One I like to call:

Homeland

Dogstar: I have to agree. Gionight in particular makes the best portrait shots, IMO, by far. Settings aside just great composition all the time. I love others as well but it does stand out for me. Really like Unreal's environment shots for the same reason. I miss Fedorzzz though and think Trillville needs to finish his settings and get back to his cinematic shots as well

So many others but those 4 in particular have always been some of my favorites. Some enbs I actually like more but that is totally different set of skills to appreciate. I just love seeing what everyone does with the game and enb both (modders too for that matter).

Does anyone know how to set the LOD in the tex2Dlod HLSL function call? Changing the w value of the texture coordinate isn't doing a damn thing to adjust the LOD for me, and it's slowing down my sprite-based bokeh system.

I'm not generating mipmap levels in modern versions of the mod, so this feature is not working whatever you try (0.076 was last with lods, as i remember). As you understand, there are too many things required for such rendering, i don't know how to make all features available, except plugin system with handle to d3d device, but declare standart will be huge problem too.

Aww, that explains it. Oh well. I'll put this project on hold then.

I would literally send $100s through PayPal to have someone like Gio or Unreal send their settings, mod list, INI, nvidia inspector settings etc. I can dream but unfortunately that's about it. Most of the users on here are not willing to share their specific settings with a few exceptions such as prOPAs and Opethfeldt. Can't say I blame them as it can take hundreds of hours to get the right settings. We just have to witness their magic and ponder how they did it and offer awe and praise.

What? What are you talking about!

People who only post screens of their configs and NEVER share them are DICKS, pure and simple.

Boris CREATED enb. HE has chosen to SHARE it with all of us for FREE.

To then take HIS creation, modify it a little bit, and REFUSE to SHARE it with everyone else is a DICK move.

We had to deal with people like that back in the GTA IV enb community, and it sucked. They would always tease everyone with these incredible looking shots, but in the end no one else got a chance to try their configs (maybe because they didn't actually look all that great to begin with).

It doesn't cost anybody ANYTHING to share their config. It doesn't take away from the amount of work they put into it. It doesn't hurt them in any way. If you just want to gather envy and praise for your config, but never share it, then you are an asshole. Period.

I'm not talking about people who don't want to release their configs while they're still a WIP. That makes perfect sense to me ... though I do wonder if some of these configs will ever in fact be released. I can predict that some of them will still be saying the same thing a year from now: "It's a WIP." Better maybe to release your configs sooner, even though they're not "perfect" (which they never will be.) You can always release an updated version later, which lots of cool modders do all the time.

EDIT: By the way, just off the top of my head, among the people who post screens here, Dogstar, Kalicloa, IndigoNeko, T.A.Z., far237, DrSarcasmo and Superl3 have also kindly shared their configs. All are excellent and well worth trying and I am no doubt forgetting to mention many others.

@Cruncher
Yeah, it does look kind of weird now that you mention it. I suppose the problem is related to the very low ambient lighting I'm using right now. For the sake of variety, I wanted to test a config that would make silhouettes out everything, lol.

SecretSumo · 04 Oct 2012, 23:07

Trillville, mind if I inquire what the heck you're using to generate that realistic looking smoke? It looks awesome. Every ENB config I try seems to make smoke render terribly, brownish looking mess. You have the best looking smoke pillars I've seen.

IndigoNeko · 04 Oct 2012, 23:21

That's a good question. I don't know of any settings in the enbseries.ini file that directly control smoke intensity. Just fire, light sprite, and volumetric fog. Trillville, what ARE you using to get smoke to look like that? Is it just a smoke texture?

Gionight · 04 Oct 2012, 23:35

trillville>>>
Thanks man glad you enjoyed my last post, loving your pics above and I think low ambient is the main factor which makes your shots so unique and beautiful.

CruNcher>>>
Yes, it was me,,, you got me

I have thought maybe we all need to support each other, don't we?

Lauren>>>
Thanks mate , but you need almost 11Gb of textures with other mods to make it look that way

DogStar>>>
Thank you my friend but you are as always wrong , I will be honest, your pics and sense of camera one of the best here and looks much better then some soulless pics posted very often. Big but dead anime eyes combined with naked skin won't make you shots look better or even environment pics with FOV set to 100, you need to have some other things like style, artistic vision, sense of camera etc, which you defiantly have.

kalicola>>>
Thanks buddy, it was taken with the same enbeffect.fx which was used in my Black&White shots, interior lighting, bloom with reflections can look almost like real, that was the reason I am choosing it to make interior portrait shots and then desaturated it with PS.

SecretSumo>>>
Thank you my friend glad you understand and support my decisions, I million times wrote here why I will never release anything Skyrim related and it has nothing to do with unwillingness to share ENB presets with others.
The only thing I really love to do is to take a shots and post it to this dedicated to Skyrim's screenshots thread , you won't find my posts in other topics .

david-69>>>
Thank you my friend

haints>>>
It was obviously addressed to me, how kind of you.
Then what the Fuck are you doing here? besides of trolling and begging others settings, it's a screenshot thread so please leave us and beg and troll somewhere else, me and I am sure majority of us really don't want to see such a rude and worthless "person" here.
