DynDOLOD 3.00 Alpha 182

[DarthVitrial]

Repeatable crash in alpha 165,  no bugreport.txt is generated. Always happens in the same worldspace, but running "check for errors" on the affected mod in xEdit 4.1.5b finds no errors.

The mod had previously been run through xLodGen (latest beta, 106) for Terrain LoD, height map, and occlusion generation. No errors were present in the xLodGen log.

I think this actually IS a bug in the mod, not DyndoLod, but I'm not sure how to identify/fix the problem. I'm working with the developer of the mod so if this is fixable on the mod's end I'd like to. (note, the mod version being worked on is not yet public, but I can DM it to you if needed)

 

Logs attached.

The error happens in LODGen while it generates object LOD meshes. There is no exception in DynDOLOD so there is no bugreport.txt and the issue is not caused by data in a plugin.

Check if the error is also 100% repeatable if LODGenx64Win.exe is used by installing .NET Desktop Runtime 6
Make sure LODGenx64Win.exe is being used by checking the DynDOLOD reports it something like
External: E:\Dyndolod\Edit Scripts\LODGenx64Win.exe, Version: 3.0.18.0, Date: 2023-12-15 19:00:00

OK, downgraded from .Net 8.0.1 to .Net 6.0.26, testing now.

While it should still report the error to the LODGen log, it should not stop the generation and create the 0 -32 BTOs.
Check E:\Dyndolod\Logs\LODGen_SSE_arnimaDUPLICATE003_log.txt, it now should also mention the LOD level like Error processing Merged 1 [LOD Level] 0,-32. Upload that BTO. e.g.
D:\Dyndolod\DynDOLOD_Output\Meshes\Terrain\arnimaDUPLICATE003\Objects\Tamriel.[LOD level].0.-32.bto
If you get the message for more than one BTO just upload the smallest file size one for LOD Level 4.

Start DynDOLOD in Expert Mode. https://dyndolod.info/Help/Expert-Mode
Select the arnimaDUPLICATE003
Change the Specific Chunk dropdown to 4.
Click "Execute LODGen" button. I am expecting it to run through without error.
Change Specific Chunk dropdown to 8.
Click "Execute LODGen" button. I am expecting it to run through without error

In case there are errors in those LOD levels let me know.

Using the same lodgenx64win as last time, right?

Doesn't matter if there is no problem in those LOD levels.

Hey @sheson I have a question that's kind of the opposite of the usual:

I have a 7800X3D and 64GB of RAM and a 24GB graphics card.   Data folder is on a PCie 4x4 drive and DynDOLOD is running on a different PCIe 4x4 drive.

Is it possible to tune DynDOLOD to use more cores/RAM to process faster?

Edit: it isn't slow and usually finishes in under 15 minutes.
