DynDOLOD Beta for Skyrim Special Edition, Skyrim VR and Enderal SE 2.98

[LetholSSE]

I am sorry for multiple posts... It turned out that I couldn't solve it by removing smashedpatch.esp. I would really appreciate if I could get some help with this problem! 

[LetholSSE]

I have updated the mod list a little, you may find links to the new reports here:

 

bugreport.txt: Here!

 

DynDOLOD_SSE_log.txt: Here!

 

There is a couple of merged mods... To clarify, CLARALUX Merged contains these plugins:
 

  CLARALUX SSE - Dawn of Skyrim DC.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - ELFX DLC.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - Elysium Estate.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - Point the Way.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - Ordinator.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - Candy Shops.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - Nothern Marsh Bridges.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - USSEP.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - Bring Out Your Dead.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - Immersive College of Winterhold.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - Fortified Dawnguard.esp

  CLARALUX SSE - LAL.esp

 

This is the actual message I receive when the operation is aborted while loading JKs Skyrim.esp:

Hello!

 

I have a problem that hinders DynDOLOD from doing its magic.

 

Here is the content of DynDOLOD_SSE_log.txt: https://pastebin.com/v6kGaPEJ

and of bugreport.txt as requested: https://pastebin.com/ayMvZXc7

 

Thank you!

The error message from your log:

 

[00:00:07.954] There is a problem in DynDOLOD.esm with Tamriel "Skyrim" [WRLD:0000003C] using [16002DAE] in SMIM-SE-Merged-All.esp

[00:00:07.970] DynDOLOD.esm probably requires a different version of SMIM-SE-Merged-All.esp

[00:00:07.987] There is a problem in DynDOLOD.esm with Tamriel "Skyrim" [WRLD:0000003C] using [1602E12D] in SMIM-SE-Merged-All.esp

[00:00:08.004] DynDOLOD.esm probably requires a different version of SMIM-SE-Merged-All.esp

 

[00:00:08.082] Exception in unit prepare line 543: FormID [16002DAE] references a master which is not available in file [FD] DynDOLOD.esp

 

FAQ: Exception in unit xxx line xxx: FormID [xxx] references a master which is not available in file [xx] xxx.esp 

A: There is a plugin in the load order with errors. Check the load order for errors with xEdit.exe before generating LOD. Fix all errors. See video for help. 

 

Now look at the highlighted message: The worldrecord 0000003C links to non existing form IDs 16002DAE and 1602E12D. Since the error is recorded in DynDOLOD.esm it probably originates in the last ESM that overwrites the world record 0000003C.

 

Just open entire load order without any DynDOLOD plugins in xEdit and check the worldrecord 0000003C. Find the rows NAM2 - Water and NAM3 - LOD Water Type and check that each column links to a valid form.

Thank you Sheson! I will try to find and clean possible error in Xedit.  The link is not to the mentioned video but to this site. Can you please help me get it?

 

Thanks!

I fixed the link I messed up when copy and pasting from the DynDOLOD FAQ for the error message. I suggest to use additional info from the error message that I pointed out and check the world record directly first.

What object in that screenshot is supposed to be LOD? Open console and get its form ID and look it up in xEdit.

SnowDrift02 LOD appears when close up at least near BFB.

 

For a bit more information on the problem:

 

 

That snow drift should not be visible

Those screenshots do not show anything useful in regards to the supposed problem that LOD shows in loaded cells. All the screenshots show is a base record, some files in a folder and a screenshot of objects in loaded cells.

 

Open console, click object that is supposed to be LOD to get its reference form id and look it up in xEdit.

Hi Sheson! Any idea why these billboards won't work: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/75491/?tab=posts (please look at last reply to third post, "higher quality vesion of billboards"). Look at the distant aspen in the screenshot, they're vanilla, while the closer ones (3d model) are modded: 

 

Do I need to install lods as well as the billboards? Thought that when running DynDOLOD the billboards would be enough.

The "green aspen" billboards from the google drive link should work just fine as they seem have the appropriate files names. The billboards are LOD resources that are used when generating tree LOD. Make sure the billboards dds/txt files are not overwritten when generating tree LOD. Once LOD generation is finished install the generated tree LOD as usual.

[godescalcus]

And yet, they don't work. The billboards aren't being overwritten. I checked that no mod is changing the actual aspen model, but none is. Can't think of anything else... Could I have messed up while setting up for 3d trees?

If you are generating 3D tree LOD, the billboards are used for the higher LOD levels and fall back only in case a 3D LOD models is not found. Billboards are LOD resources for "2D" tree LOD only.

 

It seems the mod is just replacing the full textures used by the branches. You will need to create 3D LOD models with the green tree branches textures. The texture needs to be converted to a LOD texture with adjusted alpha channel. You will find more info in DynDOLOD\Docs\trees.ultra\tools\DynDOLOD_CreateStaticTree.html

Hello any idea why i am getting this error "DynDOLOD requires PapyrusUtil64 3.3 or newer" when i am using the 3.5 utility version?  Also a few .json errors after it. Never had this problem, is it because of Skyrim update?

Edited September 15, 2018 by LucidAPs

Nevermind i had the outdated simply knock overwriting the new utility files.
