=== HOW TO INSTALL === (*) Just copy all the files into the game folder! i.e. 1. Locate the folder containing executable for Skyrim, SkyrimLauncher.exe Typical path looks like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\skyrim\ or this: C:\Program Files (x86)\The Elders Scroll\ 2. Copy all unzipped files into this folder (SkyrimLauncher.exe and these files should be together in the same folder): d3d9.dll dinput8.dll xinput1_3.dll d3d9_adapter.dll HiAlgoBoost.dll HiAlgoBoost.ini HiAlgo_EULA.txt HiAlgo_ReadMe.txt HiAlgo_TESVcache HiAlgo_TESVdata HiAlgo_Uninstall.bat D3DCompiler_43.dll
(optional)
3. If you weren't able to copy all the files without overwriting existing ones, you need to read instructions below - what to do when ENB, ScriptDragon or other mods using d3d9.dll or dinput8.dll are also used. 4. Done!
=== HOW TO TUNE UP === Go to My Documents\My Games\Skyrim, open SkyrimPrefs.ini. 1. Mouse acceleration in Skyrim MUST be turned off, for smoother play: Under section [Controls], make sure there is a line bMouseAcceleration=0 (edit existing line or add it if bMouseAcceleration is missing). 2. Done!
=== HOW TO TUNE UP FOR COMPATIBILITY WITH ENB MODS === 1. In enbseries.ini you may need to set ShadowQualityFix=false 2. Done! === HOW TO PLAY === 1. Start Skyrim as usual. You should see a popup message from HiAlgoBoost before the game starts. 2. Enjoy! === WHAT TO DO WHEN ENB MODS ARE ALSO USED === 1. Rename our d3d9.dll to, say, d3d9_hialgo.dll 2. Edit enbseries.ini, so that its [PROXY] section looks as following: [PROXY] EnableProxyLibrary=true InitProxyFunctions=true ProxyLibrary=d3d9_hialgo.dll 3. That's it! === WHAT TO DO WHEN non-ENB d3d9.dll-based MODS ARE ALSO USED === Note: this works no matter ENB mods are also present or not. Examples of non-ENB d3d9.dll-based mods: Standalone SMAA, FXAA Post Proces s Injector. 1. Rename other d3d9.dll to, say, d3d9_other.dll 2. Edit HiAlgoBoost.ini so that the part of [PROXY] section looks as following:
[PROXY] EnableProxy_d3d9 e SMAA,... ProxyLibrary_d3d9 3. That's it! === WHAT TO DO WHEN ScriptDragon MODS ARE ALSO USED === 1. Rename ScriptDragon's dinput8.dll to, say, dinput8_ScriptDragon.dll 2. Edit HiAlgoBoost.ini so that the part of [PROXY] section looks as following: [PROXY] EnableProxy_dinput8 = true on etc. ProxyLibrary_dinput8 = dinput8_ScriptDragon.dll 3. That's it! === HOW TO UNINSTALL === If you have NOT manually renamed some DLLs, just execute "HiAlgo_Uninstall.bat". Otherwise: 1. Remove unzipped files from the current folder. 2. Delete Documents\My Games\HiAlgo folder. 3. Restore DLL names and *.ini files if needed. === TROUBLESHOOTING === *) If you get an error saying something like "Cannot find D3DCompiler_43.dll", install the latest DirectX from here: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=35 *) If you get the message "The Program can't start because MSVCR100.dll is missi ng from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem." - then please run: <"SkyrimLauncher.exe directory">\VCRedist\vcredist_x86.exe *) Also, you probably should install the latest display driver: Start -> Run -> devmgmt.msc -> "Display adaptors" -> *your display adaptor* -> Right Click -> "Update Driver Software" -> Search Automatically...
