SSE ENB in doubt

[DarthSidious666]

Anyone found a skin SSS Shader for Reshade yet?

 

Best way to find out whether SE Skyrim can match up to Skyrim is by testing.

I've managed to get about 25% of the mods I have on Skyrim (so far) to play nice with SE Skyrim and the best bit is the much improved stability in se skyrim.

 

Every 2 hours roughly in Skyrim it would crash to desktop. In SE Skyrim it only crashed when incompatible mods were installed but they were easy culprits to weed out and uninstall (due to the fact they were always last in the loading order.

The lighting system although subtle is a nice feature (yeah it should have been there from the beginning imo).

 

The only issue I'm having really is that there isn't an Mod Organiser version for SE Skyrim, the NMM can be very messy so it will be nice to see the rebuilt version when its done.

I'm actually starting to get used to gfx now, starting to love it as opposed to saying I would prefer the Vividian. I think with a darker night and dungeons mod I'd be absolutely happy as is.

in the meantime i use the wrye bash one..works ok, and is not at all difficult. good help included.

I think it SE wont be like OG skyrim when it comes to mods.

 

OG will be better in that term, since it some modders did left or left modding forever.

just wait and see, se will be wayyy better, it already is , in my view.

i dont think i can go back, man it runs soo smooth, never a stutter, great wter, good lighting, wonderfull trees.

and...no need for a biggame machine, i run it well on a lappie 2.8 ghz with nvidia 950m...ofcourse some tweaking done , but it runs like butter.

I know what you mean.

 

But some mod of OG may never be ported.

That's fine. Beth are working on a new IP and confirmed TES6 isn't in development. That means (assuming a very short dev cycle of three years per game) we have a minimum of 5 more years before TES6 is released, most likely 6 or 7 years. It's been 5 years since Skyrim released and look how many mods there are. We've got at least all that time again for SSE, probably longer.

 

Many mods won't be ported, but many new mods will be created. The discussions in this thread are almost identical to the discussions that were going on when Oblivion and Skyrim launched.

 

"No point playing Oblivion. Modded Morrowind looks better! Modded Morrowind has dynamic shadows and 3D water waves! The grass moves as you walk through it!"

 

"No point playing Skyrim. Modded Oblivion looks better! Modded Oblivion has OBGE for ambient occlusion, depth of field, and gorgeous water reflections. And it has RAEVWD for insane distant object LOD!"

 

It's a constant cycle, and when TES6 is releasing you can be sure people will be claiming there's no point in it because modded Skyrim SE is the most beautiful and content rich game there is, ever was, and ever will be. For now, we have a 64bit engine, vast improvements to performance, hundreds of characters allowed on screen, rain occlusion, no z fighting, better water flow, gorgeous shadows, and some stunning volumetric lighting. That's a phenomenal base to build on, and you'll likely see mods for SSE that just won't be stable on old Skyrim.

 

ENB will probably come in time. Boris often goes back and forth on these things. Luckily we have ReShade 3 until then :)

I did not mean that.

 

I mean 100% leaving OG skyrim may not be possible since some mods wont be ported.

 

If you wanna a mod of OG, you may need to use og skyrim.

[Darkstorne]

Yeah I know what you mean. I'm saying it won't matter. If enough people want what the mod did, someone else will take over or make something similar from scratch. It's only a matter of time, and we have the better part of a decade :)

I saw people claiming that they won't move to SSE because of ENB, so if ENB doesn't get updated, there will be two Skyrim modding communities, for the original and SSE. Personally, I moved completely to SSE and don't intend to go back to the original.
