Hello! I have been using DynDOLOD for a long time and everything has always been fine in the Skyrim SE game...
But when I started using 2.98, problems started.

This thread is for Skyrim/Enderal but it seems you you are using Skyrim Special Edition?

Make sure the DynDOLOD DLL scripts overwrite DynDOLOD Resources.

Does this happen with a new game?

I apologize for not immediately answering your recommendations and questions. I have generated DynDOLOD many times for a new game, and for pure preservation, and with a library, and with just papyrus - there are always errors in  "DynDOLOD_Tamriel.json":

"Error: Parse error on line 2064:
...28017", "c28017"],    },    "intList": {        "
----------------------^
Expecting 'STRING', got '}' "

"Error: Parse error on line 1999:
...25457", "c25457"],    },    "intList": {        "
----------------------^
Expecting 'STRING', got '}' "

etc.

Upload the complete json file that you believe has problems.

Upload the entire DynDOLOD log of the generation that you believe created the problematic json files.

Hello! I apologize for my "English" - I write through an automatic translator.

Here are three files: DynDOLOD_Tamriel.json, LODGen_SSE_Tamriel_log.txt, DynDOLOD_SSE_log.txt

The list has to be incomplete for it to have trailing comma.

Is there a bugreport.txt in the same folder as the DynDOLOD.exe? If so upload that, please.

If there is no bugreport.txt, upload DynDOLOD_Output\skse\plugins\DynDOLOD_Data\DynDOLOD_Tamriel.txt

[Velezarius2]

There is no bug report.

Thanks. Unfortunately this didn't reveal anything new what the problem could be.

Please install the latest DynDOLOD 3 Alpha and check if the json is OK.

[Velezarius2]

Thank you very much! Your advice to upgrade to DynDOLOD-3 helped me - everything worked as it should!

Hello. I'm trying to generate Tree LOD for Fabled Forests. I have gone through this process multiple time in the past for SFO without problems.  I ran LODGen to generate terrain successfully. I then ran texgen in an attempt to create billboards, but no billboards were created for trees. If I remember correctly, there was at one point an option in LODGen to create Tree LOD as objects, but I did not see it in the current tool. Is that option gone? I'm currently using some LOD someone posted on the nexus, but it's too bright and looks very artificial, especially the birch trees. Is there still a way to generate tree LOD without billboards? I would like to do that if possible. Otherwise, what would be the reason no billboards are generated?

This is the DynDOLOD 2.x thread. Its TexGen version does not generate billboards. Billboards are required to generate tree LOD. They are also required for ultra tree LOD, e.g. LOD for trees done in object LOD.

Use DynDOLOD 3 Alpha. Its TexGen version generates billboards for the current load order.
