✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 528 endorsements and nearly 37k downloads
- Targets a specific visual annoyance (DLSS artifacts underwater) that many ENB/upscaler users notice
- Actively maintained, last updated September 2024
⚠️ Cons
- Only works with Skyrim Upscaler's DLSS mode, so it's useless if you don't use that specific upscaler
- Requires Depth of Field to be on and maxed out, which can hurt performance on weaker rigs
- Niche fix—if you don't care about underwater visuals, this mod does nothing for you
For Skyrim players using Skyrim Upscaler with DLSS who want cleaner underwater visuals without those ugly sharp-edged blurs. If you're on a different upscaler or don't use DoF, skip this—it's not for you.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Skyrim Upscaler installed and DLSS enabled before adding this mod, or it won't do anything.
- In your Skyrim Upscaler settings, confirm Depth of Field is turned on and set to maximum—this mod assumes that setup.
- If you're using a mod manager, just drop the files in and let it overwrite; no load order tweaks needed for this one.
