My skyrim looks terrible. NLVA+ELFX combo.

TBH, the 'guide' you mentioned is just a bunch of mods thrown together. I would go for content and stability first, then the basic texture replacer with enb in mind, at the end enb on top of it.

While the latest version of ENB goes more for stability at the cost of performance, 0.292 is the last one that went for performance only.

 

I would follow this: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/74427/?

Then install whatever texture mods you want and feel happy. The author is also very responsive and helpful.

 

Or for a complete package with preselected mods for you, follow the STEP project: http://wiki.step-project.com/STEP:2.2.9.2

 

My thoughts exactly. ^^^

 

I actually build my mod list around ENB tho not the other way around. ENB has the biggest visual impact and it needs to be decided before hand to know what weather and lighting mods if any your game will be built around. Also need to know where you are performance wise before you start adding on top of it. So those are the reasons why ENB is one of the first things i install.

 

Totally agree on that "guide" tho and focusing on getting your game setup properly first.

 

Also NLVA is very bright. Thats about how its intended to look. I used it for a bit myself.
