📋 About This Mod
This mod increases the saturation in the game by just the right ammount. The result is wonderful, rich and lush colors!
The saturation is sometimes very noticeable and fresh, making colors pop and sometimes it is subtle, and subdued, it depends on where you are in skyrim, and what weather it is. However i have made sure that the image never becomes oversaturated. Rich colors are great, but too much becomes ugly again.
The great thing about this mod is that it makes skyrim prettier without a single fps drop.
I was Inspired by Aplestormy´s mod "Immersive Saturation boost"
Technical info

Its a simple esp file, just place in data folder via NMM or manually and you are good to go!
