That information is a bit later in the guide, at the end of 21-Post-Processing. Maybe place it also in the beginning?

Today was too hot to go outside and I've spent too long on DynDOLOD to walk away with a few things left unanswered so I spent it trying to find out what the warnings I had left were, especially after noticing this:

If you are following the Step Guide, you will not get any "Textures Do Not Match" warnings in the DynDOLOD summary...

While testing that I was confused with Realistic Water 2.  They may not be Textures Do Not Match warnings but RWT2 was consistently giving 9 Filename * Does Not Adhere To File Naming Conventions:

DynDOLOD 3.00 Alpha 198 has a post asking for calmwater.dds to be added to the ignore list. I also think a solution is found so that this is resolved, but now it seems that calmwater.dds has changed name to rwtcalmwater.dds and so now warnings are shown in DynDOLOD again. FAQ mentions CalmWater.dds in a way that I think refers to it as out of date but I do get confused. I've also seen other posts in mods like Better Watercolor and Transparency for Realistic Water Two suggest renaming rwtcalmwater.dds back to calmwater.dds but that seems very bad advice.

You must be in the southern hemisphere. It's below zero for me.

I don't get those warnings from RWT, so post in DynDOLOD support with logs for answers.
