The ENB of the Apocalypse

The New Vegas version of this ENB can be found here

Description: This is a lighting overhaul of Fallout 3 that uses:

• []Boris Vorontsovs’ ENB series (SHIFT+F12 TO TOGGLE)[]SweetFX by CeeJay.dk (SCROLL LOCK to TOGGLE)

The aim is to vastly improve the lighting while retaining the post-apocalyptic atmosphere that is represented so wonderfully in Fallout 3.

Installation:

• []First you need to download these ENB files.[]Unzip the downloaded file; it contains 2 folders, Wrapper and Injector; copy the files from the “Wrapper” folder to your Fallout 3 folder (Not DATA!)(Note: Some of you may have to use the “Injector” files instead, please read the Injector/Wrapper note below)[]Download the file uploaded here, unzip it, and copy all the files inside the 'Core' folder to your Fallout 3 folder (Again NOT DATA!), overwrite when prompted.[]Disable AA in Falloutlauncher.exe (SweetFX adds post-process AA with a lower performance cost)[]Run Fallout 3![]OPTIONAL: The ‘Optional Effects’ folder contains optional effects (Really!); in order to use them just copy them to your Fallout 3 folder (Overwrite)

Common Issues: These are the common problems that may be faced by ENB users:

• [] Weird Flickering/White Squares on screen: This is because you have not switched Anti-aliasing off in Falloutlauncher.[] A lot of Jaggies: By default SMAA is enabled through SweetFX; if jaggies still persist, it most likely means that SweetFX isnt working.[]MSI Afterburner OSD/ FRAPS: Overlays are not compatible with ENB, they will cause CTDs even before the main menu; FRAPS over-rides SweetFX, so if you have FRAPS on before you start the game, SweetFX wont start and only the ENB will work.[]Falloutlauncher Settings: All Antialiasing must be disabled (even graphic card control panel) and HDR must be enabled.[]You need the latest version of Direct X[]Note that the interiors of this ENB are slightly on the darker side (has to be kept that way in order to preserve the nights), I recommend using Flashlight or SmoothLight - Pip-Boy Light Enhancer
• Make sure that SweetFX is working: there is a big difference between it being ON/OFF, check the screens below. (Left=OFF)
