Installation

1) First check if you have installed the Requirements

2) Download the latest ENB Binaries from the official page of ENB. (This ENB was made with v.437)

3) Open the WrapperVersion folder of the binaries and take ONLY d3d11.dll and d3dcompiler_46e.dll, then drag and drop them into the Skyrim root directional.
    (There where the SkyrimSE.exe is)

4) Download my ENB files from this page and place them in the same directory as you did for the binaries in step 2. (There where the SkyrimSE.exe is)

5) You can start play now! :)

(If you want the Reshade Preset from the file section on top, you need to download Reshade
, then run it, select SkyrimSE.exe as the application to run

then pick dx11 as the runtime and pick the shader bundles StandartEffects, SweetFX and Legacy Standart Effects.

Only pick the shaders Curves, Clarity and Ambient Light from it, disable the rest. Download the Reshade Preset from here and put it in the same folder 

as you did for the ENB. Ingame select my Preset in the menu by pressing Pos1 and on the tab from the top to pick the preset.)
