About this mod
VR patch for THE ENHANCER ENB - A clean and optimized visual enhancer true to the original art-style of the game or any modlist, designed as a solid upgrade for the game's engine with a natural representation of color and lighting.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
THE ENHANCER VR is a modified preset that tunes these settings for the VR version of the game.
ADJUSTED
- Fixed lighting by adjusting Adaptation, Ambient Occlusion, and Skylighting to VR-friendly values.
- People look more natural with updated values for specularity and sub-surface scattering.
- Rain updated to look better in VR.
- Better sun rays.
- Removed interior fog color to work properly with Interior Floating Fog Remover.
- Changed ENB menu keyboard shortcut to Shift+Enter so it doesn't conflict with Skyrim Upscaler.
DISABLED
- Turned off features that aren't supported or don't work well in VR such as Lens and DepthOfField.
ADDED
- Rain wetness effect for major weathers including Azurite Weathers, Cathedral Weathers, NAT Stand Alone Edition, Onyx - VR Weathers, RAID Weathers, Vivid Weathers, and Vanilla weather.
- Quality version that contains all features enabled at the cost of performance.
- Performance version that provides color, basic lighting, and rain wetness effects at a very minimal cost. If you think you can't run an ENB, give this a shot.
