OOPS! Version 1.2 and 1.3 are incomplete I compiled the esp wrong. Version 1.3 is now fixed.

You may have to download it again, unless you've figured out how to fix it by this stage - sorry for any frustration/inconvenience.


NO MORE BLACK BOXES! A visually pleasing solution to refraction shaders incompatibility with some Ati cards.

The only visual loss with this mod is the 'air shimmer'.

The beta patch fixes this issue for some people, but in the full patch release, this will almost certainly be fixed for everyone. If not and certainly until then, this is a complete solution to this issue.


Fixes / changes
Have now included reanimate, turn undead and sigil stones

Some people were having issues with these effects, I have removed refraction shaders from them though setting buserefractionshader=0 may not create black boxes for them, but it certainly won't now.

The purpose of this mod is to allow Ati/SM2.0 card users to switch on AA (Anti-Aliasing) without suffering major slowdowns when summoning daedra, using drain spells or summoning mythic Dawn Armour, etc. This issue is known to affect the 9600, 9700, 9800, some x800 and x300 series cards.

Any other graphics cards displaying similar behaviour will probably be fixed with this mod too. Another objective is to achieve this with little visual degradation - other fixes such as the ini tweak; buserefractionshader = 0 create black boxes around the afore mentioned effects. This mod does not.

This has been achieved by editing the nif files and removing the command line calling this effect;

Edited files are as follows;

summondaedra.nif
drain.nif
bindmythicdawn.nif
soultrap.nif
reanimate.nif
turnundead.nif
sigilstone01.nif
sigilstonegreat01.nif
