Visual glitch upon entering southern areas of skyrim

Recommended Posts

Whenever I get near the areas around Fort Neugrad or Graywater Grotto my view suddenly turns dark and blurry. Even the map. I've had this happen in previous playthroughs but it doesn't seem to happen on new characters (lv1).

 

Seems after I play for a while (20-30+ levels) and finally have a reason to go down there it always happens

 

Screenshots:

I used tmm 1 so I could fasttravel to southfringe sanctum but this also happens whenever I head south beyond helgen

This is immediately after arriving: http://imgur.com/anBRJym

I would literally have enough time to draw my bow and shoot 1 arrow before this happens and if a killcam happens the screen would get blurry/dark while the arrow is is mid-flight http://imgur.com/JjVXhhF

 

Anyone have a guess why this could be happening? Or am I pretty much stuck with this? It does even out eventually but my view seems to be permanently

Hi! How are you?
Please, please tell me you found a solution?
I just re-install skyrim, add very few essential mods and the first thing I did was running all the way to the southern part of the map, and that #$!"#$ glitch happened!!!

This is by no doubt Depth of field. You can disable it but i forgot how :sad:

 

It's a simple tweak in the Skyrimprefs.ini, bDoDepthOfField=0.

But it's probably better to find out what's causing the bug and fix it, not just disable DoF altogether.

Hey! Thanks to all of you!
I'm not using any ENB or Dynavision, this glitch showed up when I was playing Skyrim with a few mods (2k textures, W.A.T.E.R., flora overhaul, live an other life, no more blocky faces, and probably that's all) and FXAA Post Process Injector.

Funny thing, it only happens south of Helgen.

I know this is a very old thread, but for posterity, I read here: https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrim/comments/2dumz3/has_anyone_run_into_the_blur/ that this may be related to the trip to Helgen in the beginning. The path begins blurry as the player wakes. Apparently this can be triggered later in the game. I wonder if it has anything to do with Live Another Life and skipping the regular intro altogether?

 

I have gotten this effect at Fort Neugrad and use LAL to start the game with alternate paths. Makes sense.
