DONT DO THAT :
Each time i tried using his ini files, my Skyrim + VIreio crashed 100% of the time.[color=#00BFFF][b][url]http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/30936[/url][/b][/color] wrote:install the mod's ini files take my optimized ULTRA skyrimprefs.ini and skyrim.ini from optional files section and copy it to your Documents\My Games\Skyrim
(if your machine is fast enough! and be careful with AMD cards, some people had probs with my ini-files like flickering)
Instead, edit your inis manually:

INSTALL THE VIREIO BETA12:[color=#00BFFF][b][url]http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/30936[/url][/b][/color] wrote:copy all the other files from my ENB to your Skyrim folder
install Skyrim_Particle_Patch_for_ENB-All-In-One and if you have problems also 1.6 W.A.T.E.R. COMPATIBILITY PATCH from my optional files
get the d3d9.dll 0.157 out of the wrapper folder from Boris Vorontsov's site and copy it to skyrim folder too, if you have problems with 0.157, try 0.139
Deactivate AA / SSAO in game settings AND/OR over videodriver if you have set it there! The ENB has it's own EdgeAA and SSAO, otherwise it would give you errors like "Hardware Antialiasing detected...Quality reduced..." and decreased performance.
you need to daisy-chain Vireio's own d3d9.dll in order to make the ENB compatible with Perception:
-Take the d3d9.dll, hijackdll.dll and libfreespace.dll files from Vireio, rename the d3d9.dll, then copy all 3 in skyrim's directory
-You'll now have the ENB's d3d9.dll and Vireio's renamed d3d9.dll, hijackdll.dll and libfreespace.dll in the Skyrim directory
-Update the enbseries.ini to daisy chain Vireio's renamed d3d9.dll (d3d9Vireio.dll in my example)
Note: don't touch the ENB's d3d9.dll, it has to be the first to load. If you change it's name, or try to daisy chain it, you'll disable it.
Launch Vireio
Launch skyrim and set your game to LOW QUALITY (at first for testing, when it works well you can try higher qualities)
You now have Skyrim with ENB working in Vireio. But chances are you're gonna get clipping/disappering NPCs and enemies:
Correct this by opening enbseries.ini and putting this variable to false:
[EFFECT]
EnableSunRays=false
ABOUT FPS IN VIREIO + ENB
No doubt that with 15 or more HD texture packs installed + the ENB + Vireio double-displaying the game, you're gonna loose some FPS.
-Ardhal gained 10 FPS by boosting his CPU from 3.6 to 3.8
-I went from 20-25FPS in ultra high quality to 50-55 in low. And with all of Realvision's recommended HD mods, the game still looks stunning even in low quality setting
