I also noticed this, now that I know someone else hit it I tried to find out why.Also any ENB after 266 gives me stuttering when i turn the camera
I deleted all of my enb-related files from the skyrim directory and installed 277 wrapper from scratch. To narrow it down I disabled effects. The only changes from the defaults are below:
Code: Select all
enbseries.ini
UseOriginalPostProcessing=true
UseOriginalObjectsProcessing=true
enblocal.ini
VideoMemorySizeMb=4096
My GPU is Nvidia GTX 670 (2GB), I have 16GB of system memory, OS is Windows 7 x64
All testing at "coc guardianstones" when at main menu.
vram is full according to the skyrim performance monitor and GPU-Z. The memory reported in "windows task manager" is as follows:
enb 277: TESV.exe - 851MB, enbhost.exe - 2160MB, system 6.35GB
enb 264: TESV.exe - 855MB, enbhost.exe - 2199MB, system 7.65GB
One nice thing is that the system memory use is quite a bit lower with the newer version, but I don't think that matters in my case.
Even with the 264 enb I got stutter when turning around (swapping textures in/out? I don't know) but with the more recent ENBs like 277 it’s considerably worse. It seems like once everything's loaded in it's fine - it's just that first time I turn around that things stutter, and this stutter has increased dramatically. It's the difference between some choppiness (~5fps maybe) to a one-second pause.
I narrowed it down to something between 264 and 269. One of the big changes was terrain parallax so I deleted all modded textures from data/textures/landscape (not subdirs though) and there was no difference.
Boris, I don't expect you to know what's going on here but I can narrow it down better if I had the versions between 264 and 269. Is there a way I can get those older releases?
