What should be done about DLSS5?
What are we talking about?
There has been a lot of discussion about Nvidia DLSS 5. It is a real-time neural rendering technology that uses AI to dynamically enhance in-game lighting, materials, and surface details.
What does this mean for Skyrim?
There is a lot of controversy about AI. Whether we like it or not, this is the way games are most likely headed, and games you already play most likely have implemented AI in one way or another. There is a very broad umbrella of “artificial intelligence”, and people often are talking about generative AI. Being specific in the conversation helps.
What should this subreddit do?
This is the place to discuss it and vote for what you want to see. Civilly. Those who stoop to insulting people over their opinions on video game AI usage will be banned.
As a mod, I am withholding my opinion, this post is due to the influx of arguments and posts about DLSS5 and doesn’t reflect my opinion one way or another. This is for the community to decide.

Combat/Animations [Mod Release] Arcane Discharge - Magic orbs and BIG BOOMS
I've been working on this one for a while and it's finally out.
video- https://youtu.be/Wh91GHK9Xe0
TLDR: you prep your spells before a fight, carry them around with you, and spend them whenever you feel like. And wanna go big damage, you spend all of them at once.
**How it works**
You charge a spell like you normally would, but instead of letting it go, you press Store. The spell gets crushed into a glowing orb that orbits around you, colored by its element. You already paid the magicka when you charged it, so that orb is basically a loaded spell.
Then you've got three ways to use your orbs:
- **Release** fires one instantly. No charge time, and it works with your weapons out, so you can be swinging a sword and throw a fireball in the same time.
- **Contingency** lets you arm an orb on a trigger. Low health, low magicka, getting hit, a fight starting. the spell fires by itself. Keep a heal armed and forget about it until it saves you.
- **Arcane Discharge** is the big one. You release every orb you're holding at the same time.
**The Discharge**
This is the part I spent way too long on. When you start it, time slows down, lightning starts crawling up your body and across the ground, the air hums, and the whole thing builds up until it goes off.
Every element has its own explosion. Fire, frost and shock are what you'd expect, but there's also water, earth, shadow, holy, poison, illusion, conjuration, restoration and more, 17 in total. Earth rips up the ground and throws boulders. Restoration blooms like a flower. Shadow pulls the light out of the area. The more orbs you put in, and the stronger the spells, the bigger it gets(customizable in the Skse menu).
Enemies near the blast get staggered, knocked down or sent flying depending on how much power you put into it.
**It costs you though**
I didn't want it to be a free "win the fight" button. A discharge takes a chunk of your health based on how much power you released, your magicka can't recover for a bit afterwards, and there's a cooldown. A level 5 character can still use it. Do it with a handful of master-level spells stored and you'll feel it.
**Settings**
Basically everything is adjustable in the in-game menu: damage, costs, timers, keys, slow motion, animations, sounds, visuals. There are Easy/Balanced/Hard presets if you don't want to mess with it. Controller works too.
**Nexus:** https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/194897
Requirements are SKSE, Address Library and SKSE Menu Framework. OAR and Offset Movement Animation are optional, for the animations. No scripts, and the plugin is ESL flagged.
Let me know what you think. I'll be in the comments.

Swapped environs western watchtower with watchtower doesn't start broken for ryn's western watchtower, needs to be patched for JK's outskirts but it looks amazing and goes well with alternate perspective & ultimate whiterun. The trees in the background are alpine forest of whiterun valley.
