DynDOLOD 3.00 Alpha 182

Recommended Posts

I have this error and it is driving me crazy. DynDOLOD with Open Cities.

The bug: When I'm about to enter Whiterun it looks like in the photo then when I go through the gate it loads the textures.

I do the installation as explained in the tutorial, I deactivate all the open cities plugins to generate the trees and objects, then I edit the ini "WarnModFileName=Open-Cities-Skyrim ;Open-Cities-Skyrim "by "xOpen Cities Skyrim;Open -Cities-Skyrim" and activate the open cities plugins. I open the DynDOLOD and generate the dynamic LOD. But even though it loads, this happens to me in Whiterun. Does anyone have the solution?

Version of game : Skyrim AE 640. 

Version of DynDOLOD alpha 11

Read the first post which log and debug log to upload when making posts.

Why do you believe this has anything to do with DynDOLOD? What rudimentary troubleshooting have you done to come to that conclusion?

The issue description sounds like placed occlusion places/boxes, like a patch for eFPS is missing.

You are a genious! It was the damn eFPS boost, I don't know why I related it to the dynDOLOD. I think it was because I installed the lods before trying only open cities. Thank you. my head was burned. 

Closed thread. Problem = eFPS

Read the first post which log and debug log from DynDOLOD to upload when making posts. Since tehre was no problem running TexGen, it is unclear why you choose to upload those logs instead.

If you follow a third party guide and have problems with it, you need to ask its author(s), forum sections etc.

From the LODGen log:
Error accessing E:\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\Data\Meshes\Terrain\SkuldafnWorld\SkuldafnWorld.8.56.-5.btr Unable to read beyond the end of the stream.

From https://dyndolod.info/Help/LODG, which opens when clicking "Click on this link for additional explanations and help for this message" as explained on the first post:
Error accessing
There is a problem reading the mentioned *.NIF. Try to reinstall the file or mod from its download archive. Run the *.NIF through Cathedral Assets Optimizer. If the mentioned file is a *.BTR terrain LOD mesh, generate a valid one with xLODGen. If the file opens without error in NifSkope, make a post on the official DynDOLOD support forum and upload the *.NIF or provide a link to the mod etc.

As explained at https://stepmodifications.org/forum/topic/13451-xlodgen-terrain-lod-beta-97-for-fnv-fo3-fo4-fo4vr-tes5-sse-tes5vr-enderal-enderalse/ and the Readme.txt included in the xLODGen download archive and at https://dyndolod.info/Help/xLODGen:
Use -o:"c:\OutputPath\" command line parameter to change where files are generated to, default is the game folder. Then install output as a mod.
Do not generate into any game, any mod manager folders or special Windows folder like Program Files x86.

Alpha 111 with Resources A30

  • Got the following error:
<Error: File not saved [...]\DynDOLOD_Output\Meshes\DynDOLOD\NoHavok\slighthousefireoff_nohavok.nif: Range check error>

I suspect it's linked to the new feature added in Alpha 107 "create on-demand no havok models for dynamic LOD". I looked at the log of the previous generation I made with Alpha 108, and it contains the same failure, which I hadn't noticed at the time. There are successfully generated meshes in \DynDOLOD\NoHavok, it's just this one which fails.

The failure occurs during generation of dynamic LOD for the ssLightHouseWorld02 worldspace of this mod: Nebarra.

Architecture\Solitude\Clutter\SlighthouseFireOff.nif is used by an activator (xx955BF7 ssgwaSlighthouseActivatorOFF) placed into that worldspace. The source mesh slighthousefireoff.nif is provided by this mod: Embers XD (Lite version).

Full logs here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WfsuvihMBi-fYfSuF4w2VsMkpjS5u2ul/view

 

  • Trying to understand the source and purpose of a bunch of PlaneMarker references overwrites by DynDOLOD.esm in the SolitudeWorld worldspace.

I can see traces of them in the debug log, such as:

[00:08] [ApplyPatches] <Debug: Overwrite=skyrim.esm;0010c315>
[00:08] [ApplyPatches] <Debug: [1] Source Skyrim.esm [REFR:0010C315] (places PlaneMarker [STAT:00000017] in GRUP Cell Temporary Children of SolitudeOrigin [CELL:00037EE9] (in SolitudeWorld "Solitude" [WRLD:00037EDF] at -16,25))>

but I can't find any traces of them in [...]\DynDOLOD\Edit Scripts\DynDOLOD\Configs or Rules, when I look them up by Ref ID.

It looks like DynDOLOD is patching PlaneMarker references blindingly without any regards to any other changes? It's overwriting edits by mods such as eFPS or Legacy of the Dragonborn. Why is it doing that, is this the intended behavior and if so, what is its purpose, particularly in regards to LODs?

See previous link for full logs.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Probably another bug in the xEdit NIF writer code. Will check.
Regardless of that error, that NIF from Embers XD should be optimized in NifSkope for example (collapse link arrays, remove unused strings etc.)

The source of patches are always *.patch files. Scroll upwards until you find the the logline with the notice what patch the patches are from:
[00:07] [ApplyPatches] <Notice: Processing 67 patches from dyndolod\solitudeexterior_tamriel.patch>

DynDOLOD does not do anything "blindly, especially when doing optional things the user has to install on purpose. The Solitude Exterior esp (now patch) is an optional patch that exists since May/June 2016 before Skyrim Special Edition came out. The planes/boxes are adjusted so there are no issues when watching outside while being on the walls/roofs. No issues with the Solitude Exterior patch have been reported since then AFAIK.

Having trouble with the latest version v111.  It's been close to seven hours and DynDOLOD is still running.  Only error I am getting is [code]<Error: File not saved C:\DynDOLOD\DynDOLOD_Output\Meshes\DynDOLOD\NoHavok\mgmagicfirepillar01_nohavok.nif: Range check error>[/code] No other errors, except a bunch of large reference warnings.  Never had this happen before.  Usually takes around 2 hours.   Could be user error, I suppose.  Suggested troubleshooting areas to look at?  Thanks.

Thanks, @sheson  I forgot to check the FAQ.  I did add a new grass mod, Veydosebrom with complex grass option.  So maybe that could account for the lengthy time.  Anyway, I will leave it running while I am at work.  If it's not done by then, I will post a more formal question with logs, etc.

Hi, i am back. And now with TexGen errors.

1) I don't know why but TexGen seems to complaing about existing texgen data "Found stitched object LOD textures from earlier TexGen generation installed in game folder". I looked in every possible folder it might store its data and deleted what i could find but error is still prevalent.

Edit: Scratch second one. My pc is definitively haunted. Works now. Still get that warning about existing texgen data. 

Here are all relevant logs. https://paste.ee/p/9Qgq9 https://www.pastebin.cz/cs/p/Nnwk3xH https://www.pastebin.cz/cs/p/qWjxYCc

Yes I saw it and went to look for it inside the DynDOLOD package (Rules subdirectory) among the other *.patch files there, but couldn't find it, which made the patching even more mysterious and puzzling.

I got really confused when you mentioned it's optional, as there are no optional components when installing DynDOLOD. But then I realized you were talking about DynDOLOD Resources: it's the Solitude Exterior visual option, d'oh!

I used "blindly" in the sense that it appears the patch is applied to the load order indiscriminately even though it's probably designed to work on vanilla Solitude, overriding Skyrim.esm, not some other mod plugins. My Solitude is vanilla too, except for the LotD museum, so it's probably mostly fine, but I'd imagine it might mess things up with city overhauls, no?

Anyway, I've been bothered by a visual glitch for a long time that I presume is caused by occlusion plane(s) along the Solitude walls, but I'm not sure and I can't easily troubleshoot it by looking in the console, as there's nothing to click on.

Far view from inside Solitude worldspace > Closer view from inside Solitude worldspace

Close view from outside Solitude worldspace > Close view from inside Solitude worldspace

Any idea what may be causing this, do you think it looks like a PlaneMarker issue too? Any advice for troubleshooting the issue?

Thanks.

As explained on the first post, use the "Click on this link for additional explanations and help for this message" link for further help.

https://dyndolod.info/Messages/TexGen-Output

The message really means that there is still a file from former TexGen output installed in the load order. Deactivate the mod you created from the TexGen output in MO2. If you did that, then you might have a mod made by a confused mod author who did not pay attention to the DynDOLOD documentation.
