About this mod
K ENB aims at pushing ENB Series features as far as they can go. Thanx to Boris Vorontsov, we're able to tailor Skyrim's visuals as we exactly want them. K ENB has come a long road, from exagerated effects to a more balanced touch, with full use of weathers indexing and Time Of Day separation.

DISCLAIMER
Welcome to K ENB update !
First of all, I want to deeply thank people who have been supporting me through all this time.
Then, I want to pay huge respect to Boris Vorontsov, ENB SERIES creator, for giving us the tools to tailor Skyrim as we want it to look like.
Boris has done an amazing job from the beginning, with an amazing dedication, so respect due !
K ENB has come a long road from sometimes exagerated effects and circumvoluted codes to a more balanced look, better coding,
and full use of weather and Time Of Day features.
I really hope you will enjoy this new version !
At last, rather than to the bottom of this page, I absolutely want to pay respect to some people without who K ENB wouldn't even exist :
Rudy102
For letting me use his weathers list and parts of his own files, and for being one of the most talented setups creator around.
Marty Mc Fly aka Pascal Gilcher
A code genius, and an amazing person that has always been nice and patient to me, spending hours explaining codes arcanes and tricks.

Buddy, adventurer, weathers addict. Thank you for the hours, the ideas, the work you suggested me.
And to ALL the ENB coders from this community, respect shall be due to all of them for their dedication !
PERFORMANCE
If you run into performance issues:
The vast majority of this ENB setup's variables is available in the GUI.
Just tweak them and tailor it to your tastes and rig !
ALSO, don't forget to edit the enblocal.ini wisely, since it intervenes a lot on final performance.
Main purpose of ENB SERIES is customisation, so just customise it !
I can't and won't make kind of universal setup that fits any rig and monitor.
INSTALLATION
Before installing:
Be SURE to get rid of ANY leftover from a previous ENB installation !
This step is absolutely NECESSARY !
STEP 1:
- Download latest ENB.
- Unzip it. Inside you will find two folders : "WrapperVersion" and "InjectorVersion".
- Copy only "d3d9.dll", "enbhost.exe", and "enblocal.ini" from "WrapperVersion" folder ( POSTING THE ENBSERIES BINARY FILES ON NEXUS SITES IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED ), into your Skyrim root directory .
STEP 2:
- Download my mod.
- Extract it.
- Select all files.
- Copy selected files into your Skyrim root directory.
STEP 3:
- Edit enblocal.ini into your Skyrim root directory, remember - everyone should adapt it to own hardware ! Enblocal.ini Guide
- Install - "Skyrim Particle Patch for ENB" - Skyrim LE version.
STEP 4:
- Edit enbconstants.fx in enbseries folder ! THIS STEP IS IMPORTANT ! Set your own game resolution and FoV.
WHAT'S IN ?
Hey, an ENB setup.
K ENB always uses latest ENB binary.
K ENB tries to push ENB Series features at their max, in order to ensure the best possible immersion.
And YES, before you ask, it's performance heavy, because all comes at a price.
Want to decrease its impact on your rig ? This is more than easy and actually requires 3 possible steps :
1/ Decrease SSAO scales and sampling range
2/ Decrease DoF Quality
3/ Decrease effects quality in enbseries.ini
So, what K ENB brings you is:
Full GUI access to tons of variables
Full (or almost) Time Of Day separation
Fully separated weathers and weathers-indexed effects in various shaders
Genuine SSAO / SSIL, pushed to its best
Highly customisable Depth Of Field, based on Marty Mc Fly's masterpiece
New codes, shaders, shader system
And much more than I could list !
And yes, the file is huge, because of the vast majority of 4K textures I'm using.
USERS SUPPORT
I can't really advice on what other mods to use or not.
To each his own textures packs, armors, weapons and all.
K ENB is based on Vanilla Skyrim and Relighting Skyrim without anything else that would intervene on image space.
It is compatible with anything, given the fact you'll be doing the necessary adjustments.
That being said, I personnaly use and highly recommend all textures done by these incredible modders:
Pfuscher
Winedave
johnskyrim
PERSONAL SUPPORT
Creating a mod and supporting it is VERY time-consuming and I need support to ensure you the best possible experience.
You can support me via Donations here, or via my Patreon , the choice is yours.
PERMISSIONS
My works are featuring other's work and my codes are still being developped.
As a consequence, I can't allow permission for any of my shaders and files.
Apologizes for this.
