I assume you have Skyrim SE. My procedure was:
-
download Enderal SE from Steam (Skyrim itself does not need to be installed)
-
start enderal to have config files created, shut it down
-
download ENB files http://enbdev.com/mod_tesskyrimse_v0475.htm and unpack, go to WrapperVersion and copy the two dll files inside Enderal folder:
-
download of the STEAMIN ENB main file STEAMIN ENB for Enderal at Enderal Special Edition Nexus - Mods and community , unpack, paste the folder and two ini files into Enderal folder:
- download ENB helper ENB Helper SE at Skyrim Special Edition Nexus - Mods and Community - I used the second one
and put the file to
I also disabled letterbox (just change TRUE to FALSE in the enb ini file) and did the fourth step of the STEAMIN description (just added the textures and meshes files into their respective folders) and applied main menu and loading screen fixes (same thing, just copy paste)
As for your dying…I played on adept (default difficulty) and also died a fair amount, but that’s normal…this is more like a Gothic game, world does not scale and you can get your ass kicked, means you better be more careful, figure out a way, or run and come back later.
I am 110 hours in, my character now kicks ass for the most part, but that’s normal in RPGs and I don’t really mind. Still enjoying the quests and the world variety here…
