[BannedUserGaming]

The new video I find to be miles different from this, I'm so glad this video was made to show me the errors I had made.

[Costerguy1234556]

It looks better then the other ENB mod. The other one was just a bunch of bloom.

[SirCrest]

Actually, update, turns out the files I used in this didn't even contain the FXAA. Remaking a new one.

[GR3B3N]

Outdoors looks better in vanilla, indoors and night - with mods

[alecinsel]

Brightness llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

[anzonix]

Real is brown.

[hassanselim0]

I think the sky it a bit too bright, if it stays that bright wherever you look then it's not good, but it's ok if it darkens when you look directly at it, kind of like the auto-exposure in digital cameras.

[SirCrest]

Kind of an odd situation, BANNED USER says he already updated it to fix the problems. I guess I'll go redo it with the new results and upload a V2.

[kravmaga99]

Some of these look really nice, while others look very bad.

[RathaDiablo]

84fps!? you must have a legendary gaming computer!.

[TheRealBarnez]

Why is it "BANNED"?

[The3nddd]

@TheRealBarnez its not "banned" the guy that made this mod named it "banned".

[TheRealBarnez]

@The3nddd Oh xD. Well that's confusing.

[Decodeish1]

vanilla looks better exept for the stars IMO

[chicawazzzzzzza]

i think i like vanilla skyrim lighting better

[emomotorgeek]

a lot of scenes are a bit to washed out imo

[CutePandz]

What FOV are you running this at? And do you have any other mods that make the game look more nice like texture resolution mods and such.

[ljagodz]

If you can respond, is there a huge difference between 8 GB vs. 16 GB of ram?

[DudeOfManyNames]

@ljagodz I couldn't imagine a situation where you would need 16 GB of ram, at least not as a gamer. 8 GB is a great sweet spot I feel and anything over that is overkill unless your crazy into video editing or running all your applications at once (lol)

[ljagodz]

@DudeOfManyNames Haha, alright, thanks man.

[TheArtjom2033]

I like the atmosphere of the vanilla game more. Anyways, what's the name of the song? Is it one of the Skyrim soundtrack?

[TraxtoInutil]

I'd like to know as well, please, anyone?

[Tanker940]

Would love to see more videos like this, quality content right here.

[Nomeninja2]

That's all pretty and whatnot, but I still am not a supporter of Skyrim. the textures are just images...not like omg it's like they actually put rocks in.

[mpb813]

Not a fan of this. While Vanilla Skyrim's lighting leaves a lot to be desired, the atmosphere makes sense for a cold desolate landscape. This mod really takes away from that.

[imDwragon]

Too much saturation. Doesn't have the right atmosphere of the cold north.

[Gunbardo]

The only thing this mod excels at is making the grass look more awesome and nothing else... It's either awfully bright or awfully dark....

[McDevy]

Little too much bloom and contrast boost for my liking. Vanilla still looks very nice.

[Coollok100]

@McDevy I agree, sometimes it looks unrealistic, killing the atmosphere, but it sometimes does look better

[Criterion515]

Some scenes it's nice, others not so much. For example, I love the way the night sky looked, but in other scenes it totally washed out the clouds. In the dark town scene it became WAY too dark, completely unrealistic. Look in the sky.. there's a huge planet there shining down. It's not gonna be gloomy dark like that. It's gonna be way brighter than a full moon in RL, and that's pretty bright. It's cool to play with shaders, but understand more about environment lighting please.

[SirCrest]

@Criterion515 Comment on the mod page if you're considering giving feedback, I'm merely doing a reference video showing mod in action. If it's not obvious, I didn't make this.

[bloodsuckern]

@SirCrest was pretty obvious

[crazychilidog]

It's a bit over the top with saturation. While I can understand skyrim being dark, this mod kind of captures all the color that the game can hold...if you covered it in neon goop.

[LazureusFalcone]

The glowing grass and the bloom cranked up to 11 kills the mood for me with this mod. I'm going to have to skip it.

[GermanGTD65]

Looks absolutely beautiful (a little artificial like cabbage said), but that FPS hit makes me want to look away. My little 6870s would melt!

[Ragerunner2020]

I think the night/dark parts are nice but i feel like the light ones are way to bright. Still a nice mod overall tho.

[martinthew]

Strange, this mod reminds me of Oblivion.

I miss Oblivion.

[GlamEye]

@martinthew O_o it's not like oblivion's gone anywhere you can still play it :/

[martinthew]

@GlamEye Maybe you can, but my old PC broke down, and my PS3's with my brother. Too poor to afford anything new. Maybe next Christmas.

[GlamEye]

@martinthew That sucks... hope you get your system back sooner than you expect ;(

[rockcabbage]

Makes everything look way to artificial, in my opinion. I found this one mod, no clue what it's called, but it's the best ENB I've ever seen, it adds lens flare and a perfect balance to everything, and makes the game almost look hyper-real at times, with minimal FPS damage.

[1800getownd]

Ifuckinglovethisgame.

[watermelonpizza]

hmm mixed results imo. At night the mod really makes the sky look better, but it seems to wash out the sky in the day. At some places like the stairs it makes it too dark, though the water in the day looks better. Things up close also do look better too.

Overall a nice mod but I'm sure they can change the lighting a little bit

[leoleo1035]

The vanilla looks too moody, and blurry. Why developers started to think that having a blurry game = good?

[LazureusFalcone]

@leoleo1035 Because they had to develop for the Xbox 360 and got lazy with the textures and UI when working on the PC version.

[GunivXyrgoon]

SO BLOOMY

[BannedUserGaming]

Best comparison video I have ever seen, and that's not just because I made the mod. SirCrest is a master of video editing and is very dedicated to his work. Asked me for input the whole way, he's a true bro.

[MegisticSpirit]

@BannedUserGaming 2:42 BANNED Lighting mode - Look at the water on the left down corner, something is wrong with the textures, I think this is a bug you should fix...

I don't play Skyrim, but now, I think I should give it a try, so many people play that now, and such amazing graphics, I think I've got to check it out sometime... Anyway, amazing mode! Keep the good work!

[bloodsuckern]

@BannedUserGaming call the mod BANNED & Summer time coming to skyrim

[OLKshveet]

oh looking nice, but the fps drop is a bit much just to play the game, still over 30 but thats on your system.

[AirsoftCentralTV]

third

[ThoseBananaZ]

Wow, that looks amazing. Now if I could only get a decent PC so that I could install that all..
