    What version of EVT are you using? SLE or SSE? If generating LOD for SSE, be certain to use latest SSE version that has been updated for use with DynDOLOD 3, and Billboards Generator is not needed with this mod (and is obviated by TexGen 3), so any output created from that is not needed. I can't speak to SLE version. EDIT: I see you are using SLE version, so you can disregard above statement/advice.

    It's always possible that OS updates will throw a wrench into things. I get them and haven't seen this issue, so it could be UAC if install path is in "Program Files", etc., or that I have disabled Windows Security and Defender (I use ESET) ... not at home now to verify, and I forget. As you know, some people say they do things but they don't actually do them correctly or jump to conclusions ... or there is some other related issue with their setup. I find this post to be the best procedure to share: ... I may just add this to our guides as well.

    That should work fine, but @Majorman will need to confirm to be certain. You should just install and enable it and sort with LOOT to test. You can simply disable it in MO if there are problems. EDIT: to be safe, use it only for testing and disable afterward (until Majorman confirms). Always sort your mods whenever plugins are added/removed/enabled/disabled

    Which is exactly what people will learn when searching the forums for "cannot find the path specified" It's as easy as falling off a log

    Or exclude the files as described in "best answer" on the two answered posts i linked. Windows will always update Defender and Windows Security, so excluding the relevant files should be simpler and less maintenance.

    When it fails to load, are you starting new or loading a save? These issues can always come from a save game that depends on different plugins or load order. Always test by launching a new game to be sure.

    This is what has been mentioned. Just above, sheson linked the fix someone else posted: ... I just marked it as best answer on that topic ... and on this one:

    All, this is like THE most common error people are reporting. It's most likely related to Win OS UAC or AV. You will need to install the tools in a location that is not under UAC control and possibly set an exception for TexGenx64.exe (and possibly DynDOLODx64.exe) in your AV. See System Setup Guide and search the DynDOLOD topic for "system cannot find the path specified" This issue has been reported at least 50x as have the resolutions.

    You can adjust the grass lighting in TexGen for overall brightness of grass billboards specifically. I have found that setting ambient from default 160 to 145 works well with ENB (depends on ENB settings). Even better is to ALSO adjust the grass lighting by channel for upper/lower in DynDOLOD_SSE.ini. Increase red and decrease blue for upper, and subtract at least 0.010 from all of them. For lower, decrease red a bit and also subtract about 0.010 from all three. Then regen. You will find that this looks much better. Weather can still potentially cause minor issues with matching, but playing with these settings resolves it almost completely.

    If I'm not mistaken, your rule additions have conflicting priority with the default preset. I believe that you could use a spreadsheet to interleave your custom rules with the default, merging and renumbering in the wanted priority. You will need to remove default rules matching your new ones also, I'd say. Seems faster than inputting via the gui anyway. Oof ... I guess I didn't know that the preset INIs allowed 'append' of custom mesh rules via mod-included rules. Duh. I assumed that the line numbering like "LODGen 202" actually indicated priority ... but it seems like it's just a line counter that must update internally (without duplication) when eternal rules are appended/injected/interleaved.
  11. z929669
    Yeah, those are the records I found frequently (in addition to this one) in a random quick scan in xEdit with all 2.0.0 activated. Looking at Smooth Shores.
  12. z929669
    At least this mod is in active development. It would be great if it incorporated Smooth Shores edits and all were patched with MM, RWT, USSEP, etc.
  13. z929669
    Yeah, just looked at the mod more carefully. Lots of conflicts with Realistic Water Two as well as USSEP and many others. Too bad it's abandoned. Looks to be about 75% completed. Nothing in the icy shores is fixed though. Looks like it will never be updated unless someone takes it over.
  14. z929669
    Where to look for these 'holes'? All over or in certain areas? Does it edit river shorelines too? I hadn't noticed anything, but I also haven't been looking at shorelines. EDIT: Nevermind, I see that the author is tackling river shorelines, too. Looks like it's a WIP, so if it gets finished, that would be a plus. People usually quit these big projects before completing. This may be why nobody is patching for it ... yet. I can imagine that it will conflict with many mods though. LSaWF addresses a ton of issues that this mod will likely never touch, so it would seem that they should be patched. Curious why this is in Locations rather than Fixes

    No problem. Glad it helped

    MO2 should be installed outside of any location under UAC authority, so as long as the program is installed this way, you are good. Using an 'instanced' install (recommended), MO2 will create resources and profiles in %LOCALAPPDATA%/ModOrganizer, so that's OK. As instructed, set up a default vanilla Skyrim profile and ensure that you are able to launch the game via MO2 without any mods at all. Then install SKSE64 and see that you are able to use the SKSE launcher to launch via MO2 under the vanilla profile. Then you can try using your podded profile in the same way. If you crash, then you probably have something installed incorrectly or wrong version. This process will rule out any issues with game, MO2, and SKSE64 installation. From there, you will need to disable all mods in your intended MO2 profile and ensure that it starts up fine. Simply enable mods in groups from extenders and foundation mods on up, until you find what's causing the crash. You can also look for crash logs under .Net Script Framework. The following are the foundational mod types that you should have installed at lowest priority that you want to ensure are working properly (you don't need the xBox controller mod or the Weather Selector mod, but the rest are pretty standard:
  17. z929669
    First off, you shouldn't run MO2 as admin, so you can reset that. Second, you must launch Skyrim from the Steam launcher before trying to do so with MO2. This establishes all of the registry settings and initializes the game. Read through our System Setup Guide to verify that you have completed all necessary steps to properly setting up your environment.
  18. z929669
    Well I see an issue in the mod list. The ESP, BS_DLC_patch.esp, is loading before other ESMs. Not sure what the patch is, but you should be sorting with LOOT regardless. You are also running Wyrnstooth and Falskaar, so new lands can cause issues with compatibility with 200+ mods installed. Try disabling some of those big mods if sorting with LOOT doesn't resolve.
  19. z929669
    Sounds like an INI issue that @DoubleYou may be able to help with.

    At the bottom of all Mod page > File pages, there will be an "Archived" button that will reveal any archived (old) versions .. I think the caveat is that the Archive system had to be up before a mod was deleted. Looks like this one has a bunch of options, and 1.6.3 is at the bottom: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/67870/?tab=files&category=archived

    @Majorman is out until next week I think, but @Greg was helping him validate this build, so he may have some suggestions for you or the guide instructions.
  22. z929669
    LOL ... yeah, T4 can get scrappy when he feels his work is criticized. He does great work obviously and knows what he is doing, but he can have strong opinions and a volatile temperament. These are traits of several great mod authors in our experience over the years. I hadn't noticed the MM snow so much at night, so it may be related to your or our setup ... someone else around here may have some XP with this in MM though.
  23. z929669
    Thanks for finally communicating on these forums so that we know you are a real person We can create a SkyRem 'forum' under our unsupported guide forum and basically lock it with a single topic pointing users to your Discord. PM me if this is interesting. The benefit is that your users will be able to find that if they mistakenly search these forums for SkyRem support.
  24. z929669
    Yes, thanks for pointing that out. looks like the author ported it over to SE in March and did not make the same packaging mistake as the LE version that we had been linking previously. Corrected
  25. z929669
    It's very similar, so just be sure that if you are continuing with the 0.3.0b save game that you don't get rid of any mods having an ESL plugin ... I believe that you can switch to the ESP plugin in such situations and save again before removing the mod. Always save in an interior cell though. I really haven't played the game for real in years though. I tend to just do the modding and play for testing purposes. We will have the 2.0.0 guide in a couple of months though, so you may want to wait for that. That one will probably require a new game though, since it will have many new (and improved) features.
