Improvements for mods, rules, LOD models

[Jonado]

Hi! I'm having a couple of DynDOLOD related issues. To begin with, I am using both Legacy of the Dragonborn and Drengin's Blue Palace (+appropriate patches), and the terrace looks like this:

It looks like the custom rules for Legacy of the Dragonborn don't respect other mods adding references to that area. I can resolve it manually, but would be convenient if this could be fixed in the generation already.

Another thing that I have been struggling with for quite some time is some objects in Windhelm that don't have LOD, despite that I am setting them as "Visible when distant". So when looking towards the city, there is just a gap and a floating platform where the buildings were supposed to be. The following screenshots show what it looks like in summer with Seasonal Landscapes - Unfrozen, but it is the same also during other seasons:

I hope you can help.

I don't get this to work. I did as you said (and carefully read the information on the page you linked), yet TexGen is not generating any of the new textures. Is there some extra step needed?

Use this TexGenx64.exe test version https://mega.nz/file/ZFJjGSza#poJkUQSWdfCso9mANrJOL47xCFdeZKGl-8QhYf5CySc

Use DynDOLOD 3 Alpha 168

Also keep subfolder 'lod' in the path, e.g. ..\Data\DynDOLOD\Render\Skyrim\Objects\lod\slod04AUT.nif

That worked, thanks. I have now uploaded the render files to the same page as the Seasonal Landscapes LOD files.

Posted in the wrong thread. You can ignore this message (although it would be nice if you could have a look at incorporating the missing LOD rules into DynDOLOD at some point).
