REQUIRED MODS FOR THIS EDIT TO WORK AS EXPECTED:
Enhanced Wasteland Preset by Razed: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/40/
Vivid Weathers by MangaClub: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/15466/
ENB Series 307 for Fallout 4 by Boris Vorontstrov: http://enbdev.com/mod_fallout4_v0307.htm
First things first, (hello!), this is a very simple mod, all it does is edit the ENB settings to your existing Enhanced Wastleand Preset for FO4!
The original settings are fantastic (credits to Razed), however, I am in the minor majority that prefer an even darker, realistic ambient lighting look in my games. I also found most popular ENB DoF (Depth of Field) effects not to my taste, until I found Insane Power Burger's INSANE ENB Preset (NOW INCLUDED IN THIS FILE - Credit to Insane Power Burger)
Ambient lighting is turned down, aswell as birghtness/gamma, and a few shader tweaks to make it look more, in my opinion, like the human eye would see lighting (forget the white backdrop lighting aiding you to see enemies!)
I admit, this ISN'T for everybody, some prefer to see everything at all times and prefer more of a 'game' feel, but I am in the camp of Immersion > Gameplay. I like things dark, realistic, cinematic, hydromatic, automatic... and feeling the need to take a screenshot every few minutes of gameplay.
Expect slightly darker nights so bring a torch! Slightly more vivid sunrises/sunsets! More glare from the sun! And slightly more saturated colours!
USE MAIN OR OPTIONAL, NOT BOTH!
Keep in mind I use many of the popular texture packs, such as:
'Vivid Fallout', A Touch of Green (Flora), Langley's HD Texture Workshop, Valius' High Res
Textures, Stromberg's Retexture Project, FlaconOil's HD ReTexture, FAR
(Far Away Area Reform LODS), OpTicTrukZ's Plants and Herbs, Haul'd Out
2K Texture Pack, and much much more misc retextures
(A link to the visual graphic mods I used from Reddit: (https://www.reddit.com/r/FalloutMods/comments/4vmq3n/fo4_the_75_texture_mods_i_use)
ALSO KEEP IN MIND: I LOCK MY FPS WITH THE ENBLOCAL FILE AND USE HARDWARE V-SYNC, PLEASE CHANGE THESE SETTINGS ACCORDING TO YOUR PREFERENCES. ONLY USE ENB V-SYNC, GAME V-SYNC, OR HARDWARE V-SYNC.
Please be kind when informing me of any errors with the files, how this mod is presented, etc etc, as this is my second mod on this site, I may be
missing something very obvious/required mods for this to work properly!
