[How do I make my game look like this?]

Making Skyrim look good is a lot of work.

 

For me a fresh install of Skyrim equals several hours of installing mods, cleaning mods, troubleshooting mods.

 

When I first started with modding Skyrim for improved graphics I found the instructions from the RealVision ENB mod to be really useful.

Not only do they cover the installation of ENB it also lists a lot of good graphic mods to compliment it.

Just make sure you read the entire thing, if you don't things won't work well.

 

ENB is a resource hog though and you don't really need it you can get some amazing results without it. This is currently how my game looks without using the ENB graphical enhancements:

But this is a combination of over 100 mods. Looks great and still runs at 60 fps+ (running a i5 3570k, 8gb ram and a GTX 670 4GB at 2560 x 1080). With ENB it does look better but not by much but it tanks my fps to < 30 fps which is not playable.

Why not approach Malukah, the girl well known for her amazing Skyrim theme covers.

 

Maybe she will be interested in this project and is willing to do a book or two.

 

That would be so amazing!
