FAQ
"How do I open the ENB menu?"
Press the "Shift + Enter" key on your keyboard.

Can I change Warm or Cold preset on the fly?”
Of course you can. Open the ENB menu. In the Shaders window, click on “ENBEFFECTPOSTPASS.fx”.
There you can choose the preset you want by changing the technique used.

Days, nights and/or interiors are too dark/bright. How do I fix this?”
You can regulate the brightness of days, nights and interiors very easily in “ENBEFFECT.fx”, in the Shaders window of the ENB menu.
From there you can regulate Haze ENB to work with any weather and lighting mod combination.

"How do I disable the letterbox (black bars)?"
You must open the ENB menu. In the Shaders window, click on “ENBEFFECTPOSTPASS”.
There you can disable the Letterbox Bars.

"How do I disable the DOF (Depth of Field) if I need the extra FPS?"
Press “Delete” key on your keyboard.

"I don't like the lens effect. How can I fix this?"
If you don't like the Haze Lens effect, you can change to a simpler one by opening the ENB menu.
On the "Shader parameters"window, click on "ENBLENS.fx", and use the "Skyrim Mod Lens" technique instead.
If you don't like that either, you can disable "EnableLens" on the "enbseries.ini" window completely.


*Remember to click “Save Configuration” for your changes to stay permanent.
