ideas.
This is what RLO should look like during the day if it's working, I'm pretty certain yours isn't, at least not all of it. Since your emblems darkened it's at least partially registering.

Thank you for the reassurance! Yeah, my game definitely does not look like that. lol. I recently reinstalled Skyrim completely AND deleted all of the mods from the NMM. The first mod I installed was ENB .119, and I got the same results. Something interesting, though: when I launched Skyrim for the first time through NMM, the "data files" option wasn't greyed out, and the variable in SkyrimPrefs.ini was already changed. Other things, like bTreesReceiveShadows, were not changed and showed the default value of "0," but I'm wondering if there are other files I need to delete upon uninstalling Skyrim before the reinstall.

As I said before, when I began downloading mods the very first time I installed the game, I simply downloaded a ton of mods and installed them, too. The results were really good, and I just can't figure out why replicating that process yields different results. :(

Skyrim has 2 paths, one in program files [or wherever you chose to install the game] and another under my docs>games. That second path stores some of your settings info and isn't always uninstalled when you remove the game. NMM is similar and caches your previous settings in an alternate location, either in my docs>games or in the NMM install folder. I can't say for sure where yours is, but mine's c:/games/nexus mod manager/skyrim. That folder holds a folder called "install info" that may have old settings. Uninstall all mods then delete that folder. It'll be recreated the next time you install mods using fresh information. When I reinstalled Skyrim/NMM last time both those folders had old data that was messing up everything.

 

Another thing to check are you Skyrim graphics settings from the launcher. Make sure everything gets set to the intensities you had before.

You may also want to check your graphics card.

I recently reinstalled Skyrim, and I had issues I had never encountered before, including my favourite ENB looking like crap in my game. I use nVidia, and had the 310 drivers, and everything ran fine - other people who had the 310 drivers reported all kinds of problems. Reinstalled, and I got the blue screen glitches, grey world instead of the colourful ENB one, broken SSAO...downgraded to the 306 drivers, as the 314 ones were also bad, and my issues were fixed.

I had a similar issue with my Radeon 7660/6770 crossfire. When I tried to use the launchers antialiasing and anisotropic filtering my game looked and ran like crap with only 8x aa and 2x af. I turned off the launchers aa/af and set my driver to override application settings and now I run with 16xeq aa and 8x af perfectly.
