Always use the latest version. Do these problems happen with DynDOLOD Alpha-59?

Yes, issues are exactly the same with DynDOLOD Alpha-59 and Resources 3.00 Alpha 17. Just had the time to regenerate with the latest update now.

Edit: Just realized that I posted in the wrong thread, sorry. And yes I will upload logs shortly. The Ref ID for the Riften building is 63df7. The Ref ID of the rock/mountain piece is 6e1ed. But pretty much all LOD rocks are affected by this.

Logs: https://ufile.io/f/n6unf

I hope this helps to show what I mean with different LOD snow shader coverage:

Riften house will be next version.

As explained at https://dyndolod.info/Help/Snow-Ash-LOD-Shader, static object LOD uses one of two snow LOD shaders.

If the object LOD mountains are fully covered in snow like in the screenshot (assuming it is object LOD), it is typically either because a plugin changed the snow LOD shaders or maybe the LOD models have been replaced and they do not have a good vertex color alpha value which is used for the HD snow LOD shader.

I already checked, I use no mods that edit the snow shader/Material Object records, and the mountain LOD meshes in question are provided by Resources 3.00 Alpha 17.

Provide a form id of the full model or a location where you have those snow covered rocks.

The issue is the same for a lot of rock/cliff LOD assets. Here are just 2 examples: 

RockCliff02Snow01 [STAT:0001EF3B] Example ref ID: [REFR:00097F0B]

 

RockCliff08_HeavySN [STAT:0002ED7A] Example ref ID: [REFR:00028C51]

Read the first post which entire log files to upload when making posts.

Do not install the game into special Windows folders like Program Files x86 to avoid issues with UAC, anti vir etc.

You did not mention which mod contains the reported NIF.

Check that the mentioned NIF can be read by the tools. Make sure it has the Skyrim LE or Skyrim SE format. Run it through Cathedral Asset Optimizer for example.

Got this error with new dyndolod alpha and resources versions. Didn't get errors with previous dyndolod alpha and resources versions. New dyndolod resources is the only mod change.

Remove the NiVertexColorProperty from the 2 shapes with NifSkope. It doesn't exist in the full model and is not supported by the games engine.

Test with this LODGenX64.exe version. It should fix the snow on the rocks. Let me know.

I reran with the new executable and the issue seems to be the same - comparison with old and new LODGenx64 executable:

Base ID is 1ef3b, ref ID is 201114b. I had to switch to smaller worldspace (falmervalley/Forgotten Vale) to not generate gigabytes of output again, sorry. Just was faster to check.
