--ENB Series Mod: Introduction--


The Russian modder -Boris Vorontsov- offered his ENB Series mod for several years now. He developed it for different engines respectively games (most of them older ones) and thus upgraded their graphics.

To achieve this Boris Vorontsov mainly uses new effects, which he integrates into the games with the ENB Series mods, or sets the rendering path to a new level (from DirectX 8 to DirectX 9 for example). Among the effects he uses are diverse Blur filters, SSAO (Screen Space Ambient Occlusion) and Indirect Lighting - both techniques provide better lighting and shadows.

  

                        --ENB Series Mod: Requirements--


Besides the game and the appropriate ENB Series mod you need a Shader Model 2 graphics card. Thus Nvidia cards since the Geforce FX series (but according to Boris it should be at least a Geforce 6) and AMD cards since the Radeon 9500 are compatible. In regards of video memory you should at least have 128 MiByte, since according to Boris Vorontsov the ENB Series mods are rather hungry for VRAM. System memory and CPU are subordinated components as the mods are concerned.


                        
                        --ENB Series Mod: INSTALLATION--


To use the mods, just extract the files into the game directory that contains the exe file of the game.
Example: for fs9 extract the files into you main "FS9" Folder. 



                          --STARTING ENBseries effect--


After game start the mod deactivated by default, to activate it use key combination shift+f12.



                               --enbseries.ini--


Effects are controlled via the enbseries.ini file, this file is contained into "HDEv2" / "ENBseries-Bloom Setup.zip" file.   

I got a configuration that provides >>> optimum performance <<<, the impact on fps with and without the effect is minimal.
Great settings which makes FS9 look awesome! 


To install my enbseries.ini just extract the one located into "HDEv2" folder and paste it into your main "FS9" folder and replace.
