ENBSeries

The Elder Scrolls Skyrim (TES Skyrim, Скурим Свитки)

Graphic mod ENBSeries 0.122
Performance optimized as previous, but have various other changes and fixes. Parallax fix now works without specular bug. Added several parameters to control ssao calculations and mixing type, restored it's quality and modified math (in 0.121 was only quality=2 active), this is still not new ssao code.

EDIT:
Interior scenes mostly don't have ambient lighting big enough to decrease it with ssao effect, this is correct computation actually. Because i expected that proper isn't better for users, did AOMixingType parameter, it's 0 and 1 value acting properly, but affecting only ambient color of scene (like skylighting effect). 0 also use color factor to decrease effect on snow and other bright surfaces, it's the only difference between 0 and 1 mode. 2 and 3 do modulation with ssao like other games do (non realistic crap), but value 2 is with color factor for bright textures and 3 is not.
Valid AOMixingType values are 0, 1, 2, 3.
Valid AOMixingType values are 0, 1.
Btw, ssao fading in fog is changed a lot, better to set these distances to 1, as ssao much less visible in fog now.

Thanks, will be testing later tonight. What are the valid parameters for the new SSAO variables?

It's indeed probably a good time to do some other modding projects for a change, you've been working on Skyrim like crazy recently, and although you've been making incredible progress as far as quality and perfomance is considered, it's always a good idea to take little breaks every now and then to regain strength and keep things interesting.

The day and night sky are barely visible now with the new .dll - anyone else having sky issues?

*edit* My problem is due to having to setting forcefakevideocard to true.

It seems that SSAO isn't working on interiors.

I made a comparison with v0.121, here are the screenshots:

v0.121 beta




v0.122

Getting the same thing here - just completely disabling SSAO for me.

Updated first post as reply regarding ssao. Set value 2 or 3 then.

obsoleteArioch:
Post your enbseries.ini file, may be some combination of turned on effects do changes to the sky.

I also have the problem with the sky. With the 0.122 the sky is duller/darker and the clouds have become invisible.


SSAO settings

ENB 0.121;

[SSAO_SSIL]
UseIndirectLighting=true
UseComplexIndirectLighting=true

FilterQuality=1
SamplingQuality=1
SamplingRange=0.3

FadeFogRangeDay=7.0
FadeFogRangeNight=7.0
FadeFogRangeInterior=7.0

SizeScale=0.35
SourceTexturesScale=0.35

AOAmount=1.0
ILAmount=4.0

ENB 0.122;

The same settings, but with the new codes like this;

AOMixingType=0
AOIntensity=2.0 -- (I've also tested 1.0, 0.0, same problem with sky)
AOType=0

ENB 0.121


ENB 0.122 AOIntensity=2.0


ENB 0.122 AOIntensity=0.0



Haven't tested it out more than that scene and making some quick edits to the new code settings.

Hm, probably i forgot in mixing code something. Will see...

--JawZ--

Your sky problem is similar to mine. Please check a night scene - are your stars and moon barely visible also like mine is?

Also, After setting the following in my .ini, SSAO is working for me:

AOType=1
AOMixingType=3

Yep, the entire sky is faded out 24/7.

It's like you we're using really low values of all the sky codes in the enbseries.ini file.


The SSAO in it self is working fine for me, it just corrupts the sky for me, nothing else. Atleast that's the only thing I have noticed as of yet.
