Skyrim Tweaks Website

Dear Step Community,

 

A fellow nexus member gave me this website which I thought was interesting as it contains most of what step incorporates and other useful tips in a clean simple guideline.

I thought that Multithreading changes in the ini will decrease your stability generally because the game engine wasn't optimized to use multithreading anyway.

Not so much that it makes it unstable... it just does not have any visible effects on performance. Hence the mantra "less is better" have to apply... at least imo.

Some people have reported that it caused instability issues.. but again if it is this or something else is hard to say.

[Deathwing514]

Or It could be that the person reporting the instability is blaming this tweak for something that was already present in his system.

 

Same thing can be said for the multithreaded tweak, the people that state it is working could be having a placebo effect instead of having hard evidence to prove it.

 

But one thing is a fact, those tweaks do have some effect on the game, but whether it actually improves performance, I cant officially say.

Only by monitoring the game with software like Skyrim Performance Monitor both with and without the tweaks will you be able to see any affect on performance and have evidence to back it up. Then you would need at least one or two more people to do the same to test whether results can be duplicated.

I thought we had been over those tweaks like 5 times in the past 6 months now, all with people reporting back the same thing. No noticeable performance differences. Also they have been up over at the ENB forums with essentially the same result.

As for stability.... then it could be better, it could be worse. Nobody really knows since there are so many other issues with stability that its very difficult to say for sure.

But considering that the whole issue with threading is the next big thing in overhauling the engine, then I guess its somewhat logical to assume that those settings are in general just not optimal at the very least. It has been proven by the smart people(A something, and the author of ENB) who actually try to do things with this, that its the engines bad way of handling threading that is the reason why higher ugrids become so woefully unstable.
