It’s really well done so be sure to check it out! Continue reading The Terminator meets Skyrim; What would have happened if Terminator had traveled back in time to Skyrim→
It’s really funny how Skyrim suffers from the same issues that plagued Oblivion. As you may remember, one of them was the blurry textures in the distant landscapes and back then, modder Qarl released a texture pack that enhanced those distant textures. Bethesda tried to fix most of them in Skyrim, but you will still be able to notice some low-res textures in some panoramic views. Good news then that modder OpticShooter decided to release a mod that enhances Skyrim’s distant textures. Continue reading The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – Enhanced Distant Textures is a must-have mod→
Remember when Crysis was released? What a graphical juggernaut, right? However, there was one thing that pissed off all those graphics whores out there and that was… the rocks. Man, the rocks were awful in Crysis. Not only were they blocky but they had such low-res textures that could literally destroy the whole immersion. Since then, every PC gamer is looking at – and taking screenshots of – every damn rock. And as Skyrim is so friendly to the modding community, guess what someone decided to re-texture? Oh yeah, you got that right; the bloody rocks. Hooray! Continue reading The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim; I tell you, it’s all about the rocks→
We were really annoyed by Skyrim’s latest patch. We don’t mind the Steam DRM that was introduced. But the fact that it broke some of the most useful mods was a bit hard to swallow. Thankfully though, there is a solution as modder ‘Monochrome Wench’ released Skyrim4GB; a tool to load Skyrim with the Large Address Aware executable flag set so the entire 4GB Virtual Memory Address Space can be used by the game. And yes, this tool is compatible with Skyrim’s latest DRM version so go ahead and grab it. Continue reading Skyrim fans, rejoice; here is a ‘4GB Tool’ that is compatible with Skyrim’s latest DRM version→
The long awaited patch for Skyrim was promised to be released on November 28th for the consoles but PC gamers are getting a new patch until then. Patch 1.2 is slated for release on Thanksgiving and promises to feature new and major features. This new PC patch basically updates the game’s executable file and we should warn everyone that Skyrim won’t be compatible with the LAA fix – a mod to use more than 2GB of RAM – after applying this patch. Thankfully, all other mods and .ini tweaks are unaffected by this update. Continue reading The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – New PC Patch Is Out Now; Not compatible with LAA→
Last week we informed you about both FXAA Injector and ENBSeries mods for Skyrim. However, FXAA Injector introduces a sharpening filter that might annoy some of you and although it is customisable, a lot of gamers won’t be bothered with its settings. On the other hand, ENBSeries needs tweaking in order to find the ‘sweet’ spot. So, what about those that can’t be bothered with tweaking the aforementioned mods? Well then, here comes Tapioks’ Enhanced Shaders Mod to fill that gap. Be sure to check the comparison shots bellow to get an idea of what this mod is capable of.

It’s ironic as earlier today we said that we wouldn’t post more mods about Skyrim – in daily basis – but here is what most PC gamers have been waiting for. Yeap, that’s a proper PC UI. Modder Roltak released yesterday his QD Inventory, an interface mod that displays the inventory in a table instead of the usual style, thus improving its usability. This is clearly a must-have mod for every PC gamer that wants to enjoy Skyrim. Download link, as well as some screenshots, after the jump.
