What this mod includes:

ENBSeries Binary 0. 473+ is a requirement for this mod to work Get it here

Installation

• Mod Manager / Manual Extraction to the Skyrim Data folder.

FAQ:

1) Will this work without ENBSeries?

• The meshes and textures will work, but you will not have normal map effects or specularity.

2) Are there any big hits in performance?

• This feature has been in development for 2 days only and throughout testing, no significant drop in performance was noted. This of course could change depending on your grass settings & grass mods installed.

3) Is this feature compatible with other Grass mods?

• Yes! But patches will need to be made to them to enable Complex Grass effects.

4) Will this break existing Grass mods?

• No! They will be ignored by ENBSeries as they do not contain the required texture atlas layout. They should however still gain some additional lighting benefits.

• If for some reason the files do not work, cause crashes or any other problems, please do not hesitate to contact me.

• All screenshots are taken directly from the game and resized down from 1920x1080 to 1280x720. No other editing has been done.
