About this mod
This is a small ENB preset for laptop-users and people with low-end rigs that cant afford using demanding ENBs like Kountervibe. I only lost 4-6 fps using this ENB on my Laptop.

VERSION 3 IS OUT!!
I finally fixed the darkness issue!! I also adjusted the colors, sun and shadows, the lights and completely rebuilt the enb. This is closer to the cold version of version 2, so if you didnt like that, you should not use version 3, although I highly recommend using the new version! I just dont like the old look any more. It is also still compatible with CoT ad ELFX, but there are some minor issues with the cloud color when using CoT, nothing too big really, they just are a bit yellowish during the sunrise. Please dont forget to read the whole description! Be sure to check out all recommended mods to achieve the best looks possible!
DESCRIPTION
My laptop is not meant for gaming, but it still handles vanilla Skyrim quite easily. But once i saw the first videos with ENB mods installed, i just wanted my game to look like that. So i installed an ENB, went int my game and - boom! Looking absolutely FANTASTIC, but... well. 8 fps. So i looked for performance-friendly presets, but most of them either didnt look good (in my opinion) or were still to demanding. So i just downloaded ENBseries ad started tweaking myself. And well... thats what came out. Its not perfect, but since i like it i thought that ill just share it with you.
This preset is meant for people with Laptops or low-end PCs. The Performance hit is minimal, but you will still lose about 2-5 frames, depending on your machine. If you already play at 20 fps, you shouldnt use this. But if you are at anything over 35 fps, your game should still be playable. People with high-end rigs might not notice any drop higher than one frame at all.
While this preset greatly improves shadows and colors and adds stuff like godrays, please keep in mind that its a performance-friendly ENB and does not contain fancy effects like AO or DoF. It also does not add cinematic effects like letterbox or lens flare. But youre free to just hit Shift+Enter ingame and tweak it to your liking. I already configured Reflection,AO and DoF to fit this enb, so just can just turn those on if your pc can hande it.
INSTALLATION
Always backup your game Folder before installing any mod! Im not responsible if you fuck up your game.
1. Download ENBseries 0.279 (or latest one) from enbdev.com
2. Extract d3d9.dll and enbhost.exe from the "Wrapper Version" Folder to your Skyrim Directory (usually C:/Program Files/steam/steamapps/common/skyrim)
3. Extract ALL the files from the downloaded Folder (from the subfolder) into your Skyrim Directory. Overwrite everything
You should be done!
If you are not sure how to install an ENB watch some tutorials on YouTube.
If you get glowing water in the night, download the ENB Particle Patch by Mindflux.
I highly recommend the Realistic Sun for Climates of Tamriel and Vanilla mod by prod80. Be sure to download the ENB Edition!
RECOMMENDED MODS:
-Vivid Weathers - a complete Weather and Visual overhaul for Skyrim by Mangaclub and Kesta
i just like this mod so much more than CoT, and HENB 3.1 is also designed to be used together with this mod
-Enhanced Lights and FX by anamorfus
you really shouldnt use my enb without ELFX, it just makes the interiors so much better
-Brighter Lights by alcohol11
I noticed that the fires/torches in dungeons etc can be pretty unrealistically dark sometimes, concerning their Illumination radius... this small but great mod fixes that.
