Enb Porblems

[daemmerungen]

Hello! I have a few questions regarding enbs. Maybe I should go to the enb forum but since this is mainly about Skyrim I figured maybe someone can help me here too.

 

I dont really care about ENBs or things like that. What I care about the most is how strong the colors/saturation is. That and water that is not muddy. However there are no mods as far as I know that clear the water and make it more ''seethrough'' and the only way to change that is to install an ENB and change the water settings in the enblocal.ini.

 

I tried installing Clarity ENB and followed the steps except for the last where I had to download something from the enbforum that wasn't linked so I had to give up on that, I tried stakado but the ENB file from the website I was supposed to download didnt have all the files I was supposed to put in my skyrim folder. Now I am trying to install the Zoners High Performance ENB but it is all SO COMPLICATED I cant stand it!

 

I also use Mod Organizer where I have to change the skyrim.ini and skyrimprefs.ini for every profile. I did change them just the way Clarity ENB said and it didnt work - My Skyrim ''Failed to Render'' which I googled and it happens when you didnt prepared/altered your ini files according to the enb you are trying to run. Do I also have to change the INI file in my skyrim document folder EVENTHOUGH my skyrim doesnt use it since I use Mod Organizer? It's all so f*#@ing mindf*#@ing - It makes me want to kill someone. All I want is god damn clear water!!

 

My question is is there any other way to change the water muddiness outside an ENB, and if I manage to install Zoner or Stakado - these enbs are so old - can I even change the water settings?

 

Ty for reading through this anyway..

Instead of roubleshooting all 3 ENBs at once, let's start with Clarity ENB. Which file did you give up on? I checked the links and they're all there. Maybe you're blocked from Mega? Here are original links to the files you need:

• Clarity ENB
• ENBseries (try v0.262 first)
• Skyrim Particle Patch (Mega or Google Drive)
• Subsurface Scattering Patch (Mega)
• Enhanced ENB Night Eye (first file only)

To answer your other question, you do NOT have to touch the INIs in your Documents folder if you are using MO, as long as you've modified the ones for your profile.

 

Is the message that you're getting "Failed to initialize renderer"? What video card do you have, and are you playing on a laptop? Sometimes laptops have problems, especially if it can switch between integrated graphics and video card. Be sure to update your graphics drivers.

 

Also, make sure that you are not running any programs that add an overlay to the game. For instance, programs that show your FPS or voice chat apps like TeamSpeak or Discord. Usually disabling the overlay is enough.
