Hey guys, right now I am kind of stuck in regards to what ENB to go with. Up until now I have been using Murphys ENB V1. This has so far proven to be the best overall ENB in regards to cars that were made for ELS6 to cars in ELS8. Day and Night modes looked great and my FPS was more than acceptable. 

 

However lately I have been noticing my Ambers and Reds seem to blend together, the distinction is not so clear. So I tried VISION and CryENB V3. 

 

Vision I thought looked the best, but had weird things taking place at night. First I could literally see a ghost image of my car anytime I accelerated or slowed down and this happened with all other traffic as well (DOF OFF). Very odd, second the car body aluminum reflection were way to wet looking, almost like aluminum foil (I am sure this can be tweaked somewhere). The red and blue lights however looked fantastic, but older cars especially the ambers on some older CHP models for ELS6 were way to BRIGHT!

 

CryENB V3 was a nice balance between the two, but FPS vs the rest on this was pretty lousy. 

 

I have an i7 2700K at 4.8Ghz and an EVGA 780GTX 4gb card. Single monitor so I know I have the horsepower. 

 

Can you guys provide any insider information as to what you may recommend I do or check out?

Okay so you would recommend CryENB, out of the box V3 to me could use some tweaking. WHat edits or settings do you guy use?

What would be a good ENB that doesn't eat too much FPS?

I use CryENB v3 with auto focus depth of field, the ELS preset, and high quality motion blur. For a better experience download DKT70's HD roads and trees : http://www.mediafire.com/download/vc2lgu92pmcny47/DKT+HD+textures+%28optional%29.7z

People like to combine Cry and erm...um...some ELS ENB together, using the visualsettings from the ELS one and combining it with the rest of Cry.

Personally, I wouldnt use one, I think the game looks good without one, that is just me but if I would go with one try Cry.

HD roads can cause crashes and texture loss, especially when travelling from one island to the other, so I don't think it'd be a good advice for them if they have trouble running CryENB v3 already.

Mine has done that so I wouldn't know, thank for the info though :)

Here is a very handy web article that explains what every setting in the ENB.ini is.

I have a FX-8350 at 4.82Ghz and a GTX 770. I think it's strange that you get lag with those specs. I get a very good framerate and it's constant. Hmmm.

Do you think my problem was installing ENBs over one another? From Murphy, to Vision, to Cry V3 refernce the lousy-ISH performance. I am still getting around high 20's but I can tell a big difference from before.

 

Would anyone mind posting or sharing what visual settings worked best for them, or perhaps pm'ing the visualsettings configs etc.

 

 

I appreciate everyone's replies so far, thanks guys for all your input. 

 

Truly a great community here.
