Q: How do I open the ENB menu?
Q: I have black bars at the top and bottom of the screen and don't like it. How do I disable it?
You can also disable other effects like Grain, Vignette and CA if you dont like that kind of stuff.
Q: My image is too dark/bright at interiors/exteriors/night etc...?
Q: What is that droplet like effect on my screen?
under "Enable Lens"
Q: What is that colored tint to my screen?
to change the LUT or disable it.
Q: The Depth of Field is too strong / too weak?
Q: How do I deactivate "Depth of Field"?
Q: The shadows on my character do not look good?
SourceTexturesScale=0.5 in enbseries.ini to higher values, maximum 1.0.
ATTENTION! The FPS drop is like a punch in the balls. Therefore, higher values should only be used for screenshots.
Q: How do I set up the NIGHT EYE AMPLIFIER e.g. for Predator Vision?
Now set in the tab ENBEFFECT.FX under NIGHT EYE AMPLIFIER the values at "Detect [5].w low" one value lower than shown in the upper menu. For "Detect [5].w high", do the exact opposite, setting a value higher than the one displayed under Constants. In our case 0.09805. Don't forget to check NightEyeAmp: Enable. That's it.
Q: I have heavily customized my installation of eVx and want to update to a new version.
How can I keep my settings?
Then run the update as described on this page.
Finally, from your previously saved eVx installation, replace only all included INI files (in which the settings you made are stored) of the current installation. If you use customized LUTs, copy them back as well.
Files from/to "game directory":
Files from/to "enbseries" folder:
To get the same results as in the screenshots, Dolomite Weathers is highly recommended, as the main weather mod.
1. Install the required mods
Install ENB Helper SE
Install ENB Light
Install Enhanced Lights and FX
!!! IMPORTANT !!!

Install Dolomite Weathers
2. Prepare your INI files
OPTION A
Use my INI files
Download my personal INI files from files section of this Nexus page.
Overwrite your own INI files with my files.
Vortex users: go to [Documents> My games> Skyrim Special Edition]
Mod Organizer 2 users: go to [ . . . Mod Organizer2 > Profiles > Default]
OPTION B
Edit your existing INI files
Vortex users: go to [Documents> My games> Skyrim Special Edition> Skyrimprefs.ini]
Mod Organizer 2 users: go to [ . . . Mod Organizer2 > Profiles > Default > Skyrimprefs.ini]
find the following lines, set and save:
[Display]
fGamma=1.0000
bTreesReceiveShadows=1
bDrawLandShadows=1
bShadowsOnGrass=1
(If you notice weird shadows on grass, depending on your grass mod, change to 0)
bIBLFEnable=0
(VERY IMPORTANT!!!! You'll have lens flare problems if this line is set to 1)
bSAO_CS_Enable=0
bSAOEnable=0
bIndEnable=0
fDynamicDOFBlurMultiplier=0.0000
(This setting is strongly recommended!
It disables the ingame Depth of Field which is not needed because the ENB comes with its own)
[Imagespace]
bLensFlare=1
bDoDepthOfField=1
(Under water is clear if this line is set to 0)
If you don't have some of the lines above in your Skyrimprefs.ini,
you can copy/paste them into the file.
