    Whatever mod is modifying Critters\CritterMarkerSmall.nif is likely the cause.

    Shadow settings in the BethINI presets were designed to work together to limit the issue. Altering any of them from the presets may change the outcome. Not sure why Soft Shadows isn't doing anything for you. It basically adjusts the poisson filter for shadows. I have not tried Shadow Boost yet.

    This is normal. SSE splits the shadow map, and you are seeing where the split happens. You can adjust the Detailed Draw Distance, but in all reality, you are trading one issue for the next. One value looks good in one place, but terrible in the next. The values in the preset dropdown are the best compromises I could find for most scenes, but still, there are some scenes, like here, where the issues will be visible. I would recommend that you install the Soft Shadows mod, which should help alleviate this vanilla game issue.

    Discussion topic: Enhanced Vanilla Rocks by DoubleYou Wiki Link Retextures rocks in a vanilla-friendly manner, upgrading details and hiding the low poly jaggies of the original models using normal mapping techniques. The important rock textures now have 4k diffuse textures, so you no longer have to cringe when you get up close to them. Fallout 4 HD Overhaul provides our current rock textures. The normal maps it provides don't look like they match the diffuse, and the fake moss it paints on the small boulders doesn't look very good because of the small texel density of the texture on the UVs. I need to update my compare against it, but the compares against vanilla are on the mod page.

    It appears it now is compatible with PRP. Remarking for testing.

    Marked as Accepted for current dev guide. I have verified using Sniff that this is the only model pointing to this material file. Therefore, it is definitely a good fix.

    You forgot a colon: -sse -o:"C:\xLODGen\xLODGen_Output"

    Grass ini settings in my videos are exactly as I instruct within Grass Cache Fixes description and as described in the Step guide and the Step Grass LOD Guide. There is also this guide with some very good info: https://github.com/The-Animonculory/Modding-Resources/blob/main/Grass Lods.md#fixing-grass-data-w-grass-cache-fixes

    fGrassMinStartFadeDistance should be 0. Ensure that Grass Fade-In is disabled in BethINI Visuals tab. This is also covered in the Step guide. You can find multiple videos of grass lod in action on my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@doubleyouc/videos

    Optimal settings are in the Step guide.
  12. DoubleYou
    Yeah. Not sure if it'd help, but it could.

    1. This is a guess, but I think you forgot to disable the Cathedral Landscapes xLODGen file. 2. Grass Cache Fixes provides blank grass cache files, so the fact that you have no grass doing what you have done should have been expected. Grass cache is provide in the Step Patch - Conflict Resolution.bsa file. 3. Never heard of this issue.

    The reason why is because the grass is too tall, so more likely to run into the character. There is that one mod that adds collision around the player character that, in combination with enb grass collision, may resolve this for you. I can't remember the name of it atm, but I do believe it was recently added to testing.

    Whatever is too close to the camera will clip into player and be culled.
  16. DoubleYou
    When your character gets close to an object, the game culls/clips anything within the fNearDistance. You'll notice if you get up too close to many objects, they will be culled/clipped. This is expected behavior.
  17. DoubleYou
    Changing it causes clipping close to the player, like you're seeing, so it is not a viable fix for z-fighting.
  18. DoubleYou
    Yes, we're having an issue atm.
  19. DoubleYou
    Yes, it appears that the wiki is down at the moment. Just play some games until we resolve.
  20. DoubleYou
    You can make custom edits in the Custom tab. It is also fine to use the MO2 ini editor.
  21. DoubleYou
    You cannot use compression on sound/music files in BSA archives. Consider using BSArch Pro to make an archive where you can have some files compressed and sound files uncompressed in the same archive. Alternately, just don't use compression.
  22. DoubleYou
    Probably fNearDistance if you haven't corrected that yet.
  23. DoubleYou
    You are noticing that billboards are not a perfect replication of full trees and grass. This is not much you can do beyond making perfect 3d LODs for the trees, and tweaking your grass color/brightness to match more correctly.
  24. DoubleYou
    I did a check over the files, and we should be able to package this to replace the base game voice ba2 files so as to not waste any ba2 slots, and also fix the fact that the sounds are in compressed archives. Well, scratch that. That just causes CTD

    Discussion topic: Northern Foothills Rocks Fix by ossumpossum Wiki Link The game was initially designed to use two different exterior rock textures: a darker variant in the Northern Foothills region, and the brighter gray variant everywhere else. However, I believe that Bethesda had issues setting up the LODs to correctly match the darker variants (they royally screwed up their material swaps and lod meshes for this), so they reverted the texture paths to the brighter gray variant, which is what you then see everywhere. This mod restores the materials to point to the Northern Foothills rock textures. One obvious result is that since no one has actually seen these textures in game due to this issue, none of the current retextures for this rock texture (yes, people did faithfully retexture it despite never seeing it in game), they don't blend very well with the landscape. I'm currently working on a rock texture mod (which is pretty much done) that will use this fix to restore the darker variant while also blending in very well with the landscape.
