Hi Sheson, I've done some reading on the updating page and basically I got a notification on my mod manager telling me TexGenx64 needs to be updated and probably DynDOLOD too. Just making sure, I gotta remove my current DynDOLOD Resources and DynDOLOD DLL scripts to proceed?

https://dyndolod.info/Updating#2-Update-DynDOLOD-Installation
Install any new version of DynDOLOD Resources with the mod manager as usual, replace the old version.
Install any new version of DynDOLOD DLL as required, replace the old version.

Hello,

Quite recently, my save file started getting this kind of active scripts.

It does not making game unplayable or something, but I have bad experience of save bloating and it was started like this.

Is this look usual?

https://ibb.co/KqY5qwc

Active scripts are normal if the game is saved and a script is currently running. It will continue and finish once the save is loaded. That is not the cause of script bloat.

DynDOLOD-README.txt
Dynamic LOD uses papyrus scripting. The scripts are passive, very light weight, highly optimized and use threading. Please test thoroughly before using for a play-through. Follow update instruction in the manual if generating new DynDOLOD plugins.

DynDOLOD uses scripts for dynamic LOD since 10 years and has millions of unique downloads/users and a support forum with 10 thousands of posts , which also document the development, problems and their rapid solutions. There was never a report about save bloating, which is expected since the scripts do not use any of the methods that could cause save bloating.

Also see https://dyndolod.info/FAQ#Script-instances
Script instances are harmless. A script instance is just data for a script that is currently not active, so the script can execute more efficiently the next time it is active.
The scripts of DynDOLOD are not at all script intensive. There are no scripts that are constantly running. It uses small highly optimized papyrus scripts for dynamic LOD, which run in parallel only when needed at the moment dynamic LOD models are enabled or disabled.
Consider using the large reference bugs workarounds were all of the dynamic LOD is done in the DynDOLOD DLL NG instead of papyrus scripts.

Using City Entrance Overhaul Windhelm, the bridge becomes invisible once distant enough. I understand I probably need to create a rule in dyndolod but I have no idea which rules I should put in.

Read the first post and/or https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#Post-Logs which DynDOLOD log and debug log to upload when making posts.
Also upload ..\DynDOLOD\Logs\DynDOLOD_SSE_Object_Report.txt

Post a useful screenshot of the full model with more informative console as explained in https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#In-Game-Screenshots

Unless a mod replaces the full model with a NIF for which a LOD model does not exist, a rule (to use the full mode for LOD) is typically not required.

Unfortunately it seems that the DynDOLOD debug log was already overwritten.

So, the mod that actually change the bridge in tis case is the Lux Orbis - Patch. City Entrance Overhaul Windhelm uses the vanilla bridgelong01.nif AFAIK - for which a LOD model exists.

Merge attached meshes and textures with DynDOLOD Resources and then generate object LOD for Tamriel.
Check if the LOD model looks OK. Post an new screenshot for comparison if possible.
It is possible that the pre-rendered LOD texture does not match your setup as well (That will be better with the next alpha versions of the DynDOLOD Standalone and DynDOLOD Resources).

So, if you want to use the full model for LOD, then the mesh mask rule would be:

Mesh Mask: bridgelong02.nif
VWD: checked if you installed attached LOD model, otherwise leave unchecked
LOD Level 4: Full
LOD Level 8: Full (or Level1 if you installed attached LOD model)
LOD Level 16: Full (or Level2 if you installed attached LOD model)
Grid: Far Full or Far LOD
Reference: Unchanged

Thank you for your effort, I will make sure to add the rule + the file and regenerate and I will update you here. Thanks again. Btw the mesh mask: should it be landscape/bridges/bridgelong02.nif or only bridgelong02.nif?

Just bridgelong02.nif is sufficient to match that full model.

Dear sheson

 

Regarding past Topic on this issue : https://stepmodifications.org/forum/topic/17510-dyndolod-300-alpha-173/?do=findComment&comment=273573

I am having the same issue myself now, current game it stopped working suddenly (after using it for a while).

Starting a new game and after generation it still does not work and no crows show at all. If I disable Flying Crows mod then TEXGEN & Dyndolod and then re-enable the mod after it now works. This test is repeatable.

So after TEXGEN & Dyndolod  it seems to stop the mod working regardless of new game or not.... 

 

Thanks..

Enable and upload the papyrus log as explained in https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#Post-Logs
Also upload C:\Users\Jay29\\Documents\My Games\Skyrim VR\SKSE\DynDOLOD.log

While probably not related, do not install DynDOLOD into MO2.

https://dyndolod.info/Installation-Instructions
Use 7-Zip to unpack the DynDOLOD Standalone archive into a new and empty 'DynDOLOD' directory that is outside of special OS folders like 'Programs Files' or 'Program Files (x86)', User, Documents, Desktop, Download and also not in SteamApps, game, Data or any mod manager folders. For example C:\Modding\DynDOLOD\. Ensure that the directory structure is preserved. See Updating how to update existing installation and save games.
