📋 About This Mod

First of all, sorry for my poor English, it's not my native language. Hope you can get what I mean.

It's a color preset for water for enb(only shades of skyrim option) by Mindflux in nexus. For personal taste, I try to achieve the balance between fantasy and realism. You can see what it will look like in image link.

I highly recommend to use it with tkv enb which is avaliable in Toxic's discord, for this mod is tested with that enb.

Q: My water looks really ugly when using this mod.

A: It's normal. Honestly I think the original water for enb is perfect enough, this preset is only designed for certain enb.

Q: Lore friendly?

A: tkv with nat3. 03, which is available in toxic's discord.

Q: Other mods used in screenshots?

A: I don't know. those pictures are not taken by me. Sorry.

Mindflux for his(her?) amazing water for enb.

Idealt for his(her?) incredible enb.
