If required, use command line arguments to set the paths to certain directories and files. For example:
-m:"c:\Users\[USERNAME]\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition GOG\"

Use the -m, -p and -d command line arguments to set the INI, plugins.txt and Data paths when starting the tools. For example:
-m:"c:\Users\[USERNAME]\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition GOG\"
-p:"c:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Skyrim Special Edition GOG\plugins.txt"
-d:"c:\GOG Games\Skyrim Special Edition GOG\Data\"

You already needed to do this for xEdit which you must have used plenty of times before generating LOD with xLODGen or DynDOLOD.

That is the problem. I didn't do it for any of the tools including SSEEdit/xEdit as I didn't follow the installation post you linked. I run it from MO2 list and it worked. Only used it for quick clean and STEP provided cleaning procedure. Only did what was included in the guide (Not blaming the STEP Guide)

I should've been more careful about the file paths. But it really never come to mind to check.

Thanks again for providing help and useful links.

This topic has nothing to do with the Step guide process (which expects native Windows 10/11 env per system requirements), and the Step guides are not explicitly supported by DynDOLOD support. Using Linux/Wine requires special considerations for just about all modding tools, including MO that the Step guides do not support.

We prefer to keep discussions about the Step guide out of this topic, as it's irrelevant.

Having issues with TexGen hangs. I have done a lot of research already and did try the TexGenSSE.ini edits, but I still hang.

The issue: Prior to the ini edits, texgen would get stuck when generating files from textures, after the ini edits it now gets stuck when generating billboards.

For both situations I have let it sit for around 20 minutes then I check task manager and see all programs are at 0% usage.

I have only ever been able to get TexGen to work when I use BC3 compression instead of BC7(Default)

Why is this? Am I doing something wrong? Is it my PC specs? AMD Ryzen 5 3600 | Geforce GTX 1080 ti

Attached is the most recent log. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Unfortunately the logs archive does not contain the log and debug log from DynDOLOD but the ones from TexGen.

See the first post and/or https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#Post-Logs which DynDOLOD log and debug log to upload.

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

It is unclear what TexGen_SSE.INI you actually tried. The debug log contains that information.

https://dyndolod.info/FAQ#TexGen-DynDOLOD-stuck-while-creating-textures

BC7 uses Texconv to convert the compression, while BC3 does not. So most likely TexGen is waiting on a stuck Texconv.

From MO2 right window data tab find the billboards and make sure they are from TexGen output and upload them:
..\Textures\terrain\lodgen\skyrim.esm\reachtree02_000b8a74_1.dds
..\Textures\terrain\lodgen\skyrim.esm\reachtree02_000b8a74_2.dds
from DynDOLOD output upload
..\Textures\DynDOLOD\LOD\DynDOLOD_Tamriel.dds

Also upload C:\Modding\Modlist Wabba\Tools\DynDOLOD 3 Alpha 128\Edit Scripts\Export\LODGen_SSE_ObjectAtlasMap_Tamriel.txt

In the following meshes:

meshes\DynDOLOD\lod\trees\dlc1treewinteraspensnow03passthru_lod.nif
meshes\DynDOLOD\lod\trees\dlc1treewinteraspensnow05passthru_lod.nif

it looks like the Crown and Trunk terms added to the shape names are reversed. Crown is attached to the trunk shape and Trunk is attached to the crown shape.

Thanks.

BC7 uses Texconv to convert the compression, while BC3 does not. So most likely TexGen is waiting on a stuck Texconv.

I actually dont have that log since I had forgotten to save it before generating my BC3 compression so I could play the game but the ini edits to TexGenSSE.ini were 

LockTexconv=1

RenderSingle=1

RenderTexturesSingleThread=1

These edits cause texgen to hang when creating billboards on BC7 and without them I hang on creating textures with BC7

Texconv shows 0% during the hangs so I do know texgen is waiting for it I'm just stumped on how to fix it

If you would like I can go ahead and read them and run texgen again with the ini edits to generate a new debug log, but let me know if the info I gave is sufficient. Thanks for your patience. :)

Found this post searching, and with the latest version of DynDOLOD it doesn't give me an option to update it, it says either remove, or activate to update, and it's already activated in MO2 with the ESM and ESP activated, so I'm confused.

Oh dear, I meant to reply to this post. Seem to have misinterpreted the quote function, it's been years since I'm used any forum.

Without logs it is unclear if the settings have been applied correctly or what is happening.

If Texconv does not finish, then it means Texconv hangs and not that TexGen hangs.
