Tajjara Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) I was hoping to use ENBoost, but I can't get it to work for some strange reason. Whenever I try to use it, I instantly CTD after the Bethesda logo. 1. I've tried both the S.T.E.P. instructions and the actual Nexus download page's instructions.2. I've tried using both the Injector and Wrapper versions.3. I uninstalled GeForce Experience, so it isn't that.4.

I am not using an ENB. 8. The game loads completely fine when not trying to use ENBoost. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Valkasha Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Do you have a background program like afterburner or fraps running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tajjara Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share Posted September 27, 2014 Nope, nothing. Just Steam. I even tried closing down other programs processes, like iTunes background stuff for example, just to see if having less stuff open made a difference.

elezraita Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Why do you have both realistic water two and water? Also, it looks like you have your skytest uskp patch loading before skytest. You should run loot and look at the messages. This sounds like a load order issue to me and not a problem with enboost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tajjara Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) That load order is generated from LOOT. Not sure where you're seeing the SkyTEST thing. The first SkyTEST in the list is the main .esp (It's the esp flagged as esm for patching purposes), near the top. The one you're seeing may be the Dawnguard patch, which LOOT set to load before the USKP patch. Should I manually move the Dawnguard and Dragonborn patches to load after the USKP one? Also, I have both Realistic Water and WATER because I'm using the optional features from WATER without the core files, which is an option in the installer. Lets you use some of the tiny things along with core files from other water mods. Realistic Water is the main, with just things like splashes and such from WATER. Is there any mods in my load order that would stop ENBoost from working? ENBoost doesn't have an esp, so would load order affect it? Oh, and I forgot to mention. Without ENBoost, my game loads completely fine. Edited September 27, 2014 by fragmentedbeauty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elezraita Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Ok, so it turns out I'm pretty much blind. I didn't see the first skytest esp near the top. Sorry about that. What are your enblocal.ini settings, and do you have the binaries (from the enbdev website) in your game folder and not in your data folder? Are you using the wrapper version or the injector version of the binaries? And no, load order would not affect ENB. The reason I assumed it was a load order issue is that CTD after the Bethesda logo usually indicates a load order problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tajjara Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) I tried both the injector and wrapper versions (separately), and placed them in the Skyrim folder, and not the Data folder. As per the S.T.E.P. instructions, I only used the d3d9.dll, enbhost.exe, and enblocal.ini files. The Nexus page was a little less clear, so I just repeated the same when I tried that version.

camaro_69_327 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) Forget the ENBboost from the Nexus. read the Description page, Boris gave up on the nexus. Last update to that page was.... 11 september 2013: updated 0.217 binaries. Fixed crash with RemoveBlur parameter. ENB is now at version 264. GO to the source ->Enbdev,com, download the 262 (264 has issues) binaries , install the full Default ENB, test and get Official ENB working BEFORE adding a preset (from the nexus). This will insure you can run the ENB. Many programs can and do cause ENB to crash on start, Steam's overlay, Razer Game booster, afterburner, PrecisionX , some can be made to work with ENB (see my SIG) others no. Do a Clean BOOT. << if you can Run the ENB after that, something that loads with windows is the problem...find it. EDIT: to add....ALL Versions of ENB now come with ENBboost, its hard to actually use ENB without the boost feature. This line is to have it with or without graphics. UsePatchSpeedhackWithoutGraphics=true IF the above line is set TRUE you get Boost only , and NO graphic changes the rest of ENB is disabled.IF the above line is set FALSE you get Boost AND all the Rest of the ENB is active. So actually not easy to use without Boost. Edited September 28, 2014 by camaro_69_327 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tajjara Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 I don't want to use an ENB at all. I only want the memory thing. I'll avoid the Nexus version, but when I use S.T.E.P., it still doesn't work. However, I was using version 264, so I'll try with 262 and see if that makes a difference. If I'm NOT using an ENB, are the S.T.E.P. instructions correct in that I only need those 3 files I listed before? Or am I missing something and do I need more files?

Novem99 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 At first post your PC specs (espacially video card and RAM). Then I can help you. But I already see not ideal settings in your enblocal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
