Does SSE finally upgrade Skyrim to 64-bit?

[Govilku]

The reason behind this question being that 64-bit applications have a higher memory cap. Skyrim had a hard 4gb limit so I couldnt use too many memory intensive mods without CTD.

Yes, that is one of the main upgrades to the SE.

Here's a breakdown of what it has(That I know of or have been told of.):

 

- 64bit

- DirectX11

- Advanced Physics Engine(Think HDT, but baked in this time. Basically, it's Fallout 4's physics engine.)

- Upgraded Shaders(i.e. Snow, Water, etc.)

- Massive amounts of foliage

- Higher Resolution Textures(Surpasses the Official High Resolution DLC, or at least, they're higher quality than they were before.)

- God Rays

- Volumetric Fog/Clouds

- Subsurface Scattering(I noticed it on leaves and water, not sure about skin and other objects.)

- Depth of Field

Didn't Skyrim use LMA? i was always under the impression the crashes were a fault of mem allocation rather than memory limitation

If I had to guess it was both. I know that when you exceeded or got too close to the memory limit the game would either crash or black screen.

This may be a silly question but will the characters have 360 movement like in Fallout 4 or will it be like Skyrim where when you back petal you have your back turned to the screen
