Welcome to SRLE Extended

Introduction and Summary

PLEASE NOTE THIS GUIDE IS FOR THOSE ALREADY FAMILAR WITH NEOVALEN'S Skyrim Revisited: Legendary Edition I STRONGLY ADVISE TO INSTALL THAT FIRST BEFORE INSTALLING THIS.

First things first. I must acknowledge that this guide would not exist without the hard work of Neovalen and his excellent Skyrim Revisited Legendary Edition. This guide use that as a base.

The aim of this guide is to try and make further changes to the base SRLE to help improve the visuals and game play without sacrificing too much performance and I think I have a nice balance here. IF YOU PLAN ON ADDING TO THIS GUIDE AND USING MY CR THEN PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BASE SRLE AND YOU HAVE TESTED IT FOR ANY ISSUES BEFORE STARTING.

Getting Started

1. Make Sure you have Installed and tested a base SRLE
2. In Mod Organizer, go to profiles. Copy the existing SRLE profile to a new profile named SRLE - Extended. Ensure you are working with this newly created profile.
3. Rename the following mod folders in the left pane of MO: DynDOLOD - TexGen Output --> DynDOLOD TexGen Output SRLE Original; DynDOLOD World Output --> DynDOLOD World Output SRLE Original.
4. Disable the following mod folders in the left pane of MO: DynDOLOD TexGen Output SRLE Original, DynDOLOD World Output SRLE Original, SRLE Profile (this is the folder where Neo has you copy the contents of the overwrite folder to at end of his guide).
5. create the following mod folders in the left pane of MO: DynDOLOD TexGen Output - SRLE Extended, DynDOLOD World Output - SRLE Extended, SRLE Extended Profile.
6. Ensure you have NO mods in the overwrite folder before starting to install SRLE Extended.

Getting Started

Boris's VRamSizeTest Tool

Users should download and run Boris's VRamSizeTest tool. Run the VRamSizeDX9.exe. Windows 7 users subtract 170 from the value provided and use that value. Windows 8/10 users subtract 350 and use that value.

Recommended Usage:

• Run the VRamSizeDX9.exe you will get a message saying Video memory available (MB) ...... whatever the number say
• Windows 7 users subtract 170 from the value provided and use that value. Windows 8/10 users subtract 350 and use that value.

Example my own system:

1. Video memory available = 11648
2. I run Window 7 so subtract 170
3. Therefore: 11648-170=11478
4. So total Video memory available = 11478

now open ENBlocal.ini and place your result here VideoMemorySizeMb=whatever your result was:

So for me it was

[MEMORY]

• ReservedMemorySizeMb=896 (THIS NUMBER WILL LIKELY BE DIFFERENT FOR EVEVRYONES SYSTEM. START AT 512 IF STUTTERING OCCURS INCREASE BY 128 UNTIL IT STOPS OR IS MINIMAL DON'T GO OVER 1024
• VideoMemorySizeMb=11478

Fuz Ro D-oh - Silent Voice

Mod Notes: This mod enhances support for unvoiced in-game dialog. It does so by coercing the engine, in a non-violent way, into playing a generic silent voice and lip synch[sup]1[/sup] file whenever it comes across a dialog response without voice assets of its own. Ergo, mod authors need not create and bundle silent voice files in their distribution packages.

Mirai - the Girl with the Dragon Heart

Author: kaleidx

Version:0.6a

Special Installation:

Mod Notes: Mirai is a young Breton mage living alone in the harsh frozen wastelands of Skyrim for close to a year. Originally from High Rock like the rest of her kind, you'll be quick to learn a situation with her father caused her to seek refuge alone in the lands of the north. What the situation was, however; she's not as open about. Mirai had always been a delicate girl, a fawn under her mothers protection -- a sheltered life but with the adventurous heart of a dragon. As such being forced to learn to become more independant so quickly was a struggle but found a way to carry on. Her long time alone in Skyrim has begun to have an affect on her once sweet demeanor and now comes off as a much more abrasive, distrusting, overall 'cold' person to others. Her front comes to falter from time to time as at the very heart of her being she is still the same delicate girl she once was and perhaps just needs someone to open up to to help her solve the problem that continues to plague her from the inside out.

Proper Torch Wield - Hold your torch away from your face

Author: skyrimaguas

Version: 1.0

Special Installation: Install only the main file

Mod Notes: Do you find it annoying that the torch is always on your face in first person view making it very difficult to see especially during combat? The bright fire on the screen has always been a big distraction for me, and for that reason, I find torches very impractical to use. This mod aims to fix this issue by improving the torch mesh - allowing it to be held farther away from the face. This mod is a simple mesh replacer and does not contain textures so you can use it with your favorite torch retexture.

Base SRLE mods Modified for better performance

After Installing SRLE Benchmarks were performed to discover the over baseline performance Results can be found HERE

It was discovered that average fps using base SRLE was 45.2 the 2 highest performance hitting mods were Vividian ENB and Dyndolod so this is were we begin

Vivdian ENB

all the suggested ENBLocal.ini tweaks come from Nearox SRLE with REGS on Medium Systems guide It is advised to use the folowing setting for Vividian ENB:

1. Under the ENB perfomance options select either the Performance Vanillia Version or the Performance Vivid Version
2. Under the ENB Optional Files Select SMAA Anti-Aliasing
3. once installed add the following to your ENBLocal.ini file:

• [PROXY]
• ProxyLibrary=d3d9_smaa.dll
• [PERFORMANCE]
• EnableOcclusionCulling=true (This is optional but can reduce aliasing/shimmering in the near distance)
• [ENGINE]
• ForceLodBias=false (This is optional but can reduce aliasing/shimmering in the near distance)
• [ANTIALIASING]
• EnableEdgeAA=false (SMAA does a better job.)
• EnableTemporalAA=true (Personal preference. with this enabled it should greatly reduce shimmering/aliasing when moving around)
• EnableSubPixelAA=false

1. Injector.ini file (should be located in the skyrim where you find the TES.exe and the SkyrimLauncher.exe) change the following to:

• [smaa]

  smaa preset one of {SMAA_PRESET_LOW, SMAA_PRESET_MEDIUM, SMAA_PRESET_HIGH, SMAA_PRESET_ULTRA, SMAA_PRESET_UBER}

• preset = SMAA_PRESET_HIGH
• The default Vividian ENB SMAA preset is UBER, which only increases SMAA quality by 10-20% at the cost of multiple FPS.

1. these next changes are entirely optional but worth it if even more fps boost is required, Open enbseries.ini and change the following:

• EnableAmbientOcclusion=false (this option turns off Ambient Occlusion, This will be a major FPS saver on my system I got back approx 7 fps).
• EnableCloudShadows=false (this option turn off cloud shadow on the ground but will save about 3-5 fps).

Dyndolod

this is the next biggest mod that impacts on performance so it is advise the:

1. the medium Setting for DynDoLod Worlds is the best balance between performnce and the world looking nice.

doing just these 2 things should see a 10-15 fps boost (it actually raises my average fps back to 60 fps, my fps is normally above 55 90% of the time there a few spots it does of course go down).

Skyrim Flora Overhaul

If even more fps is required after the changing to the adivise setting for ENB and DynDoLod, then the next mod that has a huge impact on performance is Skyrim Flora Overhaul. Since Enhanced landscapes is used in SRLE Extended Skyrim Flora Overhaul can be removed. You should see about a 5fps boost removing this mod.
