ESO Graphics Extender

2.0.1

Finally the most massive ESO graphical overhaul has been released. With the newly released shader pack for Reshade 3.0.7 there are some really neat effects you can replicate in ESO. After weeks of tweaking and consulting with shader programmers I’ve finally finished this master piece. This is more than just a Reshade preset, it also contains slightly modified shaders for ESO and increases the view distance drastically, so there is no longer a blue tinted fog everywhere.   This preset is based off Ultra Real Lighting and Colors, adjustments were made mathematically with a bit of eyeballing on the side. There are several differences between this overhaul and any other preset. The aim of this project was to replicate visual enhancement mods seen in Skyrim/Oblivion/Morrowind with ENBs and such. SweetFX previously did not have the tools to do the things we can achieve now in ESO.

How to manually install? (If you use the Full Version read the READ ME for explanation)
1) Download the latest version of Reshade (https://reshade.me/) then click select game
2) Navigate to the location:  C:\Program Files (x86)\Zenimax Online\The Elder Scrolls Online\game\client  or wherever your ESO64.exe is located
3) Check Direct3D 10+ then allow Reshade to automatically download shaders.
4) Only leave checked the following shaders (or it will take longer to load Reshade up)

  • AmbientLight (removed temporarily)
  • Bloom
  • Clarity
  • Colourfulness
  • Curves
  • DepthHaze (removed as of 1.4b)
  • HDR
  • LiftGammaGain
  • LightDoF
  • LumaSharpen
  • MagicBloom
  • Monochrome
  • qUINT_lightroom (added in 2. 0)

5) Overwrite the «dxgi.dll» file with the one in the Preset. This prevents reshade from disabling depth buffer access which is needed for proper DoF.

6) Download and execute Hook64 (https://www.gamemodi.net/) You will need to use this to launch the game, This will increase draw distance and remove excess fog.

7) Press Right Shift + F2 to open up Reshade GUI. Follow the tutorial, at the top it lets you choose a local preset. If you download the Preset alone then you have to place it in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Zenimax Online\The Elder Scrolls Online\game\client

*Note: If reshade disables the preset when the GUI disappears then click Settings and do the following
Input Processing:  Block input when cursor is on overlay
Under User Interface check Show Clock or Show FPS (This will keep the GUI active to avoid the bug. Crosire is aware of this issue)

8) In Reshade Gui (RShift + F2) go to Settings then under Usage Mode, select performance mode.
[I’ve also provided my own Reshade config files, and Hook64 for anyone who doesn’t want to do everything manual. All you have to do is extract the files to your Game client folder then run the Hook64 and the preset should be auto-selected]
____________________________________________________

Video Tutorial (as requested)

____________________________________________________
-Known Bugs-

1) Reshade doesn’t render unless GUI is active.
Solution: Shift+F2 then click Settings, then change Input Processing to «Block input when cursor is on overlay». Now under user interface check show Time/FPS. 

2) Crash on Startup
Solution: Rename dxgi.dll to d3d11.dll

3) No shaders showing up in reshade menu
Solution: Check d3d11.ini and dxgi.ini if the paths are set correctly for you game and shader folder.

4) DoF doesn’t work (or everything is caught in DoF?)
Solution: Full screen breaks DOF, change to Windowed Fullscreen.

The Elder Scrolls Online is Getting Another Graphical Upgrade

By
Parth Bagaria

ZeniMax Online Studios announces new graphical upgrades for The Elder Scrolls Online will improve the visuals as well as the performance.

ZeniMax Online Studios has announced new graphical enhancements for The Elder Scrolls Online that will improve the image quality, as well as performance, on PC and next-generation consoles. This news comes shortly after the game’s highly anticipated release on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, that was already a big upgrade over the previous generation version.

While The Elder Scrolls Online stumbled at launch, it has evolved into an extremely popular MMORPG, and the sheer amount of content on offer is hard to argue against. A new expansion releases every summer, and regular DLC content keeps the players engaged throughout the year. The latest expansion, Elder Scrolls Online: Blackwood, was well received, despite having a weak ending.

RELATED: Bethesda Details QuakeCon 2021 Schedule

On a post on the official website of The Elder Scrolls Online, Lead Graphics Engineer, Alex Tardif mentions all of the graphical improvements that will be added in Update 31. With the aim of hitting a solid 60fps on next-generation consoles, the resolution was set to 1440p on PS5 and Xbox Series X, and 1080p on Xbox Series S. As these consoles are capable of running the game at higher resolutions, Dynamic Resolution Scaling will now be added. Xbox Series X and PS5 will scale between 1080p and 2160p, while Series S will scale between 1080p and 1440p. The post goes on to explain that this new range allows for more stable framerate in high-intensity activities such as large PVP battles.

There is also good news for those who have expressed frustrations with the current implementation of HDR in The Elder Scrolls Online. With the release of Update 31, a new hue-preserving HDR mode will be added to the game. Players that prefer the current use of HDR can toggle between the two modes. Finally, Update 31 will also be bringing render multithreading to PC as an opt-in beta setting. This feature should help in improving the frame rate for PCs with a relatively weaker CPU. Update 31 is currently scheduled to arrive on August 23 for PC/Stadia and August 31 for consoles.

The Elder Scrolls Online recently passed 18 million players, a massive achievement considering its initial reception. It continues to build upon its strength by adding new content at a steady pace. The use of DSR will result in a higher upper limit for the resolution, while also allowing for more stable frame rate during large battles. The new HDR mode and multithreaded rendering are also welcome additions.

It is fair to suggest that there might be more untapped power left in the new consoles, that can further allow ZeniMax Online Studios to propel the visuals to new heights. With Bethesda confirming that The Elder Scrolls 6 will launch after the release of Starfield, now is probably a great time for fans of the series to jump into ESO.

The Elder Scrolls Online is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.

Best mods for Elder Scrolls Online

Mods

06/29/2019

The Elder Scrolls Online is Bethesda’s first real and proper step into the world of MMO, and, fortunately, you can install mods on the game. The title is great on its own, but if you’re looking for ESO mods, we’ve rounded up the best ones in this article!

There are ESO mods for the interface, several quest markers, inventory, combat, display and more. Without further ado, let’s get started.

The game has enough quests, storylines, guilds, factions, and everything else you would expect from an Elder Scrolls title.

Foundry Tactical Combat

Foundry Tactical Combat overhauls combat system UI elements to offer more information, including damage amounts, active buff tracking, and more. This is one of the main mods for those players who want to get more information about the course of battles with enemies.

Download

Wykkyds Framework

One of the best UI mods for beginners that you should download before you even start playing. A large pack of handy tools, from inventory tracking, experience points to the next level indicator, UI tweaks and more. A must have mod for anyone who wants to make their game more customizable.

Download

Jumper

A simple mod that adds the ability to bind keys, and now, when pressed, the player can freely teleport to the nearest wayshrine. A small and handy mod if you like to explore the game world.

Download

Ingredients

Ingredients easily and clearly identifies items in the vendor’s inventory that are part of a known recipe. Great crafting mod that can save time.

Download

XPview

Adds a small window to the game that calculates the number of experience points per hour. Useful for keeping track of how long it takes on average to reach a new level.

Download

insMobs2Level

This mod keeps track of how much XP you earn and how much you still need to level up in chat so you always know how much XP you’ve earned.

Download

Sky Shards

Sky Shards are very important in The Elder Scrolls Online, and collecting as many of them as possible is very important in order to make the character as strong and versatile as possible. This mod conveniently marks these fragments on the map, so you will not have problems with the search.

Download

Lore Books

Lore Books marks knowledge books on the map so you won’t have trouble finding them. If you want to learn as much as possible about Tamriel and its many factions, this mod is what you need.

Download

MiniMap

A great mod that allows you to customize the minimap in various cool and stylish ways. Try different shapes, looks, and more to add the minimap that works best to your game.

Download

Multi-Quest Tracker

By default, ESO only allows you to track one quest at a time. This simple modification changes that and allows you to track multiple quests at the same time. A useful mod, especially when doing a few small jobs.

Download

Stop Right There!

This little improvement tells you exactly when to stop in front of guards so they don’t have to tell the player. A very handy mod that can keep your character out of trouble with the law and also allows you to focus on picking the lock.

Download

Potion Maker

A very useful mod for creating potions. It allows you to craft potions of all sorts, keep track of the ingredients you need, and more. Alchemist’s best friend! There are various similar mods for other activities as well, if you’re more into blacksmithing, for example.

Download

Bag Space Indicator

A small mod that creates a small window that will show how much space is left in bags and inventory, as well as the amount of gold. A very nice inventory mod that can save you some time and hassle when the bags start to fill up.

Download

Dustman

Gets rid of any trash in your inventory. It will destroy everything that has no value and automatically sell everything that is not worth it. Great mod!

Download

Reshade 3.0

Nice graphics mod that should give depth to shadows and dark areas and remove the pronounced blue tint that Elder Scrolls Online has by default. The mod is easy to install and pretty good if configured correctly. The only graphical mod really needed to make The Elder Scrolls Online look crisper and brighter.

Download
