ButchDiavolo Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Heyas, I use the STEP ENB (light) and which looks good and works well 99.9% of the time. But sometimes, when I move from an indoor cell into Skyrim, the graphics turn dark blue (during the day) or black (at night). What I mean is, I can barely see the surroundings and lights are slightly more visible, but the screen is mostly a uniform blue or black color? This makes it impossible to see when you are going. Most of the time this is solved by going back indoors then back out. Yesterday however, I had to reload a save (not an autosave) to get it to turn normal again, losing progress. I haven't been able to reproduce this nor does it happen very often. I am just wondering if someone else is experiencing this and what could possibly be the cause? I know next to nothing about ENBs, so I am unable to troubleshoot this myself. I also forgot to take a screenshot of it. I will add one when/if it happens again.

z929669 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 How do you know it's related to ENB? That would seem difficult to prove, as you would need to play with ENB to determine the frequency of occurrence and then without for 2-3x that time to confirm it doesn't happen without ENB. If it IS ENB, then it's most likely related to ENBSeries engine-level DLLs and outside the scope of our control ... unless you have evidence otherwise. I recall this happening to me before on rare occasion, but it's not reproducible AFAIK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall this happening to me before on rare occasion, but it's not reproducible AFAIK. I don't know if it is related to the ENB. It is an (un)edumicated guess really. Perhaps it is just some other "synergy" with EVLaS and the ENB (re: the sithis shadows a while back) or something? I was basically more interested if it happened to others as well (as you more or less confirmed), and if a solution had been found for it. But indeed it is not reproducible and rare enough not to be a major issue. Besides, moving back indoors then outside again seems to fix it more often than not. I was also kinda taken aback when that didn't solve it yesterday and I had to reload a save to fix it. Guess I got scared or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do post back if you learn anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easyrider1988 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I can confirm the same "feature". I do use EVLaS, but my mod setup is different from STEP and I use a different ENB (Serio). And at first I thought it was some weird problem with my video card witch I bought less than a month ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z929669 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I think it is related to the esoteric "EVLaS-ENB bug", but nobody seems to know for certain. Apparently, Boris is somewhat aware of the bug, but I don't know if this is a manifestation of said bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleYou Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 If you are not using our Lighting and Weather patch, the Godrays add on for Cathedral Weathers has a wild edit that changes one of the Imagespaces blue. This might be what you are seeing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you direct me to the wild edit in question so I can adjust it myself, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this the wild edit you spoke about? If so, I will address in the PP patch. CW main plugin has it even higher, so is this an issue with synergy between this value and some other incompatible value Godrays update also changes? Else, this would also be an issue with CW main I suspect: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming we don't know for sure if this could cause the blue tint bug then. But maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
