Skyrim SE blur while moving. I cant stand it!

[XxXBman006XxX]

I was super excited to start up Skyrim SE. But I cant even play it at the moment. It is absolutely crisp and clear until I turn or pivot. In open areas it does not seem so bad. But in a dungeon hallway or a small room looking around and looting, it is just blurry. But when i stop to say loot a chest, everything is crisp again only to blur immediately as i start to move. Moving forward doesn't seem to make this happen but from side to side and turning it is every time. My eyes are constantly trying to focus I and its killing me.

No matter what ini or setting I change I cant seem to get a clear picture while moving. I did not remember having this sort of problem with blurred vision with movement in Skyrim LE.

Just to make sure I wasn't crazy, I fired up Skyrim LE and everything is smooth. Spinning in circles, everything stays clear and crisp. It stays in focus.

Can Skyrim SE look and play like the Skyrim LE the way i describe it? Smooth without all the blur?

I can usually fix these things myself, but its been two days and I am about to give up and just play the LE. I really wanted to try out the new version and some fishing too.

Please, if anyone thinks they can help me, I would be very appreciative.

This is vanilla btw. No mods. Clean install. Turned off TAA. & most Blurs in INI.

Can you show us a video or screenshot of this problem if you can because it could help us help you with this problem better and we might be able to identify what it might be from it.

SE is locked to 60 fps. might be that

I had this exact problem, and in my case it wasn't anything to do with the game. I had my MSI screen set to "fast" on it's "response time" setting (In it's OSD). The moment i set that to "normal", all blurring went away.

I don't know if it'll be called that for other monitor brands, but check your monitor's settings. Almost all of them have their own "OSD" (on screen display) button somewhere on it. (Mines a "Hat" switch on the back) and perhaps there's a quick response setting or something with similar wording.

IIRC, there's a "Motion Blur" setting in the Options.

Use console type "sisme 0"(no quotes), hit enter, problem solved, thank you.

well, no, don't do that, that gets rid of all of them... it's a good test, though, to see if it's a dragon's fire breath or one of the radial blurs that's stuck, is what it sounds like...

if 'sisme 0' fixes your blur problem, great! now you now know it's an imagespace modifier that's causing it, but that's just step 1. go ahead and re-enable them with 'sisme 1'. (SetImageSpaceModifierEnable) besides this doesn't get rid of it, just disables applying all imagespace modifiers for this session, you'll have to do it again everytime you start up til it magically eventually fixes itself. it's better to just turn off the thing. but it takes some work, sorry.

since you're not using mods, that makes this a little tedious, because it's dependent on your load order of the DLCs... but because you're not using mods it's a fairly short list. anyway do 'help imod 4' and start scrolling up and look at the entries that begin with IMAD: noting the #s at the end...

IMAD: AbsorbBlueImod (000ABF18) ' '
IMAD: AbsorbGreenImod (000ABF19) ' '
IMAD: AbsorbRedImod (000ABF17) ' '
...

there's probably 20ish. just start at the top of the list... open notepad, and copy over (well not copy 'copy', use your eyeballs and remember it 'copy') this is a lot easier in windowed mode so you can see both at the same time, though!)

copy each number over, and you'll preface each one with rimod... remove imagespace modifier. case doesn't matter those aren't letters they are hexadecimal numbers, and you don't need leading zeros unless you just like even formatting... so, for example,

rimod abf17
rimod abf18
rimod abf19
...

when you're done, save this in your Skyrim Special Edition game directory under steamapps\common\ as something obvious, 'turn_off_imods.txt'

and then in-game, do 'bat turn_off_imods' anytime this goofiness happens.

but if you are not against mod use, just haven't done it yet, and don't mind installing SKSE and a mod, there's various imagespace modifier and spell effect cancellation utilities to do this crap for you, almost no typing required! There's also a script for xEdit that goes through all IMAD and makes this file for you, but if you've never used xEdit it might take you longer to get comfortable with it and installing the script that generates it, than just doing it manually.
