Can't change enb in-game values

[Vektor]

Hey, thanks for reading this.

I'm using the Elder Blood enb preset, but I don't think my issue only applies to it. When I bring up the in-game enb menu (using shift+enter) I can view everything just fine, but almost none of the changes I make do anything at all. I've tried crazy extreme numbers just to make sure, and there is absolutely no change for almost all of them. Even when I click "Apply Changes", the check-boxes and numbers just go back to what they were before. I love enb, but not being able to customize it is more than a little frustrating. For example, the nights in it are beautiful, but entirely too bright and over-saturated for my taste.

Any help would be extremely appreciated. Oh, and I should mention that this is a fresh install of Skyrim from Steam, not on my primary drive, and I've tried removing and re-installing the enb core files and the preset several times using ENB FXAA SweetFX Manager and Remover.

Thanks again for reading.

enbseries, in main folder and in enb folder, could be on "read only" check it

there are names on top of each tab, which file is responsible for it, first check the left tab, from enbseries.ini and try to adjust brightness or gamma

Thanks for the reply. That was a good idea, but I didn't come across any files that were read-only. I tried setting the files to read-only, and then switching them back again, but that didn't seem to work either.

It's just odd because some of the settings work, but most of them don't, and those are the ones I'd want to use to adjust what the game looks like.

I just removed the enb preset and re-installed the enb core files to test just those, and it's still the same thing. I even tried changing the value of brightness in the enbseries.ini file before starting the game and it still had no effect.

For anyone who's having the same problem, deleting enbhelper.dll from the enbseries folder seems to have worked. My bokeh dof is back and working correctly now. Everything. No clue as to why or how or why it effected my game specifically this way in the first place. From everything I've read, if you don't have this file, you're supposed to get it.

That being the case, have I possibly screwed something else up by having deleted this file? Thanks.

Just for reference, here's an excellent guide for installing ENBs:

Glad that you fixed it in your game.

Thanks so much. I am too.

I'm not too sure on an injector working when it is missing it's primary dll file, are you sure it's actually working or are you playing with vanilla gfx now?

First thing I would do is make sure the /steamlibrary folder is in the Root folder and not in /Program Files.

The vast majority of installations should be using the wrapper version, as per the guide, only in a very few cases (as outlined in the guide), would you use the injector version.
