At the moment the mod applies its own layer of post-processing and colour adjustment affects. Shadows look deeper and colours punch more.<\/p>\n<p>The mod also uses its own SSAO affect, which is significantly more resource hungry than Skyrim\u2019s default SSAO implementation. To maintain a steady framerate, the creator Boris Vorontsov recommends that users set &#8220;EnableAmbientOcclusion=false&#8221; in the enbseries.ini file. He also suggests turning off anisotropic filtering in the drivers because it dramatically decreases SSAI performance. Instead, set &#8220;ForceAnisotropicFiltering=true&#8221; in the enbseries.ini file.<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t like the mod\u2019s default settings you can tweak it to your liking. It is capable of modifying the brightness of HDR for clouds, stars, aurora, sun, moons, sun corona, sun light, ambient light, and texture gamma.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not happy with the default visuals on offer in Skyrim, or you just like the idea of toying with the graphics engine, then you can download the ENBSeries visual enhancement mod from Skyrim Nexus.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JhIfBNKZKyQ\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"437\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The FXAA Post Process Injector is another popular post-processing mod which enhances Skyrim\u2019s graphics.
