@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.

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.

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?

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.

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 .

And many many other stuff just can't describe all 11 gigs of mods I am using, Sorry.
BTW I am still playing on 1.3.22 version of Skyim (pre grass shadow patch) and have the whole game backed up and of course have to play it in offline mod.
Good Luck

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.

Gionight, I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THAT YOU HAD REFUSED TO RELEASE YOUR CONFIG!

So, please explain how my comment could possibly have been "obviously addressed" to you.

Anybody know what happened to prOPA? I was waiting for his new profile release for his ENB he developed for use with Project Reality Climates of Tamriel as I want to use a really solid looking .119 profile. I might have to try SkyRealism out instead. Post some new screens of your great work prOPA my friend!

Favorites here so far: trillville's smoke (amazing really!) DogStar's camera work, Gionight's everything, Unreal's landscapes and amazing scenery shots...come on Unreal I will pay you cash money lol...prOPA's colors, Opethfeldt's realism, any ETA on your new work Opethfeldt?

I am having a few issues if anybody would share their knowledge? I followed the S.T.E.P. guide for my Skyrim setup and tried their recommended ProjectvENB with CoT setup and it didn't seem to compare to the .119 ENB shots on here as it was a .113 setup. Not sure if that makes a massive difference or not. I think I liked Opethfeldt's and the person behind True Vision ENB for their cinematic approach but the DoF behaved oddly at times. My major major issue is when I try to get a screenshot up close of my character, I can see a faint but bright halo around my character, like an outline that is a double almost. I have no idea what is causing that and because of how many different variables you probably don't either. What is your recommended nvidiainspector settings? Do you use 4x or 8x supersampling in addition to ENB? I tried STEP recommended settings but it feels like something is missing for whatever reason. There's a "shimmer" effect to walking around on grass/trees etc. not present when standing still/screenshots. Normal?

Thanks for any advice from the pros. Just want to get my screenshots looking right before impost. The glow or halo is my biggest concern. Sorry if posting in wrong place.

meh i'm sort of with you on this one. i realize this is only a screenshots thread and nowhere does it state that you have to release whatever you might be working on. but when you have so many kind people in this thread willing to share, it does seem kind of selfish in comparison.

@SecretSumo & IndigoNeko
I'll be honest, I have no idea. When I booted up that particular quest I was shocked myself; I can't recall the smoke ever looking quite so good. Maybe it's some kind of high quality volumetric version, which could explain why it's used so sparingly. I'll do some tests and let you guys now if there's a variable that controls its appearance. My guess is it's something related to ambient lighting and/or very low bloom values. I should also mention that I'm using a black level control derived from Boris' Old TV effect file (basically unaltered except for the disabled grey filter), which might be responsible for the darkening of the smoke.

Even if it's an accidental discovery Trillville, well done! Many great discoveries are. Hopefully you can track down the culprit because the smoke really brings it to life! Great images all around by everybody, it's very addictive to try all the possibilities

It is selfish. That is exactly the right word for it.

Fortunately the people who refuse to share make up a relatively small minority, even if they do, for whatever reason, seem to post more screenshots than everyone else.
