Enhanced Vanilla ENB for TES Skyrim - V1.3
By MTindle
EDIT - THIS ENB CONFIG IS TOTALLY OBSOLETE NOW. SkyRealism - ENB Evolved, by IndigoNeko IS A MUCH BETTER, UP TO DATE MOD THAN MINE. YOU WOULD BE MUCH BETTER OFF USING HIS MOD. THANK YOU.

This ENB is basically a 'neutral' config, as it only uses the abilities of the ENBSeries binaries to provide Sun rays, SSAO, improved shadows, parallax support and DoF. Therefore it does not use the enbseries.ini to it's full extent and does not alter vanilla game colour AT ALL.
Works great with Realistic Lighting: skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/7654
**Changelog**
v1 - Initial release
v1.05 - Incresed the sky's brightness to better match that of Vanilla's
v1.1 - Changed some settings under the 'FIX' header in enbseries.ini - may increase stability even more (was already very stable)
v1.2 - Changed the folder structure to include more options (Fast SSAO and Slow SSAO)
v1.21 - Added option for no DoF or SSAO, this version only useful for those who want ENB for parallax occlusion mapping and detailed shadows support included with ENB.
v1.25 - Added diiferent Bokeh DoF options, just copy and replace your selected enbeffectprepass.fx file.
v1.3 - ENB v0.113 released by Boris Vorontsov, adds true Godrays effect to the game. ENB binaries download link updated and new options added to the mod. I'm not going to bother including loads of Godray's strength options, as it would take ages to do and is easily tweaked by even a complete noob. To tweak open 'enbseries.ini' in the Skyrim root folder, navigate to the very bottom and tweak the 'SunRaysMultiplier' value yourself. Lower values=less visible rays, Higher values=more visible rays.
**Description**
This ENB is very minimalistic in what it changes; all it does is add Depth of Field, Sun shafts and optionally SSAO as well. There really isn't much else to say.
**Features**
.True Godrays,
.Parallax Occlusion Mapping support,
.Bokeh Depth of Field,
.Slight Chromatic Abberation,
.Vanilla colours are EXACTLY the same as original,
.Optional SSAO with Indirect Lighting.
.Not much of a performance hit, it varies. My PC doesn't dip under 40fps without SSAO with a 1090T and a GTX 460 1gb. With SSAO on though, it can go as low as 30fps.
**Issues**
For some reason the Sky gets slightly darker when ENB is toggled on, not very noticable.*Fixed in v1.05*
It depends on what you call an issue, but the vanilla eye adaption remains which some find annoying.
**Installation**
1.Extract all of the files from the 'Enhanced Vanilla ENB' folder that you want to the game root folder (Where TESV is located)
2.Follow this link (http://www.enbdev.com/mod_tesskyrim_v0113.htm) and click on the arrow to download the v0.113 KAGE binaries. Open the folder you just downloaded.
3.WRAPPER VERSION - Copy d3d9.dll and place it in the root folder. Start the game like you always do. Enjoy.
However, if you find that Skyrim crashes using the wrapper method, you must use the Injector instead.
INJECTOR VERSION - Copy enbseries.dll, enbinjector.ini and ENBInjector.exe and place in the root folder. You must start enbinjector.exe before starting Skyrim as usual.
If you want to select a custom DoF profile, navigate to the 'DoF Options' folder, choose your selected Depth of Field setting, copy and paste this into the Skyrim Root folder. Overwrite the original one. You're set.
**Performance**
Firstly, to my perception the Godrays don't have much of a performance hit at all.
If you find that the screen effects are too much for your system, the first thing you should do is disable SSAO if you have it activated. (in enbseries.ini set 'useambientocclusion' > false)
Optionally, disable DoF and keep SSAO on, whichever effect you prefer is the one you should keep. Having BOTH effects on at the same is a
performance killer, only do this if you play at a low resolution/have a high end computer. HOWEVER, should you find that either the DoF or SSAO ON THEIR OWN is too much for your system, disable both in the enbseries.ini file. You won't get either effect but you'll still get much improved shadows and Parallax support
