Help finding a better ENB Preset

[DroP90]

Hi folks, I recently started to modding Skyrim and followed the most recent tutorial by predcaliber (I don't know if i'm allowed to post the link here), anyway, he uses Natural Lighting and Atmospherics by Confidence-man, and although the game looks really beautiful with this ENB, the performance hit on my machine it's very considerable, with too much drops under 30fps to be playable.

 

So I came to ask help, which ENB you guys recommend that don't have a high performance impact and isn't too unrealistic. One thing that I really liked about RLA is the light DOF compared to RealVision.

 

I tried to change the enb with all mods installed but didn't work.

 

I'm using Mod Organizer, my system: GTX970, Core i5 3.0GHz and 8GB RAM.

NLA had a higher performance impact for me than Rudy ENB NLA. You can switch quality on most settings from High to Low for better results.

 

-Rudy ENB NLA v3 (60fps / 780ti) ingame test video-

 

 

One thing that I really liked about RLA is the light DOF compared to RealVision.

 

Rudy has a very gentle DoF, comes with optional profile and includes screenshot instructions on how to tweak it ingame.

 

There are types of DoF that will cause big FPS dips and might be problematic for weaker cpu's. Ask Enb authors for DoF swapping tips.

 

I tried to change the enb with all mods installed but didn't work.

 

What do you mean? The only problem you might encounter is caused by installing different Enb preset (not compatible with NLA) when you already have NLA weather .esp in your load order.

Dude, you're da real mvp, just tried this ENB with caliber's build and worked great, full quality had the same performance impact, but the possibility to change the options makes total difference.

I installed True Vision as recomended by the friend above, will try this one to see if i like more. Thank you bro.

 

I started to mod skyrim just now, enb are more complicated do deal because you need combine with other mods (lightning, weather) and archives, so I got lost when tried to remove NLA.

Np :wink:

For me presonally True Vision wasn't enough. I like when my ENB makes the textures look smooth and sharp at the same time, to help Skyrim maks it's shortcomings (the game looks old on it's own due to DX9 limitations). Good shaders and lightning will do the trick.

First time might seem like black magic, but it gets easy once you get the hang of it.

 

Rudy Enb has few options, so you can practice installing process and compare the difference between lightning/weather mods. If you want it to look similiar to True Vision try Rudy URWL version with RS Light Color.esp pluging from ELE lightning overhaul mod by --JawZ-- (FULL / LITE site).

 

When trying out different weather mods (CoT, NLVA/Vivid Weathers, etc) remember to remove the pluging after you moved your charater to interior cell. Save and wait/sleep for 7 days to clear custom weather.
