G3D Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim thread Pt. 4

Finally got my ENB setup now, ready to play tomorrow =]

It's based on Zoners High Performance ENB but with 0.130 and lots of tweaks.

 

what kind of race will be good with:

Right hand sword/axe
Left Hand Magic

Yes?

 

I did a Battlemage build with a Brenton, that race has some magic buffs and is good with 1-handed weapons.

This is a good guide:

I put most of my perk points into: Destruction, Restoration, Enchanting, 1 Handed Weapons, Heavy Armor & Smithing

 

Heavy armor? U sure? Hmmm. I was thinking to go for light but i think itmwill be better to heavy.

and according to here

http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Races_(Skyrim)

Dunmer is suitable for me. i mean i want to go with Destruction spell as focus.

 

Yah I started with Light Armor originally but was getting killed constantly during melee attacks.

I went with Breton mostly because of these perks, which are really good for mages.

• Dragonskin : Absorb 50% of magicka from hostile spells for 60 seconds.
• Magic Resistance : Breton blood grants a 25% resistance to magic.

If you plan on using that the whole game, anything that doesn't start out with bonuses for them.

Gives you more level ups in the end, you won't be forced to use an unfamiliar weapon.

 

Vanilla Skyrim? Race is just superficial beyond first few level so (for min-max purpose breton and orc are best for EVERYTHING)... anything really.

 

Battling with Nexus here, never used it before Should i disable plugins for HighResTexturePack?

Ive got Sharpshooters gfx mod + Enchanced blood mod.

It is showing me few plugins from Steam workshop, eg. lush grass, lush water.

But i still get random triangles flashing on the screen now n then. Tried few different combos. Also water is like a mirror and once you jump in, its green and cant see anything

 

Do this:

 

AH thanx dude,ill give it a go tonight!

Installed ENB Superb Mod last night. At first everything was black apart from water and sky. then i used some other files and it worked. Still a little bit too dark but playable.

 

Anyway to improve the way shadows cast on the ground next to characters or some objects. It looks bloody awful and I find it quite jarring. Ive tweaked around in the SkyrimPrefs.ini but can't find a solution.

 

I use an enb version that only changes the shadows. This way the game doesn't look like a vaseline-fest and the shadows are really decent as well. You could try that.

 

Well I quite like the enb preset i'm using atm, guess i'll just have to put up with it. Cheers anyway.

 

Is anybody else using Sharpshooters Extreme Graphics Vision ENB? I have sorted few things out with it, but water still looks funny. There is no waves and it looks like a mirror.

 

hmm, might wanna try that shadow enb, game seems to et ~1.8GB vram on ultra settings with the official hi res texture.

edit:
what particular enb modifies the shadow?

 

Yea i was looking at that too. Will try it tonight. Sharpshooters looks really nice apart from water for me.

 

Using a customized UNBLEAK ENB myself with 0.131.

Had to do some texture editing for Flora Overhaul and Serious HD Overhaul tho. But it now matches and Grass doesn't pop out as dark bushes anymore

 

Still no release date for dragonborn.
