Community Shaders + ReShade looks just as good as ENB

[Bad Distraction Carnifex]

With all the Community Shaders addons enabled, PBR textures, Placed Lights and a Reshade to adjust the color/add additional blood, etc I think it looks better than even the best ENBs like Cabbage and even though the performance is fairly similar I find the frame pacing of Community Shaders to be much better.

Might be worth trying out if you're tired of Plastic looking Skyrim with ENB stutters.

That's funny, considering I've seen the complaint that PBR makes everything look like plastic.

No Reshade or PBR. Used Autoparallax for this shot. I will probably soon try PGPatcher for parallax, and maybe also Reshade. I haven't made up my mind yet.

BTW: using the nVidea RTX 4060Ti GPU.

They probably didn't patch the PBR textures/meshes properly.

First two images seem to use PBR, which I don't like at all. Third image also with PBR, although I'm not sure.

I'd guess you didn't patch them properly then, since your screenshots look like plastic (especially the first one)

See the difference between how light reacts to the stone and the wood in the 1st one?

That's Skyland PBR (Bits n Pieces PBR too). All 3. Northern Roads PBR too.

All I see is light reacting to plastic.

IDK. It's a little too shiny. But That's it.

Impossible. I'm using Skyland PBR and it doesn't look like plastic like that.

If my game would look like that, I would instantly ditch all PBR. I think PBR is the worst thing that has been added to CS. At the moment trying to figure out Reshade, but maybe also ditching that, but giving it just another try. Next to test is PGPatcher (ParallaxGen). If it doesn't work out, I'll stick with my config mentioned above.

Could be the reshade I'm using. But I 100% swear, I'm using Skyland, Skybits PBR and Nothern Roads PBR in that priority when patching.
