want to destroy your low-end PC? Or maybe you "think" your PC is good? Well, let this ENB destroy or prove otherwise!

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/67483/?

No seriously, my GTX 970 4gb...I thought it could handle any ENB...but wow is that ENB an FPS killer.

But...it looks...AMAZING. Better than Witcher 3 by far, and even better than modded Witcher 3.

My GPU barely runs it :P and in heavy areas like riverwood I barely see 30 FPS lol. Most other places I get 35-40 lol.

Here is a Russian Skyrim Overhaul. Its really stable, but probably needs a higher end PC (there is a lighter version inside the install though).

http://forums.goha.ru/showthread_0_0_p152523322#post152523322

It makes Skyrim A LOT more challenging, more immersive and tons more content. It has a lot of nice little touches

You'll need all DLC as a pre-warning.

It also uses lord of the rings music and other famous musics from games and other movies lol. The music is really good. And they did a great job on the sounds.

Its not quite EVERY time, more like 50% of the time. Which got really annoying when he stole ten dragon souls in a row from me and I couldn't get rid of him because I needed to learn a plot-specific Shout to kill him and I needed a dragon soul for that. Catch 22, at least until I remembered that I could get a dragon soul from the Tomb of Jurgen Windcaller, which I always forget to do.

Fifty percent is a lot when dragons aren't everywhere. Because they're kinda not. But still common.
Also, you can get a soul from the Tomb? I had no idea.

My final character, which took so many remakes and changes. I wanted a character that I always envisioned in my head, but I could never get it quite right. Finally, with a combination of the right body, meshes, textures and messing with the sliders a bit...got the character I always wanted :)

Now after 1000 skyrim hours. I can finally stop making new characters over and over and actually accomplish stuff :P

Goddamn but I forgot how much work goes into modding this game up. 210 plugins and a bunch of additional mods later, it's about ready to go. STEP is a lengthy process, but by the end of it goddamn is that a pretty game.

“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Holy shit. What mod(s) did you use to get such... natural... looking faces? Sick of the typical ones everywhere. Beauty is just not possible in vanilla.

I may post my mod list at some point. Right now I kinda just want to take a break from anything Skyrim after all that time lol. I don't even want to look at it right now :P

But, I recommend starting with an ENB. I am using ENB grim and somber malacath performance version...that ENB (and the others he has made, azura is a good one) gives the best look with little loss in performance. Though that partly depends on your GPU how much of a loss one gets with ENB.

Then for races, I actually found RCOTS on google. But I won't link it here. I don't want to be banned :P I don't like the base race, cause its not really my type of race (its banned on loverslab, and I can see why, the author who made it must have been a pedo, rather disturbing). So I changed meshes/textures to something that is more older in appearance, instead of it being...well...a creepy as heck loli race.

But if you read my long spoiler rant, its only race/texture/mesh combo that let me make 100% isabella (I named her Ariel for Skyrim purposes) that I randomly dream about once to twice a year, and started dreaming of her when I was 5-7 years old (I'm 27 now)...no idea why...and when I was that young it was a lot more often than that. So I decided that skyrim let me be able to remake her, and now I never have to do that again. And maybe finally my brain will stop dreaming of a random person for no reason that I can think of lol. I've never even met anyone that I know of named isabella, and definitely no one that looks like the one in my dream...no idea why my brain does that in my sleep randomly. I never even think about it at all, and then random dream with isabella in it. So weird lol.

Anyway.

Textures I combined SG textures along with Monli textures. Meshes I used one called UNPRT I believe the initials are.

Then in-game textures are here (you'll need enb for parallax):

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/61995/?

There are some bugs with that setup as far as armor is concerned, but heh, I just ignore it and use the UNPRT armor.

(long kinda rambling part of the post)

But yeah, to shorten up that post

Tamriel Reloaded HD
ENB grim and somber (any of the presets are really good)
SG textures (but I combined monli textures with them)
UNPRT

and...thats all I can think of that is seen in that screenshot. I did a lot of personal edits though, and put clothes on the RCOTS race cause I don't want to see a clotheless...well...yeah...I had to learn art tools and nifskope for that :P

I pretty much accomplished everything I wanted to do in Skyrim, which was my whole personal main quest was to re-make Isabella that I dreamed about since I was 5-7 years old for no reason I can think of. But I at least finished all the DLC quests and main quest lol...those weren't really my goal with Skyrim though :P
