The goal is to balance realism with gameplay.

If you are having issues with the fire, please consult this FAQ from Embers XD.
How to make the flames more or less intense and adjust flame color?
Increasing the
intensity
related parameters in the [FIRE]
category of enbseries.ini will make the flames more intense, while reducing them will have an opposite effect. The curve
parameters work like gamma control. Increasing the curve tends to make the flames more red and concentrated, while decreasing will make the
flames more yellow. Be aware that increasing the curve also easily
results in the flames blowing out especially with high amount of bloom.
For reference, here's how mine are set at the moment:
[FIRE]
IgnoreWeatherSystem=true
IntensityDawn=1.0
IntensitySunrise=1.0
IntensityDay=1.0
IntensitySunset=1.0
IntensityDusk=1.0
IntensityNight=1.0
IntensityInteriorDay=1.5
IntensityInteriorNight=1.5
CurveDawn=1.0
CurveSunrise=1.0
CurveDay=1.0
CurveSunset=1.0
CurveDusk=1.0
CurveNight=1.0
CurveInteriorDay=1.0
CurveInteriorNight=1.0
Embers look overly bright or dull. How to adjust the intensity of the glow?
Adjust the intensity and curve parameters in the
[WINDOWLIGHT]
category. Like with flames, increasing the intensity
related parameters will make the embers brighter, while reducing them will have an opposite effect. Increasing and decreasing the
curve
parameters will give the glow more or less a red tint. For reference, here's how mine are set at the moment:[WINDOWLIGHT]
IgnoreWeatherSystem=true
IntensityDawn=4.0
IntensitySunrise=4.0
IntensityDay=4.0
IntensitySunset=4.0
IntensityDusk=4.0
IntensityNight=4.0
IntensityInteriorDay=2.0
IntensityInteriorNight=2.0
CurveDawn=1.0
CurveSunrise=1.0
CurveDay=1.0
CurveSunset=1.0
CurveDusk=1.0
CurveNight=1.0
CurveInteriorDay=1.0
CurveInteriorNight=1.0
