RedHelix Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Hi guys, hope everyone is having a nice night. I'm using the GOG anniversary edition, when I try to use the -m, -d, and -p commands I get the following error message Spoiler [Window Title] TexGen [Main Instruction] Installation path not allowed. [Content] R:\DynDOLOD\ Reason: game data: \ Click on this link for additional explanations and help for this message it says something in additional explanations about my installation paths, but I don't have it in my game folder at all. When I google around its mostly people installing either their game, or dynodolod itself in a uac protected folder or something which I know I haven't done. I also tried putting the dynDOLOD folder on c:\ and get the same error message. What am I missing? Here is what my command arguments are. Quote R:\DynDOLOD\TexGenx64.exe -m "C:\Users\Reese\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition GOG" -p "C:\Users\Reese\AppData\Local\Skyrim Special Edition GOG\Plugins.txt" -d "R:\Other Libraries\GOG Galaxy\Library\Skyrim Anniversary Edition\Data" -sse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! I don't plan to regenerate LOD in a while, but will tell you if it doesn't work when I have done so (but checking the contents of the file, I don't see why it wouldn't).

BuddyKidd Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) What would keep the Large reference bugs workarounds and the Downgrade FarGrid references to NearGrid options from showing up? There is a blank space where they should be. I am using DynDOLOD 3.00-68518-Alpha-167. *Nevermind. It was because I didn't have DynDOLOD DLL NG and Script enabled.

Blackread Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) I haven't managed to complete the troubleshooting for the on load crashes yet, still working on it. But I wanted to ask for some clarification about how texture transparency works with LODs. The dyndolod website states the following: Quote LOD does not support alpha blending of textures. It can either be transparent or not and the threshold is typically 128. In case a full model texture uses alpha or a different threshold, consider creating a dedicated object LOD texture with the threshold in mind. If the full model texture uses alpha, will the parts of the texture below the threshold always be transparent, even if the LOD model in question doesn't have a NiAlphaProperty in the block that uses said texture? So if I don't want the texture to be transparent at all, is the only way to make a dedicated object LOD texture without alpha?

If you do not want something to have transparency, the alpha channel needs to be removed from the texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyrimfreak360 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Hi Sheson, obviously I can't extract DynDOLOD to the following paths; Program Files, Program Files (x86), User, Documents, Desktop, Download. But I'm also unable to have DynDOLOD work by creating a new folder for the C Drive or putting it in my Games Drive... This is my first time trying to start up DynDOLOD so getting guidance from someone like you or any moderators here will be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answers are: The paid mod adds a new full model but does not contain a LOD model. The next version of the free DynDOLOD Resources SE will include a LOD model.

For some reason, I am getting a total mismatch for the LOD model for sbluepalacegate.nif during winter (but during the other seasons it looks fine). I am using a custom form swap for this object during winter, but the replacement is using the same mesh. I tried using mesh mask rules to get LOD for this building, perhaps I screwed something up? The generated object LOD mesh can be found here, please tell me if you need anything else: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/yui7f3dhiqo5y62eylu30/Tamriel.4.-16.24.WIN.bto?rlkey=fohj4dpjul471rmn3e4i13afh&dl=0 Moreover, Mistveil Keep is not showing up on the map, and I have no idea what is causing it. It is getting level 4 and level 8 LOD, but not level 16 LOD. I am using Open Cities, but I don't know why that would matter. As far as I can tell, the generated DynDOLOD files are not touching the object, nor its worldspace references. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
