Need some help

[FredyPt]

So i din't really notice an fps drop on my system (in 1080p fps on top left; VRAM always full):

 

My LOD quality is 256: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwIs0R_Z0S2DZDRoRi1RRXMzM1k/view?usp=sharing and https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwIs0R_Z0S2DcDRaUHFrUzNHNDQ/view?usp=sharing

 

FPS testing: with LOD: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwIs0R_Z0S2DQTlKeUVvYjY3N2c/view?usp=sharing without LOD: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwIs0R_Z0S2DS0dNTTdONVBvUm8/view?usp=sharing

(the black aura around the lights is cause by a known bug between RealVision COT V and ELFX 3.0 will get fixed in the next ENB update).

 

Other testing (the weather decided to change on me so i don't think it's a valid): with LOD: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwIs0R_Z0S2DenpEdXQ0T1h3Mkk/view?usp=sharing without LOD: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwIs0R_Z0S2DWkg4VkNuSUtKTlk/view?usp=sharing

 

Invalid test: with LOD: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwIs0R_Z0S2DNW5hX1FpRFRlWEk/view?usp=sharing without LOD: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwIs0R_Z0S2DYVRXOFROSXp6cU0/view?usp=sharing

(this one is strange the one without LOD has less frames than the one with it :dry: probably just the fact that on Win10 it just doesn't work)

 

I'm not good with screenshots so no judges pls :happy: .

(tell me if the links work)

 

Mod pack !work in progress! : https://testing-ee4f4.firebaseapp.com/u/Star579 <--- normal modwatch doesn't seem to work (ENB is RealVision for COT V + SweetFX).

 

On the SKSE memory patch don't go over 1024 on Mod Organizer or the game will crash if the memory fills up.

Yes all the links work. What are your specs btw?

What kind of fps are you getting outside? if youre not getting 60fps anywhere outside id be a bit concerned, but if its just certain areas I would say thats normal. I think even mxr on youtube got a 1080 and wasnt hitting 60 fps.

That is the thing, with all those Lod's, with some texture mods and Enb I didn't even reached 60 fps in most of the parts.

You are even that far from my specs and I still can't get this to work smooth.

[Lathalias]

What are your specs exactly? Have you changed anything in your ini files? And what is your cpu and gpu utilization % while playing?

[Project579]

So try making Skyrim vanilla again, move the installation outside of User Account Control (UAC) protected folders (copy the old installation somewhere if you want to keep everything) Link on how to 100% clean Skyrim: http://wiki.step-project.com/Guide:Make_Skyrim_Vanilla_Again Launch the game to set the .ini.

 

Then download SKSE: move only "skse_loader.exe", "skse_1_9_32.dll", "skse_steamloader.dll" and the folder called "src" inside the Skyrim directory where "TESV.exe" is located. Before copying make sure that the archive is not blocked by windows right click the archive go to "Proprieties" and in the "General" tab check if there is a Security thing on the bottom saying: "This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect the computer." if there is select the box Unblock and then press Apply to save then OK to exit.

 

Then Download Mod Organizer from Nexus make sure that the installer is not blocked and use the portable installation method (create a folder iniside Skyrim and select it when installing Mod Organaizer).

 

After installing Mod Organaizer open it and create a new profile call it "Vanilla" and select "Local Save Game" "Local Game Setting" "Automatic Archive Invalidation" (you might not have "Local Game Setting") then click "Install a new mod from an archive" find your SKSE archive and select it on the pop up set the folder called "Data" in the archive as "Data Folder" on the left bottom the windows should say "Looks Good" change the name to SKSE Scripts then press "OK" and move the mod on top of the mods tab even before the Unmanaged DLCs if you want.

 

Make sure the mods tab is in order:

Unmanaged: Dawnguard

Unmanaged: HearthFires

Unmanaged: Dragonborn

Unmanaged: HighRes TexturePack01

Unmanaged: HighRes TexturePack02

Unmanaged: HighRes TexturePack03

SKSE Scripts

 

Then make sure the load order is ok:

Skyrim.esm

Update.esm

Dawnguard.esm

HearthFires.esm

Dragonborn.esm

HighRes TexturePack01<---disable it and make sure its selected in the archive tab and that the box Let Mod Organizer Manage archives is selected.

HighRes TexturePack02<---disable it and make sure its selected in the archive tab.

HighRes TexturePack03<---disable it and make sure its selected in the archive tab.

 

If SKSE didn't appear near the Run button add it by selecting the slider click <Edit> and type as title SKSE then search for the skse_loader.exe Binary and Add it.

 

Launch the game then tweak your .ini by clicking on the top of Mod Organizer "Tools" then "INI Editor".

 

After that add TES5Edit to Mod Organizer and clean the Master Files.

 

After confirming that the game works install the ENB. (If you want an exact explanation on how to install it tell me what ENB you are using.)

 

When you download something manually without manager always make sure they are not blocked.

This can answer all your questions, right?

Edit: I didn't change anything in the ini's except for the recommended settings for the enb.

I was already using MO. I know my way around it too, been modding Skyrim for 3 years. And that is what makes me mad, I usually find some solution to my problems but can't find one for this.

[Project579]

Yes and it doesn't seem to be a vram related problem. Update your modwatch as well first part of mods tab is wrong:

Unmanaged: HighResTexturePack03

Unmanaged: HighResTexturePack02

Unmanaged: HighResTexturePack01

Unmanaged: HearthFires

Unmanaged: Dragonborn

Unmanaged: Dawnguard

Should be like this:

Unmanaged: Dawnguard

Unmanaged: HearthFires

Unmanaged: Dragonborn

Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch

Unmanaged: HighRes TexturePack01

Unmanaged: HighRes TexturePack02

Unmanaged: HighRes TexturePack03

Unofficial High Resolution Patch

skse 1 07 03

Unofficial ELFX SMIM ENB fps performance patch should go under ELFX and SMIM in the mods tab.

After fixing those follow this guide: https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/753253-only-you-can-prevent-forest-fires/ for fixing the load order and the mod order if a mod is overwriting some files make sure that it's what it is suppose to do.
