ive been asking some performance mods here in thread and i said to myself why not make a performance Mod list so decided to make this thread a  list of performance mod instead  Since is not easy to look for a performance friendly mods im going to write performance mods that i know and some are suggested by the users in here and if you may know some mods the boost  FPS or enhance performance might as well post it so i could add it on my Mod performance List

 

 

 

Mods:

Skyrim Project Optimization as you may know this mods boost FPS on every interiors when using Realistic Lighting Overhaul it could also work on enhance Light and FX (ELFX) or ENB

 

Bethesda Performance Textures on armor,clothes,weapons,and also on Animals and Creatures this mods aim to reduce all the texture of the vanilla armor,clothes,weapon,animals and creatures for maximum performance

 

Skyrim Project INI or [spINI)  this program fixes your ini files and let you tweak your ini files to performance and quality 

 

Remove the Underwater Grass and other Stuff too like the mods says this mod remove the underwater grass for a performance boost 

 

Insignificant Object Remover this remove insignificant object to improve FPS without any visual degration 

 

Optimizer Textures this mods aim to reduce 4k texture to 2k texture it optimize every texture and bsa in your mod list

to improve performance

 

Skyrim Mods Complex Optimizer this is pretty much the same as Optimizer textures just choose between the two

 

Colorful lights -No Shadows - More FPS by TRoaches this mods Aim to kill dynamic lightning indoors so all fireplace dont cast shadow 

 

and For those who dont use ENB but still want more color to the Game:

 

I Cant Believe its not ENB  

 

RCRN AE (Realistic colors and real nights) 

 

for ENBs:

 

Stakado Cinemascope ENB 

 

Suri ENB

 

Dreamer Real Performance ENB 

 

and here on LL: Another Enb pack for low pc/laptop http://www.loverslab.com/topic/59406-another-enb-pack-for-low-pc-laptop/?do=findComment&comment=1500590

 

this one is not a mod but unpacking 

 

- Skyrim - Meshes

- Skyrim - Sounds
- Skyrim - Textures
- Skyrim - Voices
 
increase frames in some places (stated by andy14 on the fifth comment)
 
this one is the best cleanmem http://www.pcwintech.com/cleanmem this has solve memory related freezes problems just follow the instruction on the section 5 of bulwark optimization guide for installing the program  http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/32363/?

Try getting sINIp (Skyrim ini Project), and playing with the pre-configured presets from sINIp for ENB. This alternate launcher is also more user friendly, and you can adjust more. 

:)

ini settings can make more of a difference than "performance mods"

It is not a mod:

- Skyrim - Meshes

- Skyrim - Sounds

- Skyrim - Textures

- Skyrim - Voices

Seriously? I'll have to try this.

TESAlliance and STEP both verify that this only helps with loading times, not with actual FPS.

The loading time is not only reduced.
 
I do not know what anyone has found.
 
But for me it increases the FPS (very noticeable when using ENB) enormously in many places.
More concretely: Wherever heaps trigger in the Navmeshes are that are queried by script.
 
Example: WhiteRun - in the area of forging at the city entrance.
 
As BSA: 26-32 FPS
Loose Files. 48 FPS - Constant
 
And nothing against TESAlliance and STEP.
I do not know the test environment of TESAlliance and STEP.
 
I have only my Skyrim as a test environment - and there it works - as for many others.
 
And I'm long enough software developers to know the tangible results are correct and not analysis and statistics of other.
And I also know that my results are not representative - as others. ;)
 
 
 
 
PS:
At laptop is often the graphics card will be the bottleneck - actually castrated Pipilines.
 
This could relieve the graphics card something eventually.

Don't the files in the bsa get extracted in ram before using?

 

To OP: What are you expecting as "performance mods" if you want to use ENB and have hi-res textures? If you don't care about grass, there's an .ini setting to disable it, that gives about 10+ fps boost, you can disable shadows outside with another .ini setting and there is a mod that disable shadows inside. I would give more details but I don't think you care for any of the suggestions.

The only performance mod I can think of that don't affect graphics are:

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/40129/? (haven't tried the latest version)

I don't know how the newest version works because it has an included d3d9.dll and .ini, I still use the 1.7 version which is just a single .exe. I'll update once I'm sure the new version doesn't overwrite my ENBoost settings. About the fps it gives, they are not much but the loading stutters are gone in my game.

No - the BSA is loaded into the RAM - not unpacked.
And even if you do not have a BSA. ;)
 
The files from the BSA to be unpacked at runtime when needed.
When you enter a new cell or a new Encounter Zone.

anyone one may know some program that can boost performance like the CLEAN MEM that i saw on grandbulwark optimization guide that give a lot of performance not only on skyrim but on my different game aswell

Colorful Lights - No Shadows - More FPS by TRoaches - Kills dynamic lighting in doors, so all the fireplaces basically don't cast shadows.

 

SMCO is great, though I still use Optimizer Textures by AdPipino to generate minimaps for everything and downgrade 4k textures to 2k.  I pretty much keep SMCO for meshes.

 

 

I've tried some mist/fog removers, and though they help, none of them kill those damn columns of mist-light (pseudo god rays) and I'm still manually selecting each one I come across in game to disable & markfordelete.  Makes a difference on my older laptop (2Ghz Core2Quad Q9000 & GT130m).  There are shit tonnes of them some times that just kills performance to a studdery mess.  Need to get the people of skyrim to open their facking windows and dust their shit out at some point.

Test it for yourself and see if it helps you out.  Go to a dungeon or Dimhollow Crypt is a good one, check your FPS while trotting around the stage.  Then disable the mist/light particle effects and run through the stage again and see if it makes as big a difference for you as it does for me.

i will upload my own enb is good fps or no fps lose i have tested when i go to home

but this is good

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/66465/? for enb 0.112 (enb 108-113 is good fps but from 2xxx to 3xx i get  with dll alone from 48-55 to 30-25 lol)

the best choice for fps is two thing

-shadow

- fade / draw limit

i use skyrim configrator to diable field of depth/saa/maa any reduce view and drawing limit , remove interior shadow , reduce shadow to very low and disable it, check threading , reduce decale ,tree, grass to 75-90

from 20-30 fps jump to 40-52 fps with enb and 1k texture

ok il try to disable the shadow but im not sure with the fade especially on actor fade

thanks il try this one out i was planning on starting a new game since my game is a bit unstable im not sure if its the EBT or some dangerous mods 

il definitely try all your recommendations a bit off topic i was try to optimize PROTOTYPE 2 then i just saw this radeon pro i was thinking if i could also use this on skyrim  any user who already tried this on skyrim??

i just have tried the enb and the no shadow both of you have recommended  i did gain a  alot of fps boost and the enb is great i was always switch back to cute enb because of this enb give color but this performance enb gives much color than cute enb does and also about optimizer  is okay to compress it then stop then compress again does it start from the beginning or just continue what i have just stop?

that's because your bsa are compressed, and the game have to decompress the files before loading them

problem with loose files are doubles

body and npc mods have a lot of doubles and are wasting a lot of ram

 

bsa kill doubles, so uncompressed bsa > loose files (2 go that's too small to get rid of all doubles)

loading smco and texture optimiser on the textures will save a lot of ram too
