About this video
After a month of modding Skyrim to near visual perfection (as far as the engine and my GTX 970 allow), I've decided to make a (longish) showcase video.
Many many thanks to all the modders who've spent countless hours providing these amazing textures for the world to enjoy. You guys are awesome!
(Apologies for the missing music fade out at the end, YT wont let me edit it in.)

I hope I didn't surprise you too much.
I was referring to some of the flora I saw in your video. It reminded me of Oblivion. It didn't look bad, just different.
I like color too, and you're right, there are a lot of map areas that are drab in the vanilla game to say the least. ENB Real Vision
and many of it's required mods fixed that for me. I didn't choose any of the required mods that would add any new flora tho.
I actually have a lot of the same mods installed as you do.
It is very hard to get so many creatures, people, birds and fauna populating the Skyrim world to function properly.
I went through a lot of CTDs before I was able to get a stable game. I have to accept the fact that my FPS will never go
much above 40fps when I'm outside. When I'm inside, dungeons or dwellings, my FPS is between 50 and 60fps tho.
I love the Skyrim world so much! It's a nice place to escape for a while.
I almost moved to Germany when I was a child.
I was a GI brat and my father was almost stationed in Germany. He didn't re-enlist tho, so that was that.
I think I would have liked living in Germany. I would like to add you as a friend, if you'd like.
What do you mean by changes to the world? I tried to be quite lore friendly, not adding any outrages clothing and such. But I did detest the drab look of the vanilla colors. It's like the winter grayness where I live in Germany. No thanks! I tried mods that add more NPCs and it crashed my game. I assume the GTX 970 couldn't handle it. Or I had a mod conflict. Not sure.
I've always meant to check out the Special Edition and mod it differently with a proper city mod and so on with my GTX 1080Ti but haven't got round to it, still obsessed with FO4 settlement building. *g*
I love the color of the water and the look of Whiterun, truly amazing, how the game from 2011 is still alive and getting better and better!
Have a nice day mate!

Project ENB to me personally is still the best preset. I love it so much. I used RealVision before on my laptop for 200h. It was already a huge improvement. But it still was too dark and gloomy for me. I wanted warm colors this time, and this ENB does just that without resulting in washed out skies. Too bad Project ENB absolutely murders my frame rate. Cuts it in more than half. I could run RealVision with 100 texture mods smooth as silk on my much inferior laptop. *sigh*
Ultimate HD Fire Effects is awesome, great work! I'm enjoying it a lot!
I have a question though.... Do u use ur own Skyrim and Skyrim prefs ini or is it from somewhere else. It would be nice if u could upload ur one or send a link of the ini file that u use from other mods
also, are there additional character re-textures besides those of the children?
If I feel like making another video, I'll edit the music pieces better before uploading. Still new to creating videos. I'm happy you enjoyed it anyway.
