Extreme bright lighting is killing me


Recommended Posts

Posted

HI, it's me again...

 

So, this has been driving me to drink - short drive but still... Okay, so, I'm here fighting with Skyrim (anyone else have a love/hate relationship with this game?!) and tonight I start seeing my candles are extremely bright. I go vanilla and only have LAL and go into Bannered Mare... Looks okay but bright still... Throw in ELF, COT, RLO.. and BOOOM... I'm blinded by celestial halos coming from light sources... 3 candles could be seen miles away bright.

 

I just blew my game and reinstalled it... still happening.. I have nothing but LAL and then I notice something - a "shadersfx" folder in Data. I don't recall this folder ever before... So, I delete... but what ever.. My issue is still here and I have no idea what is causing this and I have never seen this before.

 

Vanilla...

Nothing but Somber Dreams ENB

And this is with any ENB and any light mod...

Given the amount of gray in your screen both enb and your base skyrim have blown the fuck out gamma.

Your ENB preset probably does not have settings for complex particle lights effect. You can either turn off that effect in ENB settings, tweak the effect yourself or get another up-to-date ENB preset (not sure, but i think this effect was introduced in .366 ENB binaries so you need preset with .366+ support).

Would a new binary do this to an older ENB? I'm also getting it in Bleak too... I just downloaded 377 last night and didn't think that it would affect it so.

 

Thanks!

Gamma is set to default of 1

Yes, that is exactly what is happening. You are using an old ENB preset that does not have complex particle lights settings included so newer ENB binaries are using default values for these effects. You need to find an ENB preset that is updated to support .366 (I am using Rudy ENB 4.3a).

As orrieL said above if you're outputting base values and your stuff is super bright, it's because your monitor default is super bright, aka your monitor's gamma is blown as hell, on top of incorrectly set pointlight values for ENBs over .319.

Oh... FFS... that was it. I dropped down to 319 and no more celestial blindness...

 

THANK YOU!!!!

Probably incorrectly set... I don't think it's blown as this monitor is a week old

I don't think he meant 'blown' as in broken but 'blown' as in 'over blown'. New monitors can be over bright for a week or three.
