ENBSeries

The Elder Scrolls Skyrim (TES Skyrim, Скурим свитки)

Graphic mod ENBSeries / patch ENBoost 0.366

Added distant shadow effect which is similar to detailed shadow, but applied to big distances.

Thanks for another amazing update

Only one thing, after a quick test, I noticed that the distant shadows don't blend properly with the enviroment fog :

Distant shadows on

Distant shadows off

Weird, works fine for me. Maybe you have sky mod installed of some kind? I'm using it's tranform matrix to compute fade distance in fog to revert fog code.

Boris you are like Santa Claus this year. Very nice early Christmas Present. Another fantastic addition, although I'm not playing LE anymore.
You are the man. Can't wait for further addons for the extra light.

Indeed I'm using JawZ's "Smooth Sky mesh" : https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/88042 and CoT. I need to check this.

Try without, is issue occur?

This mesh has no influence on it.

No weather mods, no custom sky mesh, Merryfair Farm near Riften, foggy weather, sunset :



and the distant shadows affect also some windows, the same place at night :

distant shadows on

distant shadows off


and one more thing, something strange happens when I turn off, in the effects section, the mist effect.

I know about windows problem and tried to fix it, but its very difficult because windows are drawed as transparent fire class particle. Mist maybe because you didnt save and applied changes? And i definetly cant see the bug myself and the code to remove fog is exactly reverse of algorithm which apply fog. I dont know, maybe some other mod add problems or effect combination. Did you try turn off everything, except distant shadows?

I found the cause. FogColorFilter in the Enviroment section, if I change it, and default is white, this bug becomes noticeable.

And that bug with mist, if I turn it off (without save and apply changes), my monitor displays only a red color, it's strange.

Pure awesomeness! Boris, distant shadows is the best ENB-feature, ever. Distant objects blend much better and of course look much better. I hope you will find a way to add this to Skyrim SE and Skyrim VR.
