I've been playing Skyrim again, like so many and discovering many wonderful mods and the joys of the variety of ENBs that greatly improve the graphics, from giving it a cinematic style to super realism. I've tried a number, I personally really like Superb ENB. Unfortunately, one thing all these ENB's seem to do is make the games interiors, especially dungeons, and deep nights.. extremely dark. I don't mind some some darkness. A bit of contrast can really add to the immersion of some of the dungeons, but when it's so dark I am forced to use a torch, a 30 second spell or nightvision in order to actually see the floor, that's just too much. Realistic? Sure, but not something I want to see in a game.

I've spent hours trying to edit enbseries.ini or realistic lighting.ini to try and tweak these things but nothing seems to have a major impact. So I figure I'd post on here to see if anyone knows of a solid ENB or custom .ini files for an existing ENB that brings up the brightness in dungeons. I really want to use an ENB, they add so much to the visuals of the game. But right now I'm just finding the game unplayable.

Note: I don't normally have brightness issues. I'm using a high end LED monitor that is nice and bright with brightness settings at 50%.

Forget the ENBs and use

- Realistic Lighting w/ customization
- Imaginator
- Dyna Vision
- Real Sunglare
- Enhanced Stars
- Enhanced nights
- Wicked Moons

You can get the exact same thing with no performance hit. Plus you can adjust the settings on the fly...in-game. You can make the interiors, exteriors, dungeons, caves or what ever to your liking.

I have a few of those mods. I've never heard of the first few besides realistic lighting. I'll try them out, thx

The ENBs really shine in shadow detail. But even that isn't enough for me to notice, without looking at two pics side by side. If you are just sold on ENB, there is this. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=17400 It might help you in making your choice.
