INSANE New Additions for Community Shaders - MUST WATCH , Skyrim SE 2024 (Update Video)

[@Kavou]

Guys read the description! This is an update video to my graphical overhaul, since Community Shaders received a big new update! DO NOT use any lighting mod with this setup, the new CS addons combined with Placed Light and Light Placer make it where CS can now generate their own lighting or support it, which is massive! My apologies for the bad timing and as always thanks for watching!

[@Ratonomist]

You can still use a Weather mod ? (Cathedral for example)

[@Kavou]

Yes. I use Azurite because it works perfectly with CS and Daren's Reshade.

[@EASTWYCK2]

What about Lux?

[@Kavou]

@@EASTWYCK2 Lux is an awesome lighting mod. You either use this setup of CS or you use Lux instead, it's nice to finally have an option.

[@EASTWYCK2]

@@Kavou Can you use Lux with CS? I'm confused, slow, and stupid.

[@froztbytes]

The modders that made these are f*cking insane.

[@OlegLecinsky]

All that work, and it still looks like vanilla graphics with extra bells and whistles. And performance, according to my own tests, is worse than a full blown ENB setup with Cabbage.

[@davidwest3630]

My thoughts exactly. Still haven't seen a community shaders setup that looks as good and performs as well as ENB.

[@basedx.]

... community shaders comes with functional DLSS?

[@Kavou]

It does!

[@TRUEPATRiiOT]

Hey there, very informative video, much appreciated! I've been trying to get Complex Parallax running in my game with CS and I just can't figure it out. Is there any chance you'd make a guide? Literally not a single comprehensive guide exists for getting Complex Parallax working, and if it does, it's years old and is using ENB.

[@Kavou]

Hey check my previous video regarding the graphic mods I am using. Complex Parallax + Skyland's Textures + CS is what I am using on that video.

[@papamuller]

There's a interior brightness mod if it looks too dark

[@Kavou]

That mod is so underrated, very nice call!

[@jjrob114]

@@Kavou What mod?

[@Kavou]

it's called Interior Vs Exterior Brightness Settings if I remember correctly.

[@MrClementk]

What texture are you using? Is that vanilla?

[@Kavou]

I use Noble Skyrim and on top of it I use Skyland AIO which aims for a realistic/vanilla look, check my graphical overhaul video!

[@MrClementk]

@@Kavou Nice I'm currently building around a vanilla look, you may look at this mod, it has 4k upcoming : Vanilla Remastered - Every Single Texture Upscaled and Reworked

[@Kavou]

I'll check it out!

[@CarloGoiff666]

So you still need to install reshade... if so then why bother with CS?

[@Kavou]

HDR does not work with CS anymore, so I use reshade to add slightly some color, otherwise the game looks "grey".

[@anthonym840]

​@@Kavou thats a bummer that HDR is currently broken. Hopefully they fix it so that it works with CS again.

[@anthonym840]

CS is an actual graphical overhaul that adds occlusion, shadows, parallax, subsurface scattering, exierior and interior lighting effects, ( partical lights enabled) and even actual wetness effects when ut rains Reshade doesnt. What reshade does do is add, color templetes, and visual themes, so they work best together since they cover what each lack. U arent under any obligation to use a reshade, but its recommended.

[@AZ_M0MMA]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! It helped me a lot! ❤ Quick question though, I had already installed Reshade before I found this video but I selected SkyrimSE.exe instead of skse64_loader.exe do I have to uninstall it and start over?

[@Kavou]

Yeah, do that then re-run the reshade by selecting skse-loader.exe and thanks!

[@AZ_M0MMA]

@ No, thank you! 🥰 Sorry I’m such a noob and very new to all of this, how do I uninstall Reshade?

[@Kavou]

Run reshade, and then select skse in your Skyrim data as I did in the video, you will get a pop up window giving you 3 choices, third being "uninstall reshade". If you don't see these 3 options that means you don't need to uninstall anything.

[@AZ_M0MMA]

@ Thank you so much! 💖

[@thedude882]

Is there a tutorial for updating CS?

[@Kavou]

This is it. You simply remove all the old CS related mods and install their latest versions as I did in this video

[@thedude882]

What if the Reshade tool has been updated?

[@Kavou]

Reshade will never cause issues to your game, the latest the build the more effects it supports.

[@thedude882]

@@Kavou Right, but what if I used an old version of Reshade, how update to a new one?

[@Kavou]

There is an option as shown in the video, when you install reshade to have it delete all the files of the previous one.

[@ajflink]

I am confused by No Sunlight Through Mountains. On the mod page, it claims it does similar things to Assorted Mesh Fixes. So, is it redundant if you have Assorted Mesh Fixes installed?

[@anthonym840]

CS now has something " simular to Assorted mesh fixes but better passively built in. No sunlight Through Mountains is still needed. No sunlight only effects mountains. Assorted effects things like trees and grass that seeming glow in the dark as if light is still shining on them. U dont need assorted mesh fixes if u have CS installed by default.

[@ajflink]

@anthonym840 Thanks for letting me know!

[@anthonym840]

@@ajflink anytime 👍

[@anthonym840]

@@ajflink No problem. Gotta watch out for each other round here.

[@ajflink]

@@anthonym840 Yep! I am in the process of attempting to compile a set of mods to use that essentially give a more difficult, fair, immersive, and enhanced version of Skyrim that is more or less like a remake without straying from Skyrim's core identity yet also giving a more serious, somber, and something less "You are the invincible Dragonborn" vibe.

Hello if i can ask My game used to work perfectly but now it crash when leading a save Ps i am using mods

[@Kavou]

@@Kavou thank you

[@doomedarts]

@@haouesmahdi2061 and always double-check the mods' requirements and load order, sometimes just a little mistake regarding that may screw up your modlist.

[@whome6496]

I see dlss does it also have fsr?

[@Kavou]

It has DLSS so it propably has FSR too.

[@naysayer8918]

My game is now lagging so bad, How do I fix it?

[@DieWitness]

Install one see how it runs install another see how it runs rinse and repeat until you find the offender if you installed all the mods in the list that is

[@KINGDUCKK]

When i try to press the END key to bring up the menu nothing happens.

[@Kavou]

That means CS Or it's requirents are not properly installed, check the mods you need fpr CS, you might be missing the Microsoft drivers for instance.

[@KINGDUCKK]

@ thanks 🙏🏼. My shaders loaded and everything. I can see a difference it’s just the menu won’t pop up to adjust the community shader.

[@demonletsplays]

Is this only a PC thing

[@Kavou]

Sadly I am not familiar with consoles, so I am not sure.

[@adamfighter358]

of course it is, anything needing skse plugin is only on pc

[@demonletsplays]

@adamfighter358 🙄

[@whome6496]

Does it mean we dont needx lux anymore?

[@Kavou]

Yes.

[@FLfromNY]

Sorry. I don't like what Ive seen from the other 2 mods you suggested...light placer and twilight. I see bugs using 170 Skyrim version on their mod pages. Can you confirm if it works with latest version of Skyrim or not? Thank you Otherwise really nice video.

[@Kavou]

I've played for around 30 hours with this setup and it looks and plays really nice. Twilight makes good usage of Daren's rehade preset which works wonders with CS. I am not sure if it works for the latest AE build.

[@FLfromNY]

@Kavou yes. Doesn't appear yet. I only moved up from 1.6.640 to get no grass mod to work. I have a 7900 xt I just purchased. So I can handle enb. But I really like cs. Being a community and such.

[@FLfromNY]

@@Kavou Light Placer was just updated to 2.0. Crossing fingers.

[@Kavou]

Expect both Light Placer and Placed Light to update multiple times this month. It's a good thing but can be a bit annoying.
