    My first ENB preset so feedback is very welcome!

    +++++++++++++++

    In the works:
    - general balancing and improvements

    Future stuff:
    - researching potential patches for other popular lighting mods
    - researching potential versions for other popular weather mods
    - gathering updated screenshots
    - as I enjoy my playthrough, seeing if I need to use weather.ini for sections of the game I haven't been to yet.

    +++++++++++++++

    An early version of Lux patch is out.

    I am certain it needs more work, so please let me know if you find anything off with it or if you have any feedback in general on it.

    Does anyone else get white clouds during heavy rains? They are distracting but don't seem to be easily fixable.

    I dont know if this is a thing or not but i just found out that when i go inside a building, the ENB Deactivates so i have to use Shift+F12 to switch from exterior to interior and vice versa when i go outside. First ENB i have come across that ever done this unless its not meant to do that. Nice ENB overall though and not a performance hog either.

      Hmm, that is odd. It is not supposed to do that at all and I have never seen it do that. I'll take a look tonight and see if I can repro this. Are you using Lux patch or not?

      Also, glad you like it!

      That's definitely not part of this ENB, at least it doesn't happen on my end.

    I just tested with NATKV for weather + Lux + Lux Orbis and it looks great!

    Finally the ENB I was waiting for, thank you!

    ENDORSED !

      Thank you so much! You just made my day :)

      Would you mind sharing some screenshots? I'd love to see how it looks with your mod setup! No rush, of course! Just if you feel like grabbing any shots while enjoying your playthrough :)

      Also, let me know if you come across anything that feels off with your weather mod and I'll look into making a version for it specifically.

      Thank you for your message.
      I'll make you some screenshots so you can see what it looks like.
      The only thing I would like to change is the color of the water, it's too flashy (I will make a screenshot so you can see)
      But otherwise, thank you again, it looks great!

      (For information, i use Water for ENB for my water mod)

      Awesome, thanks!

      Hmm, I use Water for ENB (Seasons of Skyrim) too and tend to keep things on the darker side. I wonder if it needs adjustment for that specific weather mod. Let me know if you notice anything else that feels off and I will look into making a new patch/version.

      I just reinstalled Water for ENB, and it finally came from the color I had chosen before the installation of your ENB (Mineral), now it is better ^^
      (I just added 2 or 3 images, I'll add more later)

      Ah, glad to hear the water is better!

      It does look pretty good right out of the box in those screenshots! Would you link me the exact weather mod you are using? Want to make sure I name it right before I okay the screenshots.

      It's a modified version of NAT Weather : TKV6

      It is unfortunately not currently available on the nexus, but can be found on Reddit. :)

      I've been thinking about trying Lux for interior, guess now is a good time to try :D 

      I'll try it out later today.

      Seems to work. The areas away from lights are a bit too dark for my taste, but not sure if that is Lux or if I messed something up with the install :D

      If you give it a try, feel free to share some screenshots!

      Sorry for the late reply! But yes the point lighting is a bit too on the low side, you could edit the weather's INI to adjust the Point Lighting Curve and general lighting curve, Lux is *very* dark by default unless the ENB adjusts the point lighting on ENB.

      Oh shoot, what a madlad, you actually delivered.

      I'll try and see if anything looks odd, must've taken AGES to configure all those weather inis to fit Lux, good work dude.

    Love it! Though the performance got worse with the latest update (at least on my end), my PC is garbage but even so, with the 0.5.2 update i was getting solid 40 fps with it, and with the latest i've been getting less than 30 in most places :/

      So happy to hear you love it!!

      Hmm, I bet that's from McFly's Depth of Field. I forgot the .fx file in 0.5.2 and now it is in 0.5.3 :D

      You could try turning off DoF in the ENB in-game menu (in the +Effect section), then use Skyrim's vanilla DoF instead. Let me know if this helps, so if not I can figure out where the fps hit is coming from.

      Thank you for the heads up!

      You can also try and disable the water reflections effect. That might be new as of 0.5.3, but I don't remember exactly when I added it :D

      Excellent! Let me know how it goes. I want to make sure it's not an accident on my part, and if not I'd like to make a lightweight performance version for all the potato homies :D

      How are you, I would tell you to deactivate the SSAO, since it is what most affects the performance in an ENB. I have done it and from having 30 FPS, it has raised me to almost a stable 55 FPS.

      This will definitely save you frames :) However, IMHO, it's at the cost of a fairly large hit to overall visual quality and aesthetic. SSAO has been turned on since v0.5.0, so if the new FPS hit is from updating to v0.5.3, the SSAO isn't necessarily cleancloud's problem.

      Ok, latest update did it! Thanks!
      Fortunately, didn't have to change anything, out of the box i'm getting again great performance with it~ 
      Once again, thanks for the dealing with me :P

      Ah! Excellent! 
      It's my pleasure to try and help, and no big deal at all. I was just sad to hear you were having issues. So glad to hear it's working for you again! I probably accidentally turned on some feature or something with the last version :D

    Hi, i love your ENB, its incredibly awesome, but i have a little problem. I am unable to get the DoF to work. Apparently it is activated in the options and I even have the vanilla DoF deactivated, but it still does not work no matter how "activated" it is in the configuration. I would really appreciate if someone could give me a cable. Thanks for this amazing ENB.

      Hmm, are you using the latest version (v0.6.0) and have the enbdepthoffield.fx in the same folder as Skyrim.exe?

      It has not helped me, but thank you very much for the help. I confirm that I only have this problem with your ENB, since right now I have Silent Horizons ENB installed and the DoF works perfectly. Maybe it's a bug from Marty's DoF. Greetings and again, thank you very much

      Do you have lingering files from the other ENB? Looks like the DoF .fx is in a different file structure than mine so maybe you have two conflicting files?

      Before installing Silent Horizons ENB I have made sure to remove all relevant files from your ENB, so I doubt it is due to conflicting files. I don't know what is causing the DoF of your ENB not to load, but it is rare that it only happens to me with yours. I guess it will be black magic from Skyrim xD
