Reduce the level of black crush: Open Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\Skyrim.ini and add fGlobalContrastBoost=-0.2 to the Display section. Serato's website, of all places, has a visual guide on how to do this (ignore the opening Intel section).

Note: Once again, the game's physics engine doesn't properly support framerates above 60fps, so be sure to either change your refresh rate to 60Hz or use RTSS to impose as 60fps cap.įix poor performance/start-up issues on laptops: Use the AMD/Nvidia control panel to force a preference for your system's dedicated GPU.

Skip the intro video: Open Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\Skyrim.ini and add SIntroSequence=1 to the General section. Just be sure to cap the framerate to 60fps as the physics engine doesn't properly support higher framerates.įix wonky physics: As above, ensure the game is capped to 60fps as the physics engine doesn't properly support higher framerates.Įnable basic Steam Controller support: Untick "Controller" in the in-game settings menu.

Stop the game from crashing after 15 minutes on touch-capable systems running Windows 10: Open the task manager, switch to the Services tab and disable TabletInputService.

The greater window the engine has to render a given frame, if you're imposing a lower framerate than the game can otherwise provide, may also help in alleviating stuttering related to data streaming. Note: Useful if you your system can't maintain, say, 60fps and you're sensitive to the wild fluctuations, or you're experiencing uneven frametimes.

Alternatively, those with an Nvidia GPU have the option of Nvidia Inspector, which can also be used to impose a framerate cap, either in a similar manner to RTSS or by way of forcing a different vsync interval (click the small tool icon to open the game profile section).

Intel: Depends on your processor download the driver update utilityĬap the framerate/potentially improve frametimes: Download RivaTuner Statistics Server, input your desired framerate limit in the "Framerate limit" box, and hit enter (the program comes bundled with MSI Afterburner and earlier versions of EVGA PrecisionX).
