3 edits | [Skyrim] Modded Skyrim looks amazing 
So I saw Dragonborn was coming out, I bought DLC on sale at Christmas, and I haven't touched Skyrim in like a year.
So I thought I could revisit the game, and went to take a look at how things were progressing at Skyrim Nexus.
Well, things progressed a lot.
I get 17-21 fps outdoors with all this installed and enabled, so I'm upgrading my rig this week. When the upgrades are finished, I'll be playing in this environment at playable framerates. Modders are AMAZING! |

Isrengard? Nice looking. Would have to overhaul my system to get it to look that good. I just finished the original game last week. I have to move on to the other 3 or 4 games I picked up while playing this before coming back for the DLC. |

Tiger..I'm kind of clueless about all these mods. How do they install and where do you get them? |

That's the easiest way to do it. Not too sure about your night though. Looks a little too bright. I find that the vanilla was too dark though. |

I increased Gamma a bit so we could see the details (in both screenshots), but this is easily fixed in-game by sliding a gamma ticker left or right to your desired or preferred level of darkness. |

Dude....if you bought ANY game in recent history, it should have been Skyrim. It's insanely....epic...in the literal sense. It's just huge and more quests than you could imagine. As with most of Bethesda's games, I usually end up doing so many side quests, that the main quest ends up being neglected for months at a time...so much, that I actually start messing some things up in the game, time continuity wise....but I think they've fixed most of those now.
Oh, and even without the mods, it's gorgeous....jaw droppingly so.
With the mods, it's unreal. I've seen where they've cranked them to such levels of detail that you'd never be able to play it (as you'd get 2FPS or something) but it's probably the closest thing to actual cinematic that I've ever seen IN GAME...that engine is fucking crazy.
tl;dr - just get it.

I saw the pics, was not impressed. Just did the standard Caliente mod. I have several of the same mods except for the ones you did for character alteration. I have to say it was amazing walking into a new area. I would just spend several minutes just sightseeing. Blackreach was cool as were a lot of the quest specific areas like Wolfskull when you get the man who cried wolf quest. |

I have to agree.
Skyrim is just that epic. I am playing the game again after taking some time off to play other games. Man, when I came back and picked right back up. I have played this game 80+ hours and I will be putting in probably 80 more before I am done. Dead Space 3 is going to cut into that a bit, but not much.

Yeah, I rebuilt my rig at Christmas and the first thing I did was download the hi-rez texture packs.
AMD FX-8350 @ 4.2Ghz
Asus Crossfire V Formula Z MB
16 GB of Gskill PC3-12800 @ 1860Hz
XFX Black Edition Radeon HD 6870
500 GB Western Digital Raptor
The easiest place to get mods is - the Steam Workshop. Just check the ones you want and you're done.

I have absolutely everything maxed. 1900 x 1080. There is nothing else I can turn up.
I am maxing out at 60 FPS - my monitors refresh rate. |
