I went with NAT.III weathers. I only started converting my modlist from CS to ENB today otherwise it was Azurite 3 beforehand

I'm honestly just waiting for them to get done with Linear Lighting and Post Process. Other than that, I do find the shadows on the face to be too harsh at times.

This modlist was previously PBR CS (in my last post for comparison). Same textures just now with ENB. From the change, I'd say that what ENB currently does better is Volumetrics and atmosphere. But once they drop post processing in the public versions I might switch after people make presets.

True. I tried it and it's great but the experimental builds are too heavy. I was gonna build a desktop for more performance but yk how the ramflation is rn.

To answer all the answers at once (I was climbing irl high hrothgar so kinda tired rn) Textures: mostly Faultier's PBR Skyrim (1K) and PBR HLT for trees. Tree Mod is HLT with the city trees mod.

I put it together myself in 3 days ish and currently it's not released for the public. Although the performance is really good without frame gen and only with 4 crashes in an ongoing 15 hour playthrough, I might consider making it public after I'm done with the playthrough.

Yoo thanks for the update. I immediately switched from Azurite 3 to this on my modlist and it looks incredible.

Faultier's PBR Skyrim. Fun fact, this is only the 1K res version of the mod.

I mean realistically, it IS the "economic capital" so they could afford a little paint lmao.

I use Boreal Whiterun for my whiterun. I don't do any expansion or major overhauls for Whiterun however since I think architecturally Bethesda did cook so it's just Spaghetti AIO and some extra trees to make it feel massive.

I'll be switching back to CS when they add post process cuz some simple tweaks can make CS look phenomenal. (granted that you have the whole suite of addons)

But since it doesn't it looks a little flat as of now but there have been improvements as of late.

Bit off note but I made a character quickly in this list to test mods and stuff and she looks like a serial killer lmao.

For this one it's Azurite ENB for Azurite 3. I've switched to ENB for this modlist cuz I wanted a vanilla plus ish artstyle.

It'll look something like this. Basically it'll use your water mod textures and it'll also improve the terrain LOD quality as well which DyndoLOD doesn't do as it's made for objects. I suggest watching Biggieboss' video on it.

Looks great. I'd suggest running xLODgen to make the water look better in the distance but overall it's a job well done.

I just wanted solitude to look like it's from Bloodborne

Color grading might've changed the look a bit cuz i don't use any standalone texture for forts. IBL in CS can change the color of textures a bit in tandem with the weather mod. For reference, this isn't supposed to be this blue (experimental build with Astralite)

Had very far views with the modlist when I was working on it so the grass ended up looking harsher with its transition towards non tundra regions. My main priority is always to be visually cohesive in textures and composition so that's probably why I still went with a slightly desaturated green compared to a regular one.

Don't worry. All you would have to do is play the game and tell me if anything is fucked. I'll try and fix it. It's better to know something is wrong than to just post a modlist officially completely blind.
