DynDOLOD 3.00 Alpha 196

[runjimmyrun1]

Hey!  

I am new to DynDOLOD, and I am having difficulty generating the lod. I am using the Alpha 3 version. I downloaded and installed all the the required files, followed the instructions from GamerPoet's tutorial, including prioritizing my load order the way that was instructed, generated Texgen, zipped and saved, moved zip folder into Vortex and installed and activated it, where nothing overrides it, and I get through the part of the lod gen where I choose the lands and settings (medium), but it always crashes about 3 minutes in. It's always around LC's Feudal Keep, so I disabled that, to see if it would make a difference, and it still crashed at about the 2:30-3 minute mark of trying. I tried around 5 or 6 times.  

Am I missing something? Suggestions?

Read https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#In-Game-Screenshots how to take screenshots with information.

See answers for https://dyndolod.info/FAQ "Out of place or floating objects"

I understand that the Dyndolod overlaps dynamic objects (which change during the execution of quests, for example burned houses in Helgen). Textures that are superimposed on objects are not tangible.

DynDOLOD adds dynamic LOD for dynamic full models. The dynamic LOD should only show outside the active cells, when the full model is not shown anymore.

For some reason, my Texgen hangs about an hour and 20 minutes into the process and never completes. I notice that it's not that the program stops responding but it just hangs. This hasn't happened in the past so I'm not sure why it's happening now. I've left it running overnight and it still never completes. If I'm not mistaken it hangs while generating LODs for shipwoodfloor03lod.dds. at least the last two times I've tried running it that's what it got stuck on. Is there anything I can do to get Texgen to finish running?

 

 each time it gets stuck at the same point where it says:

 Creating B:\Modding\DynDOLOD\TexGen_Output\textures\lod\shipwoodfloor03lod.dds from 1 textures

TexGen is probably waiting for a TexConv process to finish.

Add LockTexconv=1 under [TexGen] in B:\Mods\Skyrim\DynDOLOD\Edit Scripts\DynDOLOD\TexGen_SSE.INI and see if that changes anything.
It helped users with the same problem a couple pages back where TexGen seems to be stuck or stopped.

Are you on an AMD system? If so, see this post:

Not sure if this is worthy of a post here, but I just wrote another LOD generation guide in Chinese (link if someone here needs it for some reason). 40000 Chinese characters this time, which should translate to about 20000 English words. Probably one of the most thorough guides out there, excluding of course Sheson's own. I mean, theoretically there's no need for a 3rd party guide since no one can write it better than Sheson already did, but reading the official documents isn't easy for most Chinese players, not to mention they probably don't really know its existence. Well, my guide probably won't make much of a stir since it's still far too long to be an easy read, but every little bit counts, I guess. The majority of the content is information pulled from the official documents, though I did add some of my own findings and recommendations. Should be mostly accurate, though I could also be wrong.

Anyway, thanks Sheson for your constant efforts at improving Skyrim's LODs, for writing the best LOD guide the Skyrim modding community could ever hope for, and for answering every question thrown at you in the forum over the years. Consider this the submission of my firstborn.

Really read the message. The message states a fact.

The version of the DynDOLOD Resources Core files which are installed in the load order is older than the version required by the DynDOLOD Standalone version you are using.

The download archives available on the different DynDOLOD mods on Nexus are always the latest versions for their respective game and DynODLOD 2.x/3.x versions . So are the download links on the first post.

 No actual information was provided. If you require further help, upload the log.

真的看了留言。該消息陳述了一個事實。

在加載順序中安裝的DynDOLOD資源核心文件 的版本比您正在使用的DynDOLOD獨立版本 所需的版本舊。

Nexus 上不同DynDOLOD模組 的下載檔案始終是其各自遊戲和 DynODLOD 2.x/3.x 版本的最新版本。第一篇文章中的下載鏈接也是如此。

 沒有提供實際信息。如果您需要進一步的幫助，請上傳日誌。

So how can i solve this problem, where can i download the same version of the dyndolod resources core files, thank you.

Moved to the DynDOLOD 3 Alpha thread. Read the first post how not to post screenshots of messages and instead use the "Copy message to clipboard" link in order to paste text. https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum
DynDOLOD Resources SE core files are outdated

DynDOLOD 3 Alpha requires DynDOLOD Resources SE 3 Alpha. You have DynDOLOD Resources SE 2.x for DynDOLOD 2.x installed.

This is explained and linked in the first post of the DynDOLOD 3 Alpha thread.
The official online documentation that can be opened by clicking the "Online Help" or using the "Click on this link for additional explanations and help for this message" link from the message would lead you to https://dyndolod.info/Downloads, which has the links.

Pay attention to the requirements on Nexus when downloading DynDOLOD 3 Alpha. It also has the link:

Searching this forum for the message finds this thread https://stepmodifications.org/forum/topic/18692-dyndolod-resources-se-core-files-are-outdated/

For some reason texgen will just stop generating textures around 7 minutes and 30 seconds not always that time but it's usually close don't know why though here's the Texgen Debug log and the sse log
