Also upload the DynDOLOD log and debug log. DynDOLOD_SSE_log.txt and DynDOLOD_SSE_Debug_log.txt.

https://mega.nz/file/cCtQWIiI#Uatk9W48xJ4j2LwIoFBRQHKeK_3bJJiwtB10VKTvzi4

Debug Log is 160mb?

Additional Info, if that is of relevance. I always copy paste my TexGen_SSE.ini, TexGen.ini, DynDOLOD_SSE.ini and DynDOLOD.ini (and my presets) from the previous version to avoid having to set up some stuff again. Could that be the culprit?

Follow https://dyndolod.info/Updating#New-DynDOLOD-Version when updating.

Download this test version https://mega.nz/file/AR5gnJZS#prYl4sWtUHTHG6Kp2Xcupf34O0-lwdbe0YePLF5m4hg and replace DynDOLODx64.exe.

Enable expert mode, start DynDOLODx64.exe and click Rebuild Atlas https://dyndolod.info/Help/Expert-Mode#Rebuild-Atlas, so it will generate new atlas textures.
Install them (you can merge with existing output replace the old texture) and test if the LOD is OK now.

Looking good! I'll run around some more to see whether I find anything but the trees I've sent before are definitely fixed. Visual Confirmation: https://imgur.com/a/RWnYC8Y It's the same pictures as before, but I've added "LOD Fixed" showing the same trees with the updated atlas.

Additionally I have not found any issues after looking at a few locations, so I think this has been resolved. May I know what had went wrong or if it'll be part of the changelog that'll be sufficient as well :)

The next alpha will include the fix of mipmaps sometimes being too bright.

Reposting for visibility due to accidentally "answering" my question by adding a note

Unsure as to what mod is causing purple trees/buildings. Some persisting even at close range, using LOD texture instead of real one

 

https://streamable.com/avtcmg
https://streamable.com/tzju1k

 

Above are videos displaying the issue

 

Below is a link to my dyndolod and texgen output files that created this

https://file.io/IkSmartsotJChttps://file.io/IkSmartsotJChttps://file.io/IkSmartsotJChttps://file.io/IkSmartsotJChttps://file.io/IkSmartsotJChttps://file.io/IkSmartsotJC

 

My main confusion here is what textures/mods are causing the issues where dyndolod is unable to properly generate the textures? Additionally Im a bit confused because Ive never seen LOD textures override main ones and persist at close range. To my knowledge for example Ryns whiterun city limits shouldnt have any issues with its stonewall texture but as you can see in the video its coming out purple.

 

If any additional logs are helpful let me know and I will provide them

Moved to the DynDOLOD 3 Alpha thread.

As explained on the first post and https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#Use-the-Latest-Versions, always use the latest version.

Generate tree LOD for the new load order or use ultra tree LOD to avoid these and other issues.

Might someone be able to indicate where I have gone wrong, please? [Win 10, Skyrim AE 6.640, MO2].

I have Traverse the Uldenwald in my game. From the base of SSElodgen and Texgen, I originally ran Dyndolod with Uldenwald version 3.3 and the trees were a mess, and the Ulvenwald mod was the cause. My fault - I didn't notice the author's Dyndolod warning about 3.3.

I thoroughly cleared the process and removed saves affected, and re-ran it with Ulvenwald 3.2.1.

In game, all looked fine and Dyndolod successfully initialised. I saved the game, closed it down and did other things.

On return, I started the game and loaded the save, and I found this, which is the same as what I got from the original Dyndolod run on Uldenwald 3.3. But I'd cleared the whole process and results from Dyndolod and the game.

On reloading the save I found this - the weird stuff has gone:

Onreloadingsave.thumb.jpg.3c3dacb531ab969782104adaca2609e7.jpg

I confess I did not clear the Dyndolod Cache, but I'd read (I cannot recall where) that clearing the cache was no longer necessary.  Anyhow, ideas and pointers to where I've gone wrong would be hugely appreciated. And if I can fix rather than re-run, that would be a bonus!

Thank you!

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.

Read https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#In-Game-Screenshots how to make useful screenshots of the full model with more informative console. If the LOD patch was made for the current load order, there has be to a full model for the stuck LOD. If the LOD itself has a formID that points to a DynDOLOD plugin it is probably dynamic LOD.

What you call base of SSELODGen means you used xLODGen to generate terrain LOD?
What you call "mess" means there was only tree LOD billboards and no 3D tree LODs? Or is there anotehr reason that the author make such wrong isntrctions

See https://dyndolod.info/FAQ#Billboard-tree-LOD-shows-in-active-exterior-cells if you generated standard tree LOD or https://dyndolod.info/FAQ#Object-LOD-shows-in-active-exterior-cells if you generated ultra tree LOD.

LOD only looks and works correctly for the load order it was generated for. If the load order changes afterwards, then LOD needs to be updated.

Ignore long outdated and wrong third party instructions to delete the DynDOLOD cache. Stick to correct and up-to-date instructions at https://dyndolod.info There is no need to invent extra unnecessary steps.

Tree/Object LOD meshes/textures do not affect or bake into saves or vice versa.

Thank you for your quick reply. Logs and Debug are attached now. Apologies for forgetting them.

What you call base of SSELODGen means you used xLODGen to generate terrain LOD?  Yes to that
What you call "mess" means there was only tree LOD billboards and no 3D tree LODs?    Mess, as in the huge deformed rough tree models beside the normal ones (as in my first picture).

As for the cache, I looked at the page you indicated, and it says nothing to answer my question. I take it that means I do not need to clear the Dyndolod cache in the Edit Scripts/ Dyndolod/  folder?  Sorry to ask but I'm a little autistic and struggle with instructions.

I viewed the game again. On first load up the large unfocussed leaves and tree models are there. If I reload the game save, they are all gone.  It is this behaviour that puzzles me.

 

PS the Debug file zipped is too big. Is there another route for you to see it?

Read the first post and/or https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#Post-Logs how to use a file service to upload large files.

When I refer to https://dyndolod.info I mean all instructions and pages. In this case https://dyndolod.info/Generation-Instructions and https://dyndolod.info/Help/Ultra-Tree-LOD seems most relevant. There is no mention or instructions on the website (or in the DynDOLOD 2.x documentation) to delete the cache folder. The documentation only includes required or necessary steps.

Always use the latest version.

Pay attention to all log messages. https://dyndolod.info/Messages
In this case these 2 might be relevant:
https://dyndolod.info/Messages/Billboard-For-Model-Has-Different-CRC32
https://dyndolod.info/Messages/Billboard-For-Model-Does-Not-Contain-Texture
Generate all billboards with TexGen before running DynDOLOD and install the TexGen output as a mod so it overwrites everything else.

Since you generated ultra tree LOD, see https://dyndolod.info/FAQ#Object-LOD-shows-in-active-exterior-cells

Ah, thank you. I understand what I've done wrong now.  I do try to read all the information, but I confess I struggle with it because I have poor concentration.

Many thanks for your help, Sheson, I truly value it.
