Boris Vorontsov has just released the first version of his ENBSeries mod for Bethesda’s RPG, Skyrim. This first version of the ENBSeries is compatible with the latest 1.3 version of Skyrim and brings some interesting enhancements to the table. This mod is basically a graphic enhancement with big amount of controls for users, as they can modify brightess in HDR for clouds, stars, aurora, sun, moons (sun and moons textures must be unchanged at first pixel color on them, gray and black accordinly), sun corona, sun light, ambient light, and textures gamma. In addition, the ENBSeries introduces SSAO that gives high quality look of character’s skin (and not only).

Fact is that this kind of videos are a beauty to watch so go ahead and take a look at it! Continue reading The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim – New Timelapse Video→
Now that’s what we’ve been waiting for. Contrary to the first HD Texture Packs that got released earlier, modder Z4G4 went ahead and re-textured most of them in higher resolution.

These are brand new HD textures that are miles better than those of Skyrim vanilla. Or to put it simply; this is how the PC version of Skyrim should look in the first place. Download link and comparison shots are bellow and we dare you; take a good look at them and tell us that you are not impressed. Come on, go ahead, don’t be shy!

Oh boy, I certainly wouldn’t want to be in Bethesda’s place right now as every gamer is cursing them. Since the PC version of Skyrim’s latest update was delayed, we were hoping that it wouldn’t be haunted by bugs or issues. However, that’s not the case so make sure to avoid upgrading to it right now. Why? Because the damage/magic resistance is completely broken in the 1.2 version. Now this is a global issue and not something that only a bunch of PC gamers are experiencing so yeah, this is a crucial issue, especially if you are a Mage. Therefore, make sure to run the game in offline mode in order to avoid Steam’s auto-update functionality.
