MrPrideHyde Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Hi! Can someone please help me, TexGen has been giving me a lot of grief for the last few days, I tried choosing recommended settings, lowering those settings, changing various options in the INI file, e.g. RenderThreads=1, or adding TextureCache=10 at the end. The reasoning: 90-100 CPU usage, and when it drops to normal, the crash follows shortly after. I tried regenerating grass cache, parallax and xLODGen more than a few times, removed a mod I was suspicious of and did the previous steps again... If I understand the bugreport.txt file correctly, most of the time I'm getting an integer overflow error. No logs in the Windows Event Viewer, none inside the DynDOLOD folder either (except when I enable real time logging). Here's a zip file packed with logs, load order, bugreport and whatever was generated during the last run. This time I got an exception error though, the program ran for 2,5 minutes (previous averages were around 1 minute mark) and generated 30ish megabyte of output. Which is also strange, I used to get 70-90MB without real time logging and while getting those sweet integer overflows in less time! Almost sure I'm missing smth real obvious, here are the files: https://disk.yandex.ru/d/_F6aBbe978WaUQ P.S. I have the latest versions of everything I can think of, the Windows, Nvidia driver, NET and Visual stuff, Mod Organizer and DynDOLOD 3.00 Alpha 190, the DLL (NG version), resources too.

It is possible a source texture has issues. Do you have a mod containing textures\_resourcepack\landscape\grass\mesagrass02.dds? If so, which one or could you upload the texture? Not quite sure if this texture is related to the issue or not, though. Restore default TexGen_SSE.ini and run this test version https://mega.nz/file/BRYAFYgD#sk54a8RGSkX3Br0qF-qtEmLMS_XeuHOPaVwIqreFZYc If this runs without error it is possible a generated texture / billboard looks funny. Maybe not. Might be hard to see, if at all.

I brought back the original INI file, replaced the EXE with the one you provided, and it followed the same pattern, 1 minute generating, crash at a random tree or grass file, 70MB output, no error message, no log, only the bugreport file changed. Here's a fragment from the beginning: callstack crc : $731e0d9d, $94169911, $5d9c0414 exception number : 13 exception class : EIntOverflow exception message : Unknown.

No new realtime log or bugreport.txt was uploaded. Upload those entire logs. It will be at least in _ResourcePack.bsa. As usual, to find files in the data folder, use MO2 right window Data tab. Make sure enable the Mod column. Make sure to check Enable archives parsing under menu Tools, Workarounds tabs.

Sorry, tis as you said, I found _ResourcePack.bsa (classified as Creation Club: _ResourcePack), inside it: textures\_resourcepack\landscape\grass\mesagrass02.dds, I also skimmed through every other BSA file in Data, haven't found another mesagrass02.dds Wasn't able to unpack it using BSAopt, if the file itself is still necessary, pls share the correct method to extract it Here are the files from the most recent try (EXE version 188, default TexGen_SSE.ini except the added RealTimeLog=1): https://disk.yandex.com/d/nVZTjSahZJbnvw

This time it succeeded, at least I hope it did, the output is 160 MB (but I chose the Zip and Exit option, inside 7-Zip it shows about 329 MB size). I should probably mention that I did add about 20 mods to my modlist, but before that I had about 600 anyway, so I hope it didn't have a major impact. The only thing I changed besides that was the EXE file. Next step is I'm going to install it and try making a DynDOLOD out of it. Here are the log files and that one texture if they're still needed and in case I was celebrating too early: https://disk.yandex.com/d/1HQqbuB30RQkaQ

Usually related to UAC or antivir etc. Just to double check, see if the folder E:\SkyrimTools\_DynDOLOD_Output\textures\pbr\architecture\markarth\ still exists. It is created just before it tries to save a the file to it.

Still not sure if all rendered billboards will be OK but I wouldn't worry unless you see something weird in the game. Like bad/missing transparency for grass/tree LOD billboards.

I have verified that the folders (there is another error pointing to dungeons/dwemerruins) exist and are writable by me. Manually creating the folders and running the tool lead to the same basic result: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1J_T5GDpxyMTxVzwL9wiNcl4bEvrgsvps/view?usp=sharing I have my temp folder mapped to a separate drive in order to prevent C: from getting filled up; I wonder if it has something to do with that.

Do you intend the underscore in DynDOLOD_Output? Cannot create file "E:\SkyrimTools\_DynDOLOD_Output\textures\pbr\architecture\markarth\mrkrockdesigns01linear.dds". Maybe it should be: E:\SkyrimTools\DynDOLOD3\DynDOLOD_Output\ These things almost always reduce down to a simple thing.

Like bad/missing transparency for grass/tree LOD billboards. Hey, I'm back, DynDOLOD this time. Bugreport says Integer overflow, yet I also got an Access Violation popup window. First time in "Grass Bounds.esp", then I disabled it, ran again, similar situation. With RealTimeLog=1 it takes half an hour merely to get to the error message and generates nothing inside DynDOLOD_Output folder. Here's everything: https://disk.yandex.com/d/bb1qu-z3E3esxw
