SOFTWARE
ENBSeries 0.217 or newer binaries (older do not have memory patches), donwload
it from http://enbdev.com

HARDWARE
OS:
Patch work with both x86 and x64 OS, but to see full potential i advise to
run Windows Vista/7/8 x64. Less effective will be with x86 versions of Vista/7/8
and very uneffective with Windows XP x86.
RAM:
Greater means better, but optimal with current version of the patch is 8 Gb,
in that case 4 Gb will be fully utilized by the game and 4 for OS and cache.
VRAM:
Greater means better, users with NVidia Titan 6 GB will have amazing stability
results, because patch use video memory as much as possible.

// ISSUES AND BUG FIXES
//++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1) If you have crashes at startup, make sure no other software hooking in to
game process, for example some antiviruses, screen capturing tools, videocard
monitoring or overclocking. Afterburner, D3D Overrider, EVGA, ATI Tray Tools,
DXTory, Fraps, XFire - some versions of these software incompatible with
wrapper version of ENBSeries, so use injector version or disable those utils.
Also Skyrim Performance Monitor may produce this behavior, try without it or
set in it's options D3D9 mods compatibility.
2) Lower performance or/and stuttering with AMD/ATI videocards is frequent
issue and to fix it set in enblocal.ini ReduceSystemMemoryUsage=false, but
then CTDs will be more frequent (but much better than vanilla game anyway).
3) If stuttering bother too much, edit enblocal.ini file vriables
ExpandSystemMemoryX64, ReduceSystemMemoryUsage(especially this one),
DisableDriverMemoryManager.
4) ALT-TAB not work in fullscreen mode. This is temporary solved by forcing
borderless window mode in enblocal.ini file, i need some time to write another
code.
5) Game by default forcing vsync to be on, in enblocal.ini parameter exist which
toggle it, so modify if you have issues with screen tearing.
6) Infinite loading or very low frame rate is probably your individual rig
specific,
set then EnableFPSLimiter=false
7) Creation Kit (CK) is not work properly, delete d3d9.dll (or don't run injector
version if it used instead of wrapper) or use another enblocal.ini which don't have
memory fixes enabled. Future versions may work, not sure yet.

//++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
// INSTALL
//++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1) Download "ENBSeries 0.193" or newer version.
2) Unpack ENBSeries files from "WrapperVersion" folder to your Skyrim game
folder where TESV.exe file is. For some users "InjectorVersion" should be
used to fix compability issues with other software or for laptops with Optimus.
3) Select proper enblocal.ini to your hardware file from ENBoost archive folders
and extract it to game folder by replacing the same one from ENBSeries.
4) Run the game.

//++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
// UNISTALL
//++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
1) Open your Skyrim game folder, delete d3d9.dll from there (not from system
folder!) and file enblocal.ini.

//++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
// FUTURE PLANS
//++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Fix for AMD cards (ReduceSystemMemoryUsage is slow); streaming of resources; may
be 64 bit support (if it required much).
