Make Skyrim look great in few easy steps

[mindw0rk2]

For many people its a pain to install HQ textures, considering how many there are. So Ive made a package to ease the process. Whats inside achive:

 

1. Huge collection of textures based on Texture Pack Combiner (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/20801). All core and optional textures included in best quality (up to 4k resolution).

2. Several additional textures: better urns, HQ male and female faces, retextured weapons and armors, etc..

3. Weather mods: Climates of Tamriel, Natural Skyrim Rain, Immersive Thunder, Mintis Lightning mod.

4. Superb ENB-RL with performance SSAO, no DoF preset. You can turn it off in game by pressing ALT+F12 or download other preset from here: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/11318

 

How to install in 3 easy steps:

1. Download archive from torrent (which is faster):

Or manually from this site:

2. Extract archive to Skyrim folder.

3. Start SkyrimLauncher.exe and make sure every .esp and .esm in Data Files is checked. Enjoy the game.

 

Warning, these textures require high-end gaming rig, at least GTX 560 GPU recommended. Few pictures how it looks ingame:

Also a short video on weather effects:

 

Im not an author of any of textures, this is just an easy compilation for lazy people. All praise goes to people who made all those wonderful mods.

 

 

 

ps/ this texture pack works great with 3D Vision (Skyrim looks absolutely incredible in 3D. The most immersive game ever made). If you have Nvidia 3D tech, this is how to make it work:

After first 3 installation steps..

4. Rename d3d9.dll to d3d9enb.dll

5. Extract Helix fix (https://s3.amazonaws.com/-HeliX-/skyrim.3DVis.zip) to game folder

6. Open DX9Settings.ini, add in [General] this line (should be first):

ProxyLib = C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\skyrim\d3d9enb.dll

(change the path if you have Skyrim in different folder)

7. Play the game.

 

This beast will be the hardest test for your gaming rig. But its totally worth it.
