The best graphic mods in Skyrim

It is no longer believed that more than 6 years have passed since the release of The Elder Scrolls 5 Skyrim. The developed world of "Ancient Scrolls" does not cease to amaze, and it is quite difficult, almost impossible, to complete absolutely all tasks and explore every corner of Skyrim. Especially when you consider that the missing pair of tasks can always be added using mods. One of the most popular mods is graphic. Over 6 years, PC power has grown dramatically, so why not play the more beautiful, detailed Skyrim? What graphic mods exist for the game?

Standard texture enhancement

It is interesting that not only the most devoted fans of the game series, but also the developers themselves thought about improving the graphics. This, you see, happens infrequently, so that the creators after the release of the game modify the graphics, and not bad from the beginning. Whoever says anything, but compared to the previous parts of the series, Tamriel has noticeably changed, after Skyrim, the somewhat cartoonish Cyrodiil and the atmospheric and quite high-quality for its time Vvanderfell look even somewhat empty.

Graphics evolution




The harsh northern nature gives the game charm, and the elaboration of details allows you to completely immerse yourself in the game. So, the developers decided to slightly refine their brainchild by releasing the DLC High-Res Texture Pack. The result is something like this:

The picture, albeit a little, but still changed in the direction of greater contrast, more detail. But there is no limit to perfection, and the creators of mods took matters into their own hands.

Separate mods to improve races

Of course, many mods relate to improving the appearance of the people of Tamriel, then the players are not satisfied with too dirty bodies, then the nose is not so painted. Urgent, urgent plastic surgeons at Skyrim! Here the measures have too crooked noses! For example, it transforms the races of the elves of the Ethereal Elven Overhaul mod.

Mod race




There are a lot of graphic mods that improve races. Some people like to turn their heroes into top models. True, sometimes some graphic Skyrim mods can get out of the ENT. It may be beautiful, but still non-atmospheric.

Separate equipment upgrade mods

Talented mod developers and all kinds of weapons, armor, things did not pass by. After all, it is much more pleasant to find a really beautiful sword in the dungeon, which is worthy of Dovakin himself fighting them. And sometimes they just get bored with the same clothes from all the NPS of the province. Once again, Skyrim graphic mods come to the rescue.





For example, you can’t get around the mod on the guard armor replicator. After all, absolutely the same guards in all cities, only with different color schemes - this is boring.

There are modifications with new textures for products, things, herbs, ingredients, coins, the Barenziah crown and almost any other thing in Skyrim. Again, there are mods that harmoniously complement the game world, while others are created for fun, this is an amateur modification. Take, for example, the transformation of gold coins into Ukrainian hryvnias.

Mod builds

And, of course, there are large-scale, large in volume, large in the number of changes graphic modes of Skyrim, the 5th part from the series The Elder Scrolls. As a rule, such modifications are installed in the singular, it is unrealistic to install 2 global mods, they will probably come into conflict. It is these graphic Skyrim mods that are the best. Such modifications most often require considerable expenditures of computer resources: from the space on the hard disk - the weight of the modification can be several gigabytes - up to a certain level of processor, video card, RAM.

traced vegetation




Of course, first of all, such graphic Skyrim mods affect the nature of the province, the entire external and internal world as a whole, this is what surrounds the player throughout the passage.

The smallest details are worked out, each rug, each bush, each barrel, each log in the fireplace, even if you run through it all the same, without looking at what is burning there. Modifications improve the look of flying snowflakes, give photorealism to the sun's rays. As a result, from all these trifles an incredible picture is formed, which incredibly captivates.

beautiful water




An example of such a modification is TES 5: Skyrim Super mega beautiful (beauty) + RealVision ENB.

But, having installed some mods with similar graphics, it is generally impossible to play.

But how beautiful they look! Perhaps someday the hardware can easily withstand such a load.

But still, with the transformation of "Skyrim" you should not get carried away: an excessive number of graphic mods, especially not matched to each other, can destroy the fragile atmosphere, which is famous for the series of "Ancient Scrolls". If you really want to change the game radically, it is better to choose the assembly of the Skyrim graphic mods and install it strictly according to the instructions.
