Rudy Cathedral is the most iconic SE ENB VR from the GOAT ENB author. It features rich, deep colors, incredible interior lighting from Zangdar's painstaking LUX tweaks, and maximizes Cathedral Weather's dramatic sunset and sunrise's. My VR patch adds wet specular effects in rain, as well as a few other tweaks. Everything just looks right when you use this weather/ENB.
Complementary Mods
What I Changed
ENBseries.ini
All weather files with rain in file name
Installation
Please be aware this is meant to be used with another sharpener like VR Performance Kit, DLAA or a Reshade like CAS, VR Vision or Glamur. Rudy's post pass shader is disabled as I feel these other sharpeners are better suited for VR.
Performance
Quest 2, i7-11700, and RTX 3070 runs this at 90FPS with Virtual Desktop Ultra (5382 x 2691) with Synchronous Spacewarp (SSW). VR Performance Kit FSR and DLAA. For lesser hardware consider reducing resolution from Virtual Desktop Ultra to High or Medium.

- Best sunrise and sundown
- World class colors, everything looks just right for Skyrim
- Zangdar's tweaks for Lux is best in class
- Fantasy ENB with amazing effects, yet still has enough realism
Complementary Mods
- Cathedral Weathers
- Rudy Cathedral Plugin (400MB) and Zangdar version of the preset
- My VR patch to add rain wetness, and a bit of brightness tweaks
- Volumetric Mists
- Morning Fog
- Picta Series - Improved Sky Meshes (get the Cathedral Patch)
- Dynamic Volumetric Lighting and Sun Shadows (Papyrus Version, Patch on Scenery ENB page)
What I Changed
ENBseries.ini
- Disabled Depth of Field, Ambient Occlusion, Sky Lighting, Lens Flare, Prepass and Postpass shaders
- Depth of Field doesn't make sense for VR
- Ambient Occlusion and Sky Lighting are poorly implemented in VR ENB, and in my opinion not worth the FPS hit
- Lens flare doesn't really look right in VR, it also has the dirty lens effect
- Prepass has most of the effects turned off in the original ENB, so I turned it off altogether
- Postpass has sharpening features, but VR has more suitable sharpeners so I disabled this as well
All weather files with rain in file name
- Increased specular strength and multiplier to simulate the missing wet effect from ENB for VR, inspired by Scenery ENB
- I am fairly aggressive with these settings to make the wet effect pop, may need to tone it down a bit for lighter rains
Installation
- Install Cathedral Weathers without unofficial patch
- Install Rudy ENB Cathedral Weathers Add-On (400MB)
- Install ENB Helper VR, Lux, Particle Patch For ENB, Papyrus version of EVLASS
- You don't need Water for ENB or ENB Light as they do not work in VR
- You don't need to do Rudy's suggested INI edits as most of the settings are not applicable for VR
- Download, extract and copy Rudy ENB CW Zangdar's Edit Lux Edition files into your Skyrim VR folder along with the two ENB VR DLL files if you don't already have them
- Copy the content of my VR mod into your Skyrim VR folder, overwriting Rudy's ENB files
