# What?

The aim of this expansion is to improve the look of [I&A](https://next.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/collections/xxsqm4) while not having a massive download size.

This is mostly for people who have the hardware that are beyond the basic requirements of just the I&A collection itself and want to make it look better while not putting any significant effort into it.

---

# How?

The most significant change that you will notice are the new textures that look a lot better than the vanilla textures, yet stay true to the original art style of Skyrim.

Lighting has also been improved with the addition of Lux which should make the game more atmospheric and at times darker because *immersion*. You can't light whole caves with just a couple of candles, can you?

Also, clouds, fire, grass, trees and clutter have all been improved.

---

# Before Installing

---

---

# Installation Guide

---

1. Download and install the collection.
2. Ignore missing masters error if you dont own the purchasable AE upgrade
3. Ignore the error which says that I&A is missing dependencies. You can get rid of the error by going into the collection tab, clicking view on I&A, filter by disabled and select ignore on the disabled mods.
---

# ENB

---

ENB is highly recommended and should be used in tandem with this collection to get the best experience, but ENB can be quite a turn-off to people due to the significant FPS hit.

Below I will some list ENB preset recommendations which you can use along with this expansion. I've tried to include all kinds of different styles so I'm sure you'll find one that you like.

**INSTALL THE OPTIONAL MODS IF YOU'RE PLANNING TO USE ENB**

## Compatible Presets


*Install the presets following the installation instructions on the mod page and remember to download the Obsidian Weathers version as that is what the collection uses*
- *[Silent Horizons](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/21543)* (my personal favorite) *only follow steps 5-8*
- *[iiENB](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/30716)*
- *[Re-Engaged](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/1089)*
- *[Culminated](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/53167)*

- *[Intrigued](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/18149)*

# Troubleshooting

---

This collection was only made with the base I&A collection in mind so you will probably get conflicts in Vortex if you've added other mods on top of the collection.

- Infinite loading screen: Remove the Veydosebrom Regions - A Skyrim Grass Overhaul mod along with it's archive and make the expansion redownload it by clicking resume on it in the collections tab.
- Rainbow colored patterns when map open: Reinstall the mod named Ethereal Clouds

**CURRENTLY ON HIATUS** I will personally provide support when possible in the [I&A Discord server](https://discord.gg/t8X3RMKMUb). I'm the guy named Maki, feel free to ping me :). Do remember to use the altered collection support channel.
