firepyromaniac Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Hey there! I would love my water to look along the lines of this, but instead looks flat like this. I am using v0.265 of ENB and my load order can be found here.please, if you have any ideas (even bad ones) post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eiries Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Looks like your ENB visuals aren't even activated. Check to make sure Use Effect is enabled in your in game GUI (Shift+Enter to bring it up) and that UsePatchSpeedhackWithoutGraphics is not enabled in your enblocal.ini.

Eiries Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Ooohh. It's probably working, but you just need to tweak the water settings a bit. Try playing with the WavesAmplitude settings. If none of them seem to do anything, you might have an ENB that depends on different weather .inis, so you'd either have to do it from the weather window or simply hit the box next to "IgnoreWeatherSystem" at the beginning of the water settings. You probably won't even have to though. But yeah, play with that, Muddiness, other stuff. Oh, and check out Watercolor for ENB too, adds a nice coloration as well as increases the general intensity of sunlight reflections during transitional hours.

firepyromaniac Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 I tried playing with WaveAmplitude settings a lot, actually. I don't see a notable difference. The weather editing windows says it is using "enbseries.ini", the exact one I am trying to edit. I tried "Ingoreweathersystem" and that didn't seem to do anything, either. Here is a picture of what it looks like now, again still pretty but damn I want that look. Here is what my enbseries.ini looks like: [WATER] IgnoreWeatherSystem=true EnablePreCache=true EnableDispersion=true EnableCaustics=true EnableParallax=true EnableShadow=true EnableVolumetricShadow=true EnableLighting=true EnableSelfReflection=true EnableDisplacement=true DisplacementQuality=0 DisplacementFilterQuality=0 ShadowQuality=2 EnableShadowNoise=false ReflectionAmount=1.0 FrennelMultiplier=1.0 FrennelMin=0.35 FrennelMax=1.0 DispersionAmount=0.5 CausticsAmount=3.0 SunSpecularMultiplier=1.5 SunScatteringMultiplier=7.0 SunLightingMultiplier=0.5 WetMultiplier=0.7 WavesAmplitudeSunrise=1.5 WavesAmplitudeDay=1.5 WavesAmplitudeSunset=1.5 WavesAmplitudeNight=1.5 WavesAmplitudeInteriorDay=1.5 WavesAmplitudeInteriorNight=1.5 Muddiness=0.8 [UNDERWATER] IgnoreWeatherSystem=false EnableDispersion=true EnableParallax=true EnableDisplacement=true EnableSilhouette=true EnableBlurring=true EnableReflection=true EnableShadow=false ShadowQuality=0 DispersionAmount=1.0 ReflectionAmount=1.0 TransparencyFade=2.5 TransparencyCurve=1.0 DeepnessFade=2.0 DeepnessDarkening=0.5 TintAmount=2.0 TintFade=2.0 SunScatteringMultiplier=1.0 Thank you for all your help so far, I have been using ENB for ages but never have gotten pretty water working. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eiries Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 If you see ANY warping at all while playing with WaveAmplitude you'll know its working. Try turning down the muddiness to 0.2 or so. I'm still pretty convince the water is working, it might just be the angle its at. Remember the parallax only generates an illusion of 3D waves, so when the camera is at water level it's not gonna look very attractive. Also try looking at different areas, since RWT edits cells to have different water types. That area might just be more placid than usual. Try fast traveling to the Lady Stone, in the middle of Lake Illinalta. I always find the water there very nice. I'd go there and at the shore, in first person toggle the ENB on and off to see the difference. Oh, and make sure FixParallaxBugs is set to True in your enblocal.ini.

firepyromaniac Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Alright, here is a comparison shot of ENB being on and ENB being off at the lady stone. (left on, right off.) Honestly, I think it is working and I just was at really calm waves for most of this playthrough. >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
