A few days ago, we informed you about the latest version of SkyBoost, a CPU performance optimization mod that is based on Arisu’s TESV Acceleration Layer.

Arisu, the author behind the amazing TESV Acceleration Layer tool, posted in Bethesda’s forum some interesting notes about his tool and how it works. It’s really complicated, so we won’t go into full details but what caught our eye was the author’s claim that Skyrim would probably experience a speed gain of over 100% if it was properly optimized. According to Arisu, this is no exaggeration as the compiled code is simply bad. Don’t believe it? Then let us tell you that the TESV Acceleration Layer doesn’t modify even nearly 1% of the code, but still manages to cut the cycles per frame by 30-40%. Imagine what would happen with proper optimization. Continue reading Author of TESV Acceleration Layer: “Skyrim would probably experience a speed gain of over 100%”→

God, I love modders. I’m pretty sure that everyone has noticed slowdowns when entering Skyrim’s cities and where there are a lot of NPC’s.

And get this right; it really does work. So yeah, this is a must-have mod for every Skyrim player.
