    Feel free to join my discord: Ebony Vibes

    Please keep the comment section friendly and respectful. Thank you!


    If you have any questions about installation, feel free to ask. But I will refer to the main description page first. If you haven't done those steps, then do them before asking me anything. If there's anything unclear about the description, I'll help. This saves me a lot of time. Thanks for understanding!

    Some things to note;

    • Please read the main description page to read all the instructions
    • Please note that you DO NOT want to install Rudy ENB, but ONLY the required files. If using this ENB. Unless you use that MO2 plugin that can switch ENBs

    ENB Keys:

    • Open the ENB with the END key on your keyboard
    • Turn ENB off and on using the - key on the numpad on your keyboard
    • Show FPS using the * key on the numpad on your keyboard
    • Switch Depth of Field on and off using the DELETE key on your keyboard
    • You can also change the key combinations in the top left window and set it to your liking. This is just how I prefer it. Obviously this preference is not a universal thing.

    I will take a little break. I have the idea to make a NAT III version, but that will take some time. Anyway, hope you enjoy this version!

    And as always, happy modding

    All of this is made possible by Adys. A talented coder who made these shaders work together beautifully. He is the backbone of this machine. I simply balanced the colors and created it's style. I am greatfull he provided these shaders. He granted me the permission to upload it on my own. Thank you Adys.

    For now, cus I have taken a break from the modding community; I apologise for not releasing the update as I promised. Unfortunately, due to irl events and the release of the NAT3 version ... I completely neglected this version. I do have an update ready, but I have no time and energy to propperly showcase the updates and release the update as of yet. I cant promise anything, but I will try to officially release an Obsidian update in Januari.

    Happy modding!

    I just want to add my voice to the chorus of "THANK YOU."  As a not-really-very-advanced modder, I appreciate more than I could say the notes under the spoilers. It's amazing how well things worked when they were in the right order - but that's not always apparent to someone who spends way more time playing than modding!  It looks beautiful, it works with my favorite weather, and there are options! What more could a girl ask for :)

    I love this ENB, really enjoy the aesthetic. However, I'm having problems getting night vision to work. I can tell that it's activating (Predator Vision works, but doesn't get any brighter).

    I'd love to check on Discord, but the link on the page is outdated. I adjusted the 3 nightvision settings in enbeffects, and didn't see much of a difference. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Loving this, stumbled upon it when I realized Rudy ENB looked really off in Saints and Seducers Extended Cut and then I found this in the requirements saying it supports it. Looks awesome and I'm glad you keep it so up to date. Can use the dynamic cubemap stuff now without it looking off! Best part is it was super easy to install because I was already running Rudy ENB + Obsidian weathers and all I had to change was the enb files.

    I used Rudy ENB (w/ Obsidian) for years now, and I've never switched to something else. But this, this ENB touches realism, fantasy and a subtle 'coldness' in its atmosphere. This is what I'm looking for! Amazing work MechPanda!

    Edit: Yeah, I kinda share your sentiment about Azurite feeling kind of incomplete for now.

    Just found this and I'm really digging it. Is there a way to make interiors darker without fiddling with all the environment values? Thanks!

      if you want a reference for a feature, the PiCho ENB has an option for adjusting interior and exteriors generally. No pressure though.

      This ENB has that option too. Every ENB has that. It's under enbeffect in the middle tab where you can adjust things to your liking. It's just a different shader setup :) However, I just thought I saved you the hassle cus of a new update coming soon ^^ Next to that, you can join my discord as mentioned in the sticky. There I'll host pre-releases and all the dev I'm working on ^^

      Yes I know every enb has that, but I guess it’s just done in a nice ux way in that example. Just my thoughts anyway. 

      I’ll just sit back and eagerly await the update. Good work.

    Ebony ENB has far and away been my favorite aesthetic for this game hands down since the original, but I always find myself returning to Azurite Weathers. Do you have any plans on making a preset for Azurite? It would likely be so phenomenal that I'd actually stop modding and finally play the damn game again lol. Also, do you perhaps have an updated link to the Ebony Vibes Discord, I'd love to check it out. You're work is astoundingly beautiful, thank you!

      Thank you so much! But I have no plans for Azurite Weathers cus it feels incomplete. Especially for rain storms. However, I do almost have a NAT3 version ready.

      I'll update the discord link soon :)

      But here is a link for now https://discord.com/invite/GY525qzX

      I understand, thank you! And I definitely can see this aesthetic being elevated even further with NAT3, can’t wait!

    would this be compatible with the Gates To Sovngarde collection?

      Yes. You just need to follow the install instructions and just to be safe; disable community shaders. Wouldnt do any harm if you keep it on, but you wont get CS its effects as ENB will take all them over.

    Loved the few minutes of graphic bliss I could witness with my potato GTX 1050Ti, this is the kind of aesthetic that justifies the purchase of a higher spec gaming rig.

      Agreed.  This preset (and others like Picta) show the limitations of CS.
