Re: Skyrim SSE Water for ENB

Thanks, it varies from screenshot to screenshot but mostly it's vanilla or (somewhat modified) Obsidian.

'The green reflections emitted by some meshes when viewed at a certain angle is a bug that was introduced with Skyrim Special Edition.'

Any luck tackling this one MindFlux? Green waterfall reflections. Realistic Water 2.0 had a fix but wasn't exactly clear what the fix was, otherwise i'd try and implement it myself.

Re: Skyrim SSE Water for ENB

You mean the one that’s caused by screen-space reflections and can be fixed by disabling specular for the object? I’m noticing it sometimes but haven’t really been bothered by it, after all the game is full of similar minor bugs...

Aha yes that appears to be the cause, I will edit those myself. Bit of a toss up though, as you seem to lose the wet look that the specularity gives the water.

Re: Skyrim SSE Water for ENB

Yes. I'm somehow suspecting this is a renderer issue that cannot be fixed properly.

I assume disabling either screen-space reflections or environment mapping for the object also "fixes" the issue but you are right, both are workarounds.

Re: Skyrim SSE Water for ENB

Argh, Im back to having ugly pixelated reflections again!? I switched computer last week and since then I've done a clean install of Skyrim with the exact same load order as before but the waterreflections still look really bad. If I put Water for ENB after Realistic Water 2 I get pixelated waterreflections, if I let RW2 overwrite they are gone...
Dont really know how to fix this Im afraid, ini-settings does nothing and neither does water-settings in the enbseries, maybe its another mod that is causing this?

It's hard to say but I'm betting the reflection is the same (must be actually) but the pixelization is just easier to see in a small pond since there are really not much waves going on with Water for ENB.

Re: Skyrim SSE Water for ENB

Yeah, thats probably it, I just notice it when the water is completely still so... Going to try the wavy version to see how that looks.

Re: Skyrim SSE Water for ENB

As soon as its just a little movement on the watersurface the reflections look way better, so yeah, your theory seems to be correct indeed. Non-wavy-version:

So its not a big deal at all.

Re: Skyrim SSE Water for ENB

Hey,
Love this mod and it's resolved a lot of glow issues for me as well, just noticed a minor discrepancy though that I wanted to make you aware of:

in the small mountain waterfall opposite Riverwood. One part of the fall is white at night while the rest of it is a much duller colour, and the difference is quite jarring. I tested this with your mod at the very bottom of my load order, and disabled other water mods, to try and see if it was something else, but looks not.

Again, thanks for the mod, it's definitely staying in my load order!! :)
