About this image

Got most of my vanilla engine/MWSE mod list copied over, purged the handful of MWSE exclusive mods that didn't work, and started a new character.

As much as I love my MWSE mod list I'm simply too tired of getting 20 FPS in Vivec. OpenMW will get a comfortable 30-40 FPS where MWSE struggles to stay in the upper 20s.

Anyway, while my MWSE mod list definitely has shader mods that look better (in my opinion), OpenMW's performance boost can help me cope. I'm yet to dabble in OpenMW's custom shader options, as evident by this screenshot being visually just stock OpenMW with HD textures. In time I'm hoping it's modding scene will mature as quickly as MWSE/MGE has.

Also OpenMW's LODs don't cripple FPS like MGE so that's cool too.

    There are probably still quite a bit of ways in which you optimize your settings.cfg and get even moar fps back - specifically the [Terrain] and [Cells] section (and of course [Water]), the openMW discord can be pretty helpful on specifics. Because you're going to end up installing a bunch of shaders :)
