DynDOLOD DLL beta for Skyrim, Skyrim Special Edition and Skyrim VR

So far all versions of DynDOLOD use the SKSE plugin PapyrusUtil for the optional dynamic LOD in the game. Starting with version 2.45 there is now the alternative DynDOLOD DLL available.

The current DLL version is 2.45. It works with dynamic LOD generated by DynDOLOD Standalone 2.45 and newer.

Read the ..DynDOLOD\Docs\DynDOLOD_DLL.html included in DynDOLOD Standalone for an explanation about DynDOLOD DLL, installation instructions (overwrite papyrus scripts of DynDOLOD Resources) and how it works.

If there are problems with it, check DynDOLOD_DLL.html and the DynDOLOD FAQ first before posting.

If a DynDOLOD.DLL version is required for a game version that is not listed below, request it in this thread. First, search this thread if it has been requested already, though. The future will tell how long it takes to release updates.

Typically a new DynDOLOD.DLL is required for each new game version, but not each new SKSE version. For example a DynDOLOD.DLL compiled with SKSE64 2.0.9 also works with SKSE64 2.0.10 for the same game version.

Ok, first post to STEP here for me. I've been using DynDOLOD for a bit now, have RTFM several times over during this time, have never had any issues or troubles I couldn't figure out myself thanks to all the documentation. Awesome job thank you very much for that. Thank you for this entire awesome mod you've created here really. I'm just wondering what DynDOLOD DLL is taking the place of and considering the topic is DynDOLOD DLL, I figure this is a good place to start. I gather that it eliminates the dependency of the .json files / PapyrusUtil in the DynDOLOD output, but is there a clear advantage or benefit to switching to the DLL? Are you trying to provide better performance in game or is it simply a different way to store data that DynDOLOD needs? To put it simply, is one better than the other?

It is a replacement for PapyrusUtil specifically for what DynDOLOD needs in game. No more no less. The main reason was the lack of PapyrusUtilVR and be independent in case of game updates.

 

Starting with version 2.45 there is now the alternative DynDOLOD DLL available for testing.

 

You will have to test to find out if one or the other works better for your load order. Realistically performance should be the same, but the scripting works a bit differently. I really can't say if one is significantly better than the other.

So would using dyndolod.dll instead of papyrusutil reduce the load on papyrus? In oldrim there was a lot of speculation (misinformation?) on how the load on papyrus caused stability issues.

As a best practise recommendation, would it be to always use dyndolod.dll if that is an option as compared to the default papyrus utils? Or does it have a negligible effect load/stability wise for SSE so it just comes down to user preference?

Hello,

 

I got a problem with the mega link of the DynDOLOD.DLL for Skyrim Special Edition 1.5.73

 

It says " temporary error" and i can't download it, but he other DLL link works...

 

Is it possible to have another link, or is it really just a temporary problem ? (I've been trying for many hours to get it today)

 

Thanks for your work !

I reuploaded it so it has a new URL that works.

      Dynamic Distant Objects LOD - DynDOLOD for Skyrim and Enderal 2.95
      By sheson
      DynDOLOD for Skyrim and Enderal 2.3x - 2.8x minor version update post | Major version update Post | Skyrim Special Edition / Skyrim VR / Enderal SE
      Important
      This update includes updated papyrus scripts in DynDOLOD Resources 2.45 that require a DynDOLOD.esp generated by DynDOLOD Standalone 2.45 or higher. Do not mix with older versions.
      If an existing save is updated, follow the "clean save" cycle:
      First deactivate DynDOLOD from MCM, wait for deactivation message, go into interior, check MCM DynDOLOD is still deactivated, save, exit game.
      Remove old DynDOLOD.esp, remove old meshes/skse/textures and uninstall old DynDOLOD Resources, which includes the old papyrus scripts
      Start game, load last save, wait a bit, save again.
      Install new DynDOLOD Resources 2.45 which includes the new papyrus scripts.
      Generate LOD. Install the output with the new DynDOLOD.esp and the new generated LOD. Enable the new DynDOLOD.esp.
      Start game, load the last save, go outside. DynDOLOD should initialize by itself, else activate from MCM.
      Follow the same procedure for Skyrim SE even though there are no papyrus scripts.
      What's New?
      Starting with DynDOLOD 2.70 the Skyrim TVDT Occlusion data of cell records can be update/generated. The data is used to disable distant occluded object and terrain LOD meshes behind other terrain LOD meshes for better performance. See included Docs\DynDOLOD_Manual.html "TVDT - Occlusion Data" section. Check the dedicated Skyrim TVDT - Occlusion Data thread for more information, questions and feedback.
      Starting with DynDOLOD 2.55 the Steam version of Enderal is supported. Use -enderal command line argument. See included Docs\DynDOLOD_Manual.html "Enderal" section in "Custom Settings for Specific Mods"
      Starting with DynDOLOD 2.45 there is an alternative DynDOLOD DLL that can be used instead of PapyrusUtil for the optional dynamic LOD.
      Starting with DynDOLOD Resources 2.44 for Skyrim the Whiterun Exterior, Solitude Exterior and the Desync Bird of Prey plugins have been replaced with *.patch files. The data that used to be in the plugins is now added to DynDOLOD.esp when LOD is is generated in case the *.patch files have been installed.
      Fixed bug with generating object LOD for Bruma
      Always output data files as UTF8 without BOM
      Better performing papyrus scripts thanks to pointers from Borgut1337.
      Better support for reading any text/ini file from BSA.
      Fixed a bug with supporting mods that add new cells beyond borders, reported by Kelmych.
      Hopefully fixed all of the out of memory errors when creating texture atlas (mainly happened for SSE).
      DynDOLOD.exe now tries to ignore and report wild edits that add floating objects above Bleakwind Basin at cell 0, 0 of Tamriel. I would be interested in feedback, especially when it got it right with the mods name, so i can verify the parameters of the wild edits to refine the detection.
      DynDOLOD.exe will now warn if it encounters deleted references. It helps me to remember to clean mods.
      Lots of code maintenance in xEdit carried over, thanks to Zilav being productive and lots of updates in LODGen as well for stuff happening in the background. See changelog below.
      There is no need to update LOD generated by earlier versions just because the tools have been updated. Consider updating or generating LOD from scratch in case you notice missing LOD for the mods listed below or if a problem that was affecting you was fixed.
      Skyrim SE users might enjoy this video by WazaLang - even if you know how to generate 3D LODs already, just for views or the mixing of different tree mods for great results. The instructions work all the same with DynDOLOD standalone 2.30 or higher and DynDOLOD Resource SE 2.30 or higher.
      Bruma, see this post and this thread
      If you want to generate (tree) LOD for the new worldspace, you will need to edit ..DynDOLOD\Edit Scripts\DynDOLOD\DynDOLOD_[GAMEMODE]_worldspace_ignore.txt and remove/change the line "BSHeartland (Tamriel) - bsheartland.esm". Just adding an X in front would be enough for it to show in the world selection drop down again.
