Prequisites Setup

  1. Prerequisites Set Up
    Implemented a few recommendations from the Stability Performance Optimization ENB Configuration - a Comprehensive Guide by Memnochs to optimize my PC for modding. Used Nvidia Inspector with the profile downloaded from the Stability Performance Nexus link to manage the TESV.exe. Also implemented some recommendations from Skyrim: Performance Guide (Version 2 Release!) by Night_Thastus.
  2. Script Extenders
    Created SKSE.ini:
    [Display]
    iTintTextureResolution=2048
    [General]
    ClearInvalidRegistrations=1
    EnableDiagnostics=1
  3. Tools
    Uninstalled ENB Organizer because it did not inject the enblocal.ini properly.
  4. xEdit Scripts
    Followed the Guide
  5. Configure Skyrim
    Launched Skyrim and followed through with Nvidia GeForce Experience to "Optimize" my Skyrim settings instead of relying upon the SkrimLauncher.exe to switch everything to [High or Ultra] settings.
    Followed BethINI Guide except I did not choose Windowed Mode as I will not be using One Tweak.
  6. Configure the Creation Kit
    Followed the Guide
  7. Configure Mod Organizer
    Followed the Guide
  8. Create The SRLE Extended LOTD Profile
    Followed the Guide
  9. Clean the Bethesda ESM's
    Followed the Guide
  10. Additional Tools
    Followed the Guide
  11. Post BethINI Tweaks
    Followed the Guide and tested the settings.

    Included Performance INI tweaks to boost Average FPS from INSS Improved New Skyrim Shadows for Medium-Range PC by defosh369 to reduce shadows.

    Followed through with [Configuration Settings] from S.T.E.P. to reduce other performance intensive flora mods. Also made a few personal preference changes.
