Skyrim Configurator

Recommended Posts

Skyrim Configurator is a small program offering a GUI method to alter settings in the Skyrim.ini and Skyrimprefs.ini files for those unhappy with finding/altering these manually through a text editor.

 

As far as I can see all the major options for tweaking are included but I feel the instructions are a bit lacking. That said the app does offer some popup info as you hover over selections (tick boxes) and could aid the less technically inclined with a simple and foolproof way to add in recommended settings.

Combining this tool with the tweaks over on nvidia's site might be a good approach.

 

Maybe better to suggest it's use with TheCompilers tweak advice, problem being all those pesky ATI users ;) But obviously any ini tweaks can be tried using this app.

I'm curious. Was there new config options introduced in one of the recent patches, and if so, does Skyrim Configurator know about them?

 

The only things I can think of would be the introduction of the grass shadowing effects in update 1.5, and iirc, there was a tick box option related to this in the version of SC I used. Will check properly later.

I just ran across this mod via a mod review video. They've updated it since the postings here and I'd be interested in seeing how well it plays with everything now. At the very least this could be a great tool to initially set up your INI before manual editing. At the very most and best it could be used to replace most of the manual INI tweaks and launcher settings at the beginning of STEP, essentially combining everything into one tool. It's more user friend for new modders too, though a wiki guide would need to be written for it. I might look into this and see if it'll be able to replace most of the manual tweaking since I've already reset my Skyrim to vanilla...
