These are the SkyrimPrefs.ini and the Skyrim.ini, as well as your savegames. This is not the same for every ENB, so make sure you read through the guide that the author of the ENB preset has written for you.Ī few files should be backed up before adding or changing an ENB.
#How to install an enb skyrim 2016 archive#
Generally, you'll have to just copy the ENB files from the archive you just extracted and copy it to your Skyrim root folder as well. When you've found one to your liking, download the file and extract the archive as well. Quite a few can be found on the Skyrim Nexus. To make it work, you'll also need an ENB.
#How to install an enb skyrim 2016 zip#
look into the zip and follow the instructions given by the instructions.txt (or installinstructions.txt, something like that) This should basically cover everything. You have now installed the ENB program itself. download vivid wheaters (if Im correct) from the nexus page thats linked, when you download the enb and install it with nmm (many tutorials out there for this basic stuff). Open the Skyrim folder and copy the files from the Wrapper version into this folder, not the data folder. In this folder, you'll see all your installed Steam-games. Open the Steam folder, navigate through the SteamApps and then go to the 'common' folder. This folder can be found in your Steam directory (where you installed Steam).

For now, leave the Brightness, Contrast and Gamma at 0 and 1.0 respectively. Please read through the guide first before making rash steps and decisions. Note that you're still supposed to read through the description of certain pages, because not every ENB is installed in exactly the same way.

Installing an ENB can be quite tricky, especially if it's your first time.
