DynDOLOD 3.00 Alpha 182

[fireblast421]

Hello, after following the instructions for A Clear Map of Skyrim and Other Worlds and Worldspace Transition Tweaks and Generating LOD following the STEP Guide, I keep getting an Issue with Solstheim on the world map where a section of terrain fails to generate.

This is caused by using Worldspace Transition Tweaks and xLODGen Resource - SSE Terrain Tamriel together. Use only one or the other.

Hi guys! I need some help. I've generated xlodgen texgen and dyndolod, but only dyndolod seems to be giving me an infinite loading screen. When I disable it, my game runs fine. I really want to run the game with grass lod so im not sure why this isnt working.

I've redone this dyndolod step so many times now and I've noticed if I just dyndolod on high preset, it's fine, but i dont get grass lod. Only with the advanced option I can enable grass lod but it will give me Infinite loading screen.

Read the first post which explains to use a file service to upload large logs.

This is an issue with terrain though, which is done by xLOGen.

See https://dyndolod.info/Help/xLODGen#Requirements
Do not install any of the plugins in case a plugin from a mod already contains the restored data, for example like Worldspace Transition Tweaks.

The debug log gets replaced with every tool start. The debug logs you uploaded do not contain information of the generation session anymore.
You would need to run the tools again and save/upload the debug logs right away before starting the tools again.
Also see the first post which logs to upload in addition to the debug logs.

Also upload log and debug of the LOD generation that works without problems in the game.

You posted a list of game plugins instead of the actual lists of all mods. The list of plugins does not contain any DynDOLOD plugins.
Does that mean you already tested output without plugins and just the meshes/textures folder?

Okay, I will do that. I've narrowed the cause of the issue for Infinite loading to the grass lod being enabled or not in the dyndolod settings. However I want grass lod to be in my game. I am using AE skyrim. My steps were: XLODGEN,TEXGEN,DYNDOLOD.

 

I've also gotten the QW grass patch 2 pre-cache from here:

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/78707?tab=description

 

The culprit for Infinite Loading Screen is without a doubt, definitely Grass LOD. With it enabled I have it, With it disabled, I don't have it.

I am using vortex so plugins and load order are the best I can do to share my modlist unfortunately. I will put both so you can look at them, should you be curious.

The DynDOLOD log for the grass LOD generation shows a few messages like Billboard for model Meshes\...\grass\*.nif has different CRC32 for textures\...\*.dds
Generate TexGen with grass LOD billboards checked for the current load order before generating grass LOD to make sure grass LOD uses the correct billboards. This should not really affect the problem.

Regardless of that, for the output with grass LOD, disable/hide/move all 3 plugins to make sure the issue with the object LOD meshes/textures only.
If the ILS happens without the plugins, disable the DynDOLOD DLL NG mod just to make sure.
If the ILS the plugins and DLL, hide/move object LOD level 8 and 16 from the output as grass LOD is only in LOD level 4. Assuming the problem happen with Tamriel that would be all files with starting with ..\Meshes\Terrain\Tamriel\Objects\Tamriel.8.*.*.bto and Tamriel.16.*.*.bto. Just keep the files Tamriel.4.*.*.bto
If the ILS happens with only the Tamriel.4.*.*.bto let me kn ow for the next steps.

How large are all the Tamriel.4.*.*.bto file with the grass LOD compared to the non grass LOD?

Hi. Im updating lods from time to time, but always follow clear save procedure. And never had any problems. But now Im using alpha 122 and resources alpha 34 + DLL NG and scripts alpha 5 and after lod generation windmills are gone from my game. Not like windmills in the distance only, they are gone even if you approach them. Almost completly, only wings in the air. They are back if you disable output and they are present if I check on new game. Can that be fixed for my current save or is doomed and beyond repair?

Can confirm using only WTT fixes this issue. Had no idea that WTT included SSE Terrain Tamriel lol. Thank you both.

Thanks. I was wrong, windmills were gone even after I disabled dyndolod output. So there was something wrong with this save. I narrowed it down by loading saves with different dates that it happened (windmills gone) after lod regeneration at some point. So had to go few saves back when they are still present. Removed unofficial NG dll and scripts, installed only official Dyndolod DLL from nexus, did clean save, redone all lods and everything is now back to normal.

anyone know how to fix the pop up that says "Fatal: could not open registry key /SOFTWARE/Bethesda/Softworks/Skyrim"? I run the launcher like it says but that doesn't do anything to fix it

What game version/variant/localization? Using Steam?

If it's a standard, legal copy of the game and installed according to standards, then launching from Steam adds/updates the registry keys. You do this from straight vanilla. No mod manager or modding apps running.

This is the thread for DynDOLOD DLL.

https://dyndolod.info/Messages/Windows-Registry-Key

If the game launcher can not create the registry key, then you have maybe permission issues with the game or OS. Make sure the game is not installed into special Windows folders like Program Files x86 to avoid issues with UAC, antivir etc.
