I'm not quite sure what your "small internal tweaks" have been in this version, but this is by far the most stable, crash-free, highest fps release of your fixes yet for my computer. Performance has been stellar, even with the new effects you've added in the last few builds.

The water "fake reflect" is pretty darn subtle, and I barely noticed it when I went in shallow water. It does look pretty darn nice though, even if it is minor!

Great work, Borris. You've really salvaged the visuals in Skyrim in a way no one has ever done with a game before.

Well I've played with this for awhile and everything looks great. As stated above, the self reflection is very subtle but a nice touch. Performance is about the same as with 0.229, so very good! I'll keep my eyes out for other things. I'm still looking forward to when you have a chance to look at getting Temporal AA working with the new helper.dll to reduce/eliminate ghosting :) That would make my week whenever it comes! Not to mention whatever else you have up your sleeve. Awhile back I was beginning to think we were coming very close to a final version for Skyrim... and then you broke all my expectations and now I have no idea when or if a final version will come. You're a genius, Boris!

No bugs so far, as said before self-reflections are a nice addition.

Ahhh wait that Water self reflection oops

Could somebody show Water Self Reflection working i see no difference ?

Maybe in Motion it is hardly visible to capture you need the exact frame to see the difference like on Boris pictures the white intensity change of the reflection (bouncing light) ?

Water disabled

Water enabled with Self Reflection

Hi!

I updated my drivers and did this went around lots. its looking great for me. didnt find any problems or anything.

I did come back to skyriming recently with jumping from version 0155 to 0229 which was a huge improvement that left me speechless.

The performance is absolutely phenomenal! It's the first time I don't notice a performance difference between having the ENB turned on or off. Kudos to you, Boris. I am having one issue though. Yesterday I was using the latest Opethfeldt beta ENB with the .229 ENB everything looked perfect but today when I replaced it with the .231 files I no longer get interior lighting or at night time. I tried replacing the .231 files with the .229 and the lighting still didn't work. Any idea what the issue might be? I'm sure it's something simple that I'm missing. BTW I'm using the 327.23 WHQL drivers from NVIDIA. What is the best version of the drivers I should be using? Thanks.

UPDATE: I trashed my ini files let the game generate new ones and everything works great now. Performance is still blazingly fast.
