Skyrim is a game that even nearly eight years later can still boast amazing visuals thanks to the right selection of Graphics mods and ENBs. Over the years, The Elder Scrolls 5’s modding community has ensured that its visuals never fell behind and even in 2019 it’s possible to make the game look amazing. The most often asked question I receive is what Skyrim graphics mods I personally use and today we’ll finally answer that question!

At some point, Skyrim is going to be so evolved by the playerbase that The Elder Scrolls 6 is going to be a letdown in comparison.

These textures have so many tiny details, my computer will be murdered to death.

Running these mods, I can now smelt iron ore using my cpu.

I love that you do these reviews, but... fauna = animals, flora = plants.

Red Rocks 4k has been deleted.
Granite Mountains is a good alternative.

Bethesda is a genius company. Make a game that obviously needs improvements in many departments while still offering a shitload of content, story and a great world so that it would become the perfect game to mod. There are thousands of mods that fix bugs, better the combat, better armorsets, better immersion, better actor models, literally better everything. Skyrim is the perfect game to mod and thats why its as alive as any other game. Btw.. Who the fuck plays vanilla anymore?

"Enhanced Textures Detail" what it does is basicly increase the texel density of UVs and make the textures tile more. Clever!

This mod list still holds up 👍 Nowadays I swap NAT/NVT for vivid weather since I can't be bothered installing an enb. Red rocks is no longer available so swap for skyland granite mountains. I think I used to mix this with the verdant grass mod but now you have options like folkvangr (i'm not liable if your computer explodes). I also use a couple small mods like enhanced blood textures and artefakes unique artifacts.

Enhanced Lights n FX is such a beautiful mod. Highly recommended.

Refers to plants as fauna twice than says "flora overhaul".

Not sure if trolling.

Those are great mods indeed, I use most of them! Very popular. Although I highly recommend taking a look at Majestic Mountains, and if you're savvy with modding, you can get a combination of ELFX + ELE + Relighting Skyrim to work together with an ENB and a weather overhaul for absolutely stunning lighting! My favorite two choices for weather mods are Obsidian Weathers, and Climates of Tamriel with Vividian/Vivid Weathers patches. And as for LOD, DynDOLOD is simply amazing! Praise Sheson, may our firstborns continue to serve him obediently.
