Showcase video about the Skyrim community shaders mods, including how to adjust the settings and performance.

For anyone looking to switch from ENB to Community Shaders you should probably pair it with a ReShade that you like, Veyrah ReShade or Darenii ReShade are some quite nice ones, hoping to see a lot more ReShade presets as people move away from ENB.

Darenii Reshade with CS support was such an easy replacement for ENB for me. The game looks as fabulous as I want, running at 60fps+ at almost all times instead of sub 40 in most exteriors with ENB. Anybody with a mid-range or worse PC who wants a little-to-no nonsense alternative NEEDS to use and support Community Shaders!

Mod Spotlights like this help the mods growth. I never thought of using the shaders till now. maybe i'll invest on my next modding adventure

[siyzerix]

Since it doesn't use ENB, you can use the free version of the dlss/fsr/xess mod to boost frames on lower end systems.

I just came back to skyrim modding for more than 5 years. and this is a big surprise

Perfect for people like me who prefer to use Reshade than ENB. Thank you for your video about this very important series of mods, I totally overlooked them for any reason...

[JohnKasarinlan]

Community Shaders is indeed amazing. I use with Rustic Weathers and Dareni Reshade and you can have great graphics without much performance loss. What's great about as well is that it will continue to improve. Once the light limit fix, subsurface scattering, and Ambient Occlusion is released then it will reach further great quality.

[JonnyCrackers]

Really cool. I like that there's another alternative to ENB out there. ENB still looks better, so I'm gonna hold out until more features get added, but it's looking quite nice so far.

This IS impressive on grasses. Very similar to ENB complex grass with what you've shown here. This looks very promising.

Great video! I've looked at Community Shaders in the past and have wondered what they would look like in game.
It was great to see a video example, and I must say, I'm impressed!
I think I would like to try a mod list with these instead of an ENB just to see how I like it.

Mythical Ages + all the shaders in this video + a reshade that adds some tint, colour, and dpx has really brought me close to ENB. Keep in mind the screen space shadows are what eats up a lot of performance - the real time fine tuning of those is a miracle.

Bro these Vids are, all of them, absolutely awesome man. Your contribution to this modding community is astounding Cheers

[denniswade]

Thank you much for this video! I have been wondering for a while now what these community shaders actually look like in game, and it was great to watch your video.
Good timing, too, as I am just building a new modlist!
I have a Ryzen 5 5600 with a 6800xt and 32gb of ram, and still get hit with high fps loss when using enbs.
I installed all of the mods needed for this and was very happy with how it all looks in game.
. . . . and my fps is waaaay up!
I combined it with Azurite Weathers 2, which was made for use with the community shaders, and they match up very nice!
I'm keeping these mods in my load order, as I really do like the look and the high fps.

Thank you for explaining this mod so well, keep it up!

[miggyluv]

Awesome video. Careful of the wrath of Boris though! 😂

[Mysterialic]

Love them. Definitely can see the improvements over vanilla. ENB is too taxing for me.

[kinda]

The grass in this game needs a specular map or something like that! Reacting to direct light is a huge step up.

[obrgrs]

Using ENB wouldnt be a problem for me if Boris hadn't gone off the rails. Opening my game to see an essay on why he's so great and community shaders is so bad is really off-putting...

[rockin]

Keep making these videos man it’s awesome

As an Xbox player I was quite out of my depth here. However it’s still high quality content and as such you still get a like, a comment, and a complete watch-through. 👍🏻
