zelazko Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/27622 I am not sure if this mod will support DynDoLOD. Lanterns of Skyrim has a patch for DynDOLoD but the patch is just a script file while Medieval Lanterns of Skyrim mod does not have any scripts.

0 sheson Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Looking at the screenshots the mod, someone would probably need to create LOD models for the candles if dynamic LOD for the candle flames is desired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 zelazko Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 How difficult is it to create those LOD models for candles? Can a layman do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 sheson Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 To create a LOD object with the flames only, copy the full model to a new filename with *_dyndolod_lod.nifUse NifSkope to remove everything but the BSX and BSValueNode with "AddOneNode49" in their names. Change the BSX flag so that only bit 4 is checked. See Meshes\DynDOLOD\lod\clutter\impchandelliercandle01_dyndolod_lod.nif in DynDOLOD Resources as example. It is the candle flames LOD for meshes\clutter\imperial\impchandelliercandle01.nif Then add a rule to DynDOLOD\Edit Scripts\DynDOLOD\rules\DynDOLOD_SSE_candles_[low|medium|high].iniLODGenXX=mlos_lantern,,,,Far LOD,Unchanged,0 See DynDOLOD\Docs\DynDOLOD_Mod_Authors.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 zelazko Posted July 29, 2019 Author Share Posted July 29, 2019 (edited) This is how the LOD object mesh should look like? I attached original candle and mesh turned into LOD. I thought I would run it by you before doing entire mesh modification because there 57 meshes and I don't want to do them all over again if I made mistakes.mlos_lantern_01.7z Edited July 29, 2019 by zelazko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 sheson Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Yes that should work for candle LOD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 zelazko Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 I should the same with animated meshes like mlos_lantern_02_anim.nifmlos_lantern_02_hang.nifmlos_lantern_05_anim_with_hang_x1.4.nif Also some meshes are posts with candles e.g. mlos_light_post_02_whiterun_01.nif do the same to them too?

0 sheson Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 You remove as much from the nif as possible and keep the shapes that you want to be visible as LOD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 sheson Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 I included candle LODs in DynDOLOD 2.69 The mod also has a script that turns on/off a LIGHts. Since there is currently no LOD for these LIGHts nothing needs to be patched. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
