Without ENB the LOD grass is matching the full grass types, but the darkness makes the brown grass look the same as the green grass at a distance. ENB Off: But with ENB enabled, the green and brown grass can be seen from a distance. I just need to reduce the brightness of the grass LOD slightly to match the shadows on the full grass. Enb On: ENB can light distinctive types of full models (shaders) differently, while typically object LOD is treated the same regardless of what it depicts. The direction light is coming and its color affected how things look. https://dyndolod.info/Help/Grass-LOD#Settings In case the grass LOD brightness or color seems off (it might depend on weathers or ENB settings), try different Direct/Ambient settings for grass LOD billboards in TexGen. In addition or alternatively change the GrassBrightnessTop*/ComplexGrassBrightnessTop* and GrassBrightnessBottom*/ComplexGrassBrightnessBottom* settings in ..\DynDOLOD\Edit Scripts\DynDOLOD\DynDOLOD_SSE.ini - those settings help if the color tone is off. Especially the image based lighting effect from ENB has a big impact on the brightness and color tone of the grass LOD. Additional complex grass lighting and time of day settings will obviously not apply to object LOD, as they are separate meshes and shaders. Do not use them so full grass and grass LOD match better for all weathers/times. https://dyndolod.info/How-LOD-Works LOD does not cast or receive shadows. This can be mitigated by the ENB distant shadow effect or Screen-Space Shadows. https://dyndolod.info/Help/Grass-LOD#Internal-Billboards-and-External-Billboards

sasquatch678 Posted June 13 Posted June 13 Keep getting this error message when running Dyndolod. The page that pops up has no additional information or help explaining the error. https://imgur.com/kYopadb Things I have tried: -restarting my pc -reinstalling Dyndolod -rerunning xLodgen and Texgen -adding Dyndolod, Lodgen, and Texgen as exclusions in Windows Defender I was running Dyndolod a few days ago and it worked fine. No changes have been made to my mod list, other than textures. Dyndolod will initially run fine, after ~13 minutes it will say waiting for Lodgen64 to run, then for ~15 minutes more nothing else will appear in the log. Then this message appears. Additionally, no log is generated.

someguyidk Posted June 14 Posted June 14 45 minutes ago, DoubleYou said: Please update to the latest version of xLODGen. The latest is the beta v.112 right? I'm still getting the error somehow. I don't imagine that my textures are too far from vanilla so I'm just use yours for now.

I don't imagine that my textures are too far from vanilla so I'm just use yours for now. I reread your question. I see now you said TexGen. This is the xLODGen topic, so I thought you were using xLODGen. Latest TexGen is alpha 171 currently.
someguyidk Posted June 14 Posted June 14 (edited) 2 hours ago, DoubleYou said: Please update to the latest version of xLODGen. My mistake, I thought this was a catch-all for all of Sheson's mods. I am using the latest versions of all of his mods but I'm still getting that same error. Oh well. In any case I generated the LODs with your mod and everything looks great except tree LODs overwrote the ones from A Forest. I should have paid closer attention. With this and PRP everything looks and runs fantastically. Modding FO4 in 2024 is in a pretty sweet spot, even with the NG debacle. Edited June 14 by someguyidk
ExquisiteLemon Posted June 16 Posted June 16 Having major issues getting TexGen to run. I have used DynDOLOD 3.0 for multiple playthroughs in the past with no issue, and I currently cannot get TexGen to run without crashing and leaving no log behind after about 1 minute of trying to create lods. I have all the requirements, and have recently just switched from the scripts and dll to the NG version of the plugin in an attempt to get things working. I am on Skyrim AE 1.6.40. I have tried using both 32 and 64 bit versions of TexGen. I have the resources for DynDOLOD being overwritten by everything that is conflicting with it, and have tried reversing these dependencies to no avail. I have been frequently restarting my PC, as well as clearing the TexGenOutput folder every time the program fails and boots to desktop. Currently on the newest release of DynDOLOD (Alpha 171). The only new mod I have added to my modlist is Skurkbro's Part 4 which in includes LODs and clutter, TexGen still does not run upon removing this. I am really banging my head against the desk with this one if anyone could point me in the right direction. I would include logs from the folder but like I mentioned, TexGen is not generating them upon what I think is a crash.
