Looking for visual and graphics improvements mods

[HarryD]

Here is my mod list. I'm going to be trying different mods to see what I like better. The landscape/trees still look "muddy".

I was playing an alternate beginning, walking to Whiterun and I had a CTD. Not too concerned about it because I'm seeing what works and what I'd like to remove.

I'm going to remove the flora overhaul and try enhanced vanilla trees with verdant grass.

 

LOOT said my load order was good but I got red check marks with Wrye Bash.

That's not your modlist. That's your plugin list. Most texture replacers come without such a plugin so this list is not suitable to give an impression of what mods you use.

I removed flora overhaul and installed enhanced trees with the grass. The trees look good but it looks as though there is too much grass.

Here is my mod list, I think:

Red checkboxes in WB mean that a required master is missing. Orange is pretty much worthless - it means that your current load order doesn't exactly match the load order of the mod's masters--just ignore it.

 

For grass plugins you can tweak the suggested ini changes to get a grass density that you like.

 

From skyrim.ini

[Grass]

iMinGrassSize=50

 

The iMinGrassSize setting can be set higher for less grass/more performance or lower for more grass/less performance. Yes, the higher/lower values are counter-intuitive. Start with the setting suggested by your mod, then tweak to your preference.

Thanks for that, panurgy.

I've installed these mods and haven't read too much info on the correct settings as far as load order or .ini config.

I guess I'm not alone on that one. Probably why some of us have issues.
