It is possible a recent xEdit update did "something".

 

When DynDOLOD finishes, close it with "Check Log", then mark and copy paste the log from the message window and upload please. Also upload bugreport.txt as well if it is exists.

There's no bugreport.txt unfortunately.

If there are no such texture you can ignore the messages about them. I will remove the useless message next update.

 

Missing models with the current Bruma is "normal" at the moment and should be OK. Archive management is is not available in MO2, so it is like always off.

I see. Problem solved then. Thanks a lot!

Please check if version 2.53 fixes the problem of not being able to save a valid DynDOLOD.esp for you.

I have a bugreport.txt from 2.52, if it helps. 

 

I ran into the "not being able to save or exit" problem if I used the advanced features (don't recall which ones) on high, but was able to complete the run with standard 'high' settings from the wizard. 

 

https://www.dropbox.com/s/dbvej1igcmpo0fs/bugreport.txt?dl=0 

 

Two things I noted in the bug report. 

 

1) exception message  : Can not copy [REFR:0506312F] (places TreePineForest02 [TREE:00018A02] in GRUP Cell Persistent Children of [CELL:00037EE6] (in SolitudeWorld "Solitude" [WRLD:00037EDF]) at -18,25) from Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch.esp into DynDOLOD.esp Assertion failure (C:\Delphi\projects\DynDOLOD\wbImplementation.pas, line 13521).

 

2) main thread ($560), inner exception level 1:

1) No entire log uploaded.

 

FAQ: DynDOLOD.exe: Exception in unit xxx line xxx: Can not copy xxxx from xxxx.esp into xxx.esp

 

A: Often caused by a broken bashed patch. Use a newer Wrye Bash version to create the patch or do not use the merge patches option. 

 

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

 

 

 

2) Of course not. That path exists on the machine that has the sources and was used to compile the exe

I wasn't able to save DynDOLOD.esp with 2.52 but I am with 2.53. Thanks for the quick update.

This is what the Nexus report says about the file https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/4c6fd0267809c891f3f4d1b0ce0f960ab4839127454136360d5e9e8d48d370ce/analysis/1543165173/

 

 

As I keep saying, there is not much I can do about the OS, AntiVirus etc. of users blocking downloading or denying access to something.

Hi! Unfortunately I got an issue when running dyndolod 2.53 .

Basically is the exact same situation as this https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/comments/6l4e3b/3d_tree_lod_issue/

In short RAT 3d lod has no branches unless i tfc and go really close to them.Full model is rendered just fine.

I have the Tamriel atlas created,although i cant see it cause it wont open with paint or ddsviewer etc ..Older versions used to work and opened up but new textures dont at all.

Also i opened the mentionted in reddit .bto on nifskope and it showed that the textures of the branches are mapped  although again it didnt show the image of the atlas (it was grey).

Furthermore i still have an output of 2.47 that works just fine .

I changed nothing other than migrating my whole mod setup to an ssd between the older version 2.47 and 2.53.Also i runned the 2.53 on the old drive where i kept the old installation and i still got the same bug.

 

Is there still a 2.47 version available for me to test it? I managed to lose it... If i could create dyndolod with that version and not have the bug then i would know for sure that there isnt something on my end that changed (e.g. ssd which has some fancy stuff like rapid mode or w/e.. i dont know  im clueless here :P )

If you read the update post / change log as suggest you should know that starting with 2.48 the textures are now using the BC7 compression. I suppose you might need to update some programs/plugin in order to open them. With the right programs (the texconv command line utility included in DynDOLOD for example) you can also convert existing textures.

 

You can switch back told former BC1/BC3 compressions by opening ..DynDOLOD\Edit Scripts\DynDOLOD\DynDOLOD_SSE.ini and setting

StaticLODDiffuseFormat=200
StaticLODNormalFormat=200
TreeLODDiffuseFormat=202
TreeLODNormalFormat=200

That should not affect the alpha of LOD textures including the ones use by 3D LOD one way or the other. But this way you would be able to check the textures without needing to update your tools.

 

Which RAT mod and which 3D LOD trees are you using? I seem to have no issues with Realistic Aspen Trees SE and the 3D LOD meshes and ..textures\lod\rat\*.dds included in DynDOLOD Resources SE 2.45.

 

This might be problem of the resource textures used for the trees. LOD textures being transparent usually means they were not adjusted for the hard coded alpha threshold of 128.

So the first step would to check the log to identify the LOD models NIFs used for these trees and the textures they are referencing.

The 3D tree LOD report of interest should start be from the line having TreeAspen01 [TREE:0006A9E6] meshes\landscape\trees\treeaspen01.nif and following

 

Also check the log also check for errors or warnings.

Thanks for the update Sheson, and yeah the DynDOLOD generation seems to work fine now.  

 

When would you plan on exiting the beta phase though, and moving all development to a Nexus page?
