Game is Too Dark

This Project is amazing, it's incredible. As someone who always mods his Bethesda games to the point on instability the fact this pack runs so well should be commended.

However I'm having issues with how dark the game gets. I figured I'd solve that in game with some night vision spell, but that outright doesn't work and I can't seem to figure out why. Even messing with ENB settings did nothing to help.

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks,

Sorry what do you mean by night to night?

This is a post from a forum below. Just make sure u dont change to much at once or u might ruin picture image. Just make a backup of the enb file before changing anything to just be extra cautious.

Not 100% if all these settings are still a thing as was a couple year old posts but should least help tweak it to how u like for what u need.

I also never knew tehre was a Adaption setting that lets ur eyes auto adjust to the darkness in game, might have to look into that one myself.

1st of all you dont need to edit any .ini file in your browser. Press sh ift + ENTER (most ENBs keys use these) to open ENB menu. (sorry if you knew that already it seems to me you tweaked it in browser instead of in game)
2nd when you open ENB menu you can change brightness directly in ENBEFFECTS section of SHADER PARAMETERS window. You can do that separately for nights interiors and more (dusk, dawn etc)
-you can also change minimum adaptation for all of those if you prefer instead
-you can also change brightness under the colorcorrection in enbseries.ini window (the one on the left -2nd window from top) Tweaking brightness and gamma in there can also help you.

Depending on your ENB and effects used in reshade you need to try and tweak it to your liking as one small change of one parameter may change your overall picture.

Sorry for taking so long to get back to this. I have adjusted the ENB settings to be able to see the game. That's fine, if a bit unrealistic. My issue is that I figured using some form of night vision, like vampire night vision or the spell, would solve the problem, but no night vision I have found does anything at all. It makes a sound like it's active but nothing changes vision wise and even changing some values in ENB having to do with night vision changed nothing.

The game isn't unplayable, it's just a pity I have to tarnish the incredible visuals.

The reason the night vision doesn't work is because of the ENB. I'm not sure exactly why but what I do know is if you turn off the ENB (shift + f10 by default I think) then night vision spells will work normally. Like I said idk the reason behind it but it's the ENB that's causing night vision to not work.
