The parameters in this section affect the game engine behavior.

Questions regarding DVI & TV-out + antialiasing and anisotropic filtering: oyvind: AIW / Multimedia Discussion and Technical Support: 1: Oct 1, 2002 06:12 AM: Anisotropic filtering: Exonoesis: AMD Radeon Discussion and Support: 44: Jul 3, 2002 11:27 AM. K ENB Pure Light. This one particularly focuses on improving colors and lights of the game’s areas, but it can be quite an intensive mod to run, and you may find your performance struggling if you use this ENB. If your PC can handle it, though, check out this stunning mod to drastically improve the lighting of Skyrim. Download K ENB Pure Light. The anisotropic filtering from graphics drivers tends to filter textures that shouldn't be filtered, so if you opt out of an ENB/ENBoost, only use the setting in your launcher. The launcher setting can also be controlled through skyrimprefs.ini under.

Filtering
It's noted by Boris that it is best to force anisotropic filtering here instead of in the video card drivers. His reasoning behind this is because if forced through video card settings, the filtering will be applied to all textures and some textures should not be filtered. Filtering such textures could cause issues with SSAO and parallax. Forcing anisotropic filtering through the ENB; however, skips these textures. (This behavior has not been confirmed either way by STEP.)

ForceAnisotropicFiltering

This will force anisotropic filtering for all textures with a linear filtering type. Textures which should not have anisotropic filtering are not filtered.

MaxAnisotropy

This is the level of anisotropy filtering. The values are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16; higher values provide better quality.

ForceLodBias

This parameter forces LOD Bias for all LOD textures.

LodBias

LOD Bias controls the sharpness of LOD textures. Values should be between -0.5 and 0.5; any higher or lower and texture degradation is highly probable. Lower values result in sharper textures.

AddDisplaySuperSamplingResolutions

This parameter enables downsampling to be used without having to force it through the graphics driver. It is recommended to remain disabled and only to be used by advanced users. In the most basic explanation, downsampling is rendering the game at twice the monitor's set resolution and then downsampling it to the correct resolution before being displayed on the monitor. This mimics supersampling. For this to work, users must enable this parameter, run in full screen mode, set the resolution in SkyrimPrefs.ini to 2x the monitor's set resolution, and set UseDefferedRendering=false under [GLOBAL]. For a more in-depth explanation and how-to's using the video drivers rather than the ENB parameter below, see this article.

EnableVSync

Harrells compact reloading press review. This will enable vsync which is recommenced to prevent screen tearing. Enabling this has also been reported to help solve the lip sync issue on NPCs; however, users should also set iPresentInterval=1 in Skyrim.ini.


VSyncSkipNumFrames

This tells the frame buffer to ignore the back buffer 0, 1, 2, or 3 contiguous cycles before grabbing a frame. This feature is mainly for users with high refresh rate monitors (> 60Hz) and should be set to '0' for most other users.
