Sharpshooter's Enb mod causing insta crash

[shiner421]

Hello folks, first time posting here.

 

I know this is a very difficult question to answer without a ton of information, so I'll start with the basics. Rig specs:

 

Core I7 - 3770k @ 3.4 GHZ

G skill Ripjaw 8gb x 4 32 GB ram @ 1600 Mhz

Gigabyte Z77x-ud5h / Corsair SSD 120 GB

2 x 1TB 7200 RPM

 

Yes, I have a ton of mods, and I never tried the Enb stuff until after all these mods were installed. I try to use NMM for all my mods. I had realistic lighting with customization installed, so I de-activated that in NMM, then closed it and ran Skyrim. I immediately exited, and then installed Enb 113 and chose wrapper version. Then I installed shparshooter's enb using NMM, and ran Skyrim. It insta CTD, no error message. I then de-activated sharpshooters, and installed the injector version. I then re-activated Sharpshooters, and ran Skyrim, and it crashed saying it encountered an error.

 

I think my next step is create a save, delete all ENB stuff out of skyrim base directory, de-activate all mods in NMM, and then install only enb and sharpshooters, see if it works.

 

Should I be using Enb 113 or 117?

 

Ill check back with my findings, thanks!

 

Lol, I create seperate save, disable ALL plugins except for skyrim.esm, update.esm, and dawnguard.esm, and I can start the game and get to main menu, but if I try to load my game it insta CTD with no mods.

It's obviously a mod issue, after playing around, and re-enabling all my mods, it seems to work now.

 

Guess when modding its a matter of just playing around sometimes hehe.

 

I went in to the enbseries.ini and turned on SSAO and DOF, however, the DOF effect I get is not at all noticeable. I wonder what I am doing wrong here as on the screenshots for sharpshooters enb they have a lot of DOF effect.

The problem is that you are trying to install ENB with NMM. You can't use any mod manager to install ENB correctly. It has to be a manual install. :)

Interesting. I somehow got it to work with NMM. it is so beautiful! I have a feeling though that the plugin in NMM that shows up as active isnt really actually active, and my manual install is taking precedence. Thank you for your reply!
