Said a while ago I was going to post pictures of my characters, and now I've finally found a new place to upload them, so I figured it was about time. She's got better equipment in the game than in these pictures, but I'll post the new ones later. I have been playing this game way to much lately.

Thanks for the beautiful screens! Love the heavy horses!

Deesei's friend is the hottest chick I have yet to see in Skyrim!

I love he draft horses. That second one looks like a Gypsy Vanner.

Posted by: King Coin Nov 19 2011, 05:22 AM

Those lights are just great.

How are the horses? Are they the same as in Oblivion?

Posted by: Saquira Nov 19 2011, 12:43 PM

The horses are great in Skyrim, though they aren't perfect they are still way better than the ones in Oblivion. They move their heads more to look around and often run away from danger. They don't run very far though so you don't have any trouble finding them. I've had a couple that have fought, the first horse I posted a pic of died when single handed trying to take down an fire atronarch. But the new one run away, and I'm a lot more fond of that color anyway. They look really detailed(or so I think at least) and animations look a lot better.

I didn't get to use the frost atronach for very long before I reset my game.

Nice screens. I STILL love the heavy horses!

Thanks guys Scratch what I said about the horses fleeing, horses sometimes run away from danger, but mine attacked a cave bear straight on yesterday. And right, the spoilers in these pictures is a certain person who accompanies my character.

It looks like Sa'Quira has found a great companion! I love the one where they're looking at each other.

I can't wait till Aravi finds some weapons like that.

Posted by: liliandra nadiar Nov 21 2011, 02:02 AM

Pretty sure it's Glass. Chloe has an elven sword and glass bow. Glad they fixed the obnoxious green from Oblivion.

Posted by: Saquira Nov 21 2011, 04:14 PM

mALX: Sure is, I was so happy to see him in this game, even if he only is a descendant.

SubRosa: It is a specific blade with a frost enchantment which was also seen in Oblivion, and judging from the weapons I've seen, as well as the shape it had in Oblivion, I'd say it's glass. I've got an elven sword, and they are very different. In the second picture with weapons, there are from left to right: an elven dagger, a glass waraxe, some staff and another blade of unknown material.

King Coin: Hope you do soon, there are so many cool looking weapons in this game.

liliandra nadiar: I want a glass bow! Haven't even seen one yet. Sa'Quira is using a dwarven bow at the moment and Deesei summons one when she has got need of one. And I agree that the new glass is a great improvement.

Aravi's run into some werewolves, she hasn't been infected. Looks like fun though!

Posted by: Acadian Nov 22 2011, 02:36 AM

Oooh! I heard there were walrus up there, but hadn't seen any pictures before.

Posted by: mALX Nov 22 2011, 03:47 AM

Scenic View #1 is my fave screen of all, that is Awesome !! GAAAAH !!! We will run into werewolves out walking around ???? URK !!! Do we have to kill them? Do they attack? ARGH !!! GAAAAAH !!!

I haven't seen any ... thank goodness !!! Will we catch the disease by fighting with them?

Posted by: Saquira Nov 22 2011, 07:42 AM

Being a werewolf is cool, even though there isn't that very much to do.

The walrus are cool, though they are called horkers in Skyrim. They aren't very hostile either which allows me to watch them pretty closely. Not like the polar bear I've been seeing up north lately.

Thanks mALX ^^. I haven't met any werewolves walking around so I really couldn't say. I've only seen them in quests.

Love the pink sky one - and the ghost-ride, what is that?

I noticed the aurora on my screen looks like the one you just posted, but Victoria's aurora is spectacular and colorful. Does anyone know what causes that? Is it something I can fix to get a more beautiful gameworld?

Posted by: Saquira Nov 22 2011, 04:43 PM

Do you mean http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/7246/2011111800003.jpg aurora? I've seen both versions in the game and both looks awesome, though I'm partial to the blue/green one myself and I haven't seen the other one with a clear sky yet. By the way I'm running on ultra settings at the moment, but I don't know at what quality steam takes the pictures.

There are already several mods that make the world look better, I tried one of them for a while but then I had to re install the game(no idea if it was because of the mod) and I haven't gotten around to installing it again.

The ghost ride was just something I came upon while out riding on the tundra west of Whiterun during the night. I've seen it twice and I still have no idea what it is. Figured I should follow it this time and see if it took me somewhere, but no such luck.

I love the screen right before the headless horseman. Very beautiful.

I've seen similar to those colors, but like I said never with a clear sky. Her pictures does look a lot better than what I've seen in game though, like ever.

Oh! Ulvith just found a great view, and the middle paragraph only contains pictures of her fight with a random dragon. No quest spoilers there I can assure you

Posted by: SubRosa Nov 24 2011, 08:43 PM

That ebony sword looks fantastic! It is too bad you have to fight dragons all the time. From looking at all the screenshots everyone has of them, it seems like you cannot swing a daedra by the tail without hitting one.

Posted by: liliandra nadiar Nov 24 2011, 08:58 PM

It's not too bad. I can wonder for several hours without seeing scale nor tail of one. But they do tend to make very photogenic fights that beg to be screenied.

Great shots, so far I haven't had two dragons in the same area yet, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

Posted by: Saquira Nov 24 2011, 09:08 PM

Thanks mALx!

I've actually sought out most of the dragons I'm fighting, I've come across several when out travelling but if I keep going long enough they eventually give up. I love the dragon fighting though, so personally I don't mind it. I think I've been playing with Deesei for almost 60 hours, and she isn't close to getting all of the shouts.
I played with Ulvith(and Sa'Quira) for a while before embarking on the main quest, and I didn't see the wing membrane of one between Helgen and reporting to the Jarl. So I think that's a good way to avoid them as well, though the shouts are quite useful.

I love taking pics of the dragons, they look so great! Just you wait until the end of the main quest, I'm not going to say anything, but it was awesome!

Posted by: Saquira Dec 5 2011, 09:08 PM

Ulvith is using the Blades armor, and I have to agree that it looks great. It's the best one I've found so far, and I've even done some small enchantments on it.

By the way, i'm currently using two mods that enhance the environment. http://www.fileplanet.com/223430/220000/fileinfo/Elder-Scrolls-V:-Skyrim---Enhanced-Night-Skyrim-Mod-v0.3(which improves the night sky) and http://www.fileplanet.com/223554/220000/fileinfo/Elder-Scrolls-V:-Skyrim---Realistic-Water-High-Resolution-Texture-Mod-v1.5a.

http://img862.imageshack.us/img862/9254/2011121000001r.jpg. Can you imagine how scary it was to come up to Shearpoint intending to just take on one dragon, and then see another come flying past?! The other dragon flew away before the first spotted me(thank the nine) but it still was really scary. Afraid I couldn't ever get more than one dragon in pictures though.

Nice screens! You may be interested (or not) in a mod that shows Khajiit ears through the helmets. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=6362

It's just something that has bothered me a little, but since Aravi doesn't wear helmets anyways it hasn't been a huge deal.

EDIT: is the armor a retexture of elven?

Posted by: Saquira Jan 31 2012, 11:26 PM

Though I don't think i'll try that mod, it's a good option. The way the ears come out look a bit to unnatural, so I think I'll keep the normal helmets.

Yes, it's a re-texture: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=5600 by Sader. There are different versions though, so it doesn't necessarily overwrite the old elven armor and weapons.

Posted by: King Coin Feb 1 2012, 12:04 AM

To me it looks better with the light helmets, but not with the heavy helmets.

I like the armor. Aravi's been using armors from http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=6684 All of them are stand alone and craftable. It looks like the armors are even added into the leveled lists according to the info page. I'm in the process of updating my older version to the current one.

So, my computer is finally back in working order, I've installed all the mods I had previously, and a few new ones, and my saves are all working! Most of the new mods change the graphics, and I at least think it's a rather large improvement.

Zharyn's got some new armor

Okay, sorry. I can see what all of them are showing, but some are very dark. It's hard to find a good light-source sometimes. Not sure what I could do about it except for increasing the brightness of the pictures, but I think that kind of ruins them.

That's definitely Ekali.

What ENB config are you using?

Posted by: Saquira Nov 26 2012, 04:14 PM

Imvisio ENB: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/19379

More specifically, the cinematic settings. But I've removed the depth of field effect and film grain that is the default, because I find them pretty annoying. And I think I modified the shadows a bit as well, because the original was way too dark for me.

Posted by: King Coin Nov 26 2012, 04:23 PM

They are still pretty dark. I actually like depth of field when it is more subtle, but some people make it way too strong. I think my favorite DoF settings were in http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/15386

Posted by: Saquira Nov 26 2012, 04:56 PM

Yeah, I think the settings I changed mostly affected the outside shadows during the day, so I'll have to look into changing the other ones as well. I found some great guide for changing the shadows sometime before I had to re-install Windows, but i haven't been able to find it since. There should be a good explanation somewhere though.
Okay. Yeah, I like the dof sometimes, but it gets annoying since you don't always look at the specific spot that the screen is centered on. It's great for taking pictures though.

Posted by: King Coin Nov 28 2012, 12:32 AM

http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/13306 It is a DoF and SSAO toggle. I've been using it for a little over a week and it's pretty good.

Your textures and colors are Awesome! You must have one hugely powerful PC, LOVE these screens!

Posted by: King Of Beasts Jan 6 2013, 02:28 PM

These screens are just epic. Your really good at taking screens. Do you have the high resolution texture pack, or are you using a gaming PC?

Posted by: Saquira Jan 8 2013, 11:06 PM

I mentioned a guide earlier about tweaking the enb settings, and I've now found it again. It can be found here: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/8005

The darkness problem was much easier to solve than I initially thought, and thus kind of annoying.

Skyrim with Enb but without the Skyrim Visual mods:
http://imgur.com/08CSk.jpg
Skyrim with Enb and the Skyrim Visual mods:
http://imgur.com/PRjr2.jpg

The difference is clear as day even in such a well-lit place as a tavern, and why I didn't try to deactivate the mods earlier is frankly beyond me. In part I suppose that is because I've been reinstalling Windows on my computer, also installing everything over again, and haven't felt like dealing with Skyrim and all the mods until now.

However, I still think that Skyrim is too bright without the Skyrim Visual mods, so I'll just have to try and tweak the enb settings to hopefully manage to find some kind of middle ground.

King Coin: Okay, I've never really used SSAO as I don't think my pc could handle it, at least with Skyrim and the mods I'm using, but it might be a good idea to try DoF that way.

mALX: I don't know how to determine whether a pc is extremely powerful, as you put it, but I'm quite certain mine is at least quite good. Thank you

King of Beasts: Thank you. I've got a gaming pc, and though I've never used the official high texture pack, I've used other mods that enhance how the game looks. When I first got the game and ran it on this pc, I could run it on the highest settings with only a little trouble, however that's not possible with the mods and enb configuration I'm now using. I did try running the Skyrim HD - 2K Textures Lite version for a while, and while it looked amazing it was rather annoying when the game stuttered rather frequently.

Posted by: King Coin Jan 8 2013, 11:15 PM

Which visual mods are you using? I'm using Climates of Tamriel and I enjoy what it does. I got it mostly for the weather systems it adds, but it tweaks the lighting as well.

In the screen shots you posted, my favorite part of the visual mod is how it makes the firelight more red.

Something else you can try if you really are trying to squeeze performance out of your PC is totally disabling AA and use FXAA. FXAA can somewhat blur textures and make the menus look a little funny, but I used it for a long time before I was able to upgrade my graphics card.

Posted by: Saquira Jan 9 2013, 05:36 PM

Visual Mods:
The one that changes the most is of course the ENB I'm using, Imvisio.
Real Rain
Ethereal elven overhaul, which I only use with my dark elf.
Xenius' Character Enhancement
Towns and villages enhanced, which is a collection of mods
Skyrim Visuals - The Indoors
Skyrim Visuals - The Outdoors

I've looked at Climates of Tamriel and considered using it, do you know if it affects the performance a lot?

Yeah, I love how the firelight is more red when I use the mods, which is a part of the reason to why I've been using them for so long.

I've never used AA with Skyrim much just because of the performance hit.

Posted by: mALX Jan 9 2013, 09:09 PM

I can't believe it is just sitting there letting her stand on its back! That is AWESOME! These are all great shots, and wow did you ever get a closeup of the dragon on that one screen!

Those shots are really quite pretty, though I can't see what any of your characters look like. Maybe my monitor is dark?

Posted by: Saquira Jan 12 2013, 05:57 PM

Okay, I can see them just fine. So yeah, I think your monitor might be a bit dark.

Nice Skyrim screenies, Saquira! Makes me feel right at home

Posted by: Saquira Mar 9 2013, 12:02 PM

Thank you. Yeah, I'm fine, I've just been preoccupied with other games. Which reminds me of the fact that I've got about 15 pictures I haven't uploaded yet

Those are some crazy looking fiery clouds in the first batch. It's the end of the world! !

Posted by: SubRosa Mar 9 2013, 07:05 PM

I am with KC. Those red clouds make me think Skyrim is about to meet the Fallout world!

Oh wow, some of those clouds look like smoke! Neat effect.
