Water and Pop-up


Savre

Recommended Posts

Greetings all,

 

I'm new here and to mods as I've never really had a decent computer until recently. I have to small questions I hope people can help me out with.

 

1) Which water mod is the best or highly recommended. There are quite a few so I was hoping people could give me some advice on which ones to look at.

 

2) How can I reduce pop-up. It doesn't occur that often but when it does its quite obvious. I'm trying to make a small film thus I'd like the graphics to be as smooth as possible when capturing.

 

I'm playing on Ultra settings except with Shadows on High because Ultra tends to make my fps drop below 60.

 

 

Thnx.

 

Specs:

 

Sandy Bridge i5 2500

Sapphire ATi Radeon HD 5850 2gb

4gb Ram

Hmm, there's actually ton of water mods out there. And the choice which is best is usually based on your own opinion.

 

Although i think it's save to say that the better ones include wave foam and water sprays...

 

Personally i think these 3 do a great job at improving water:

 

1. Immersive water 3 - http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=3068

 

2. Alternate HQ water - http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1095

 

3. RTW. Realistic water textures - http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=711

 

And a nice addition:

 

4. the sounds of nature: Water - http://www.skyrimnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=4226

 

Have a look and take the one you think is best, since i don't think it's wise for us to make that choice for you :P

 

Edit:

 

Right, the pop-up stuff...

Not sure how to counteract that.. maybe making sure GPU drivers are up to date, and maybe trying Skyrim ENBSeries to solve graphical bugs because Skyrim doesnt really seem to like ATI cards that much.. (including mine :( )

 

ENBSeries download page:

Latest version (as of now):

TES Skyrim v0.101 - version of Skyrim graphic mod. In this version code from AntiFREEZE patch implemented to increase stability. A lot of different bugfixes and changes.

 

Maybe that'll solve the pop-up stuff for you :)
