Your ini is pretty generic, but the worst thing i see is max trees to render being 200. It should be 20 not 200. I doubt anyone is running 200 skinned trees or if even the engine will render them anyway, but that would most likely destroy any performance gains you would get form any other settings, lol. But yeah 20 is fine and you should not notice any difference. Which brings me to my question. ANYONE. Do I Have To Have ENB Injector running to gain the benefit of Enb Boost? So many "guides" ect on the net about ENB and it seems to be a lot of conflicting info. I expect to trust STEP, but really i know nothing about STEP nor do i use it exactly, i came for information and have used some of the guides. The ENB "boost" guide suggests i need the injector running for it to work. However when i run the injector V sync doesn't seem to work, whether i use my video card vsync and turn it off in all inis, or if i turn off my V card vsync and use Enb setting, or f i turn that off and use the Skyrim prefs setting, i seem to get tearing. Which i do not get just running the game with Sweetfx and vsync in my Skyrim.ini. I see no real performance benefit with the injector running and in fact cannot show my frame rate with Afterburner as the OSD doesn't work. Nor does the fps setting hotkey for ENB. So other than seeing tearing and pretty much feeling the lag i can't really quantify the difference. I do however have a stable running game just using SweetFx and having vsync in Skyrim Prefs ini with all the memory patches crash fix dll, all my ini are solid. But introducing the injector before startup seemingly makes at least tearing occur but the game feels the same. The main reason i am annoyed is i can not achieve a solid 60 fps in this game unless it's totally Vanilla. My Video card has 8 GB ram my pc has 16GB, my video card laughs at this game at 30% GPU usage if that, Sometimes 14-24% GPU usage, GTX 1070 and it sits at 900Mhz in this game. I overcloked it to 2.5Ghz and it literally made zero difference, actually crashed So i just started running it as whatever it decided to clock itself at and it doesn't even boost in this game to it's retail 3D clocks speed, it thinks it's pac man and yawns at it. My CPU sits at about 50% usage and i have about 16 GB of free ram doing nothing between my video card and pc. My Memory usage on my video card is about 1.2-2.4Gb depending on the location, yet I can't run 60 fps on a 5 year old game? I can play some newer games at 120-180 fps. Yeah i'm modded - but really only with 2k textures, the usual stuff, and only about 80 mods which are half UI simple stuff not script heavy ect. My logs are pretty clean. Essentially my game almost is Vanilla with performance hacks and the usual better textures SMIM Elfx COT, grasses/trees/water ect. But turning off grass and tress makes about Zero difference so they apparently aren't even a factor. I am running the injector version of ENB as i use Sweetfx for it's Smaa and a little bloom, and i couldn't see a logical way to run them both at the same time otherwise.. I don't use Enbs themselves, but i just want the memory hack and occlusion culling or to know occlusion culling is working cause if it is i don't really understand how this game has such shitty performance after about 2 weeks of setting it up thus far. Actually about three weeks night after night reading and making sure everything get's installed ithe right order testing testing. I want to know if anyoen gets 60fps SOLID never drops below 60fps in this game modded on a similar pc as mine. i5 3570k stock, Gtx 1070 16Bg ddr3 ram WD Raptor HD Win 7 64 bit services stripped to the bone install
