Ok I'll do it in a bit, should I do it with the PineAtlas I provided or with the default one?

EDIT: the experimental dyndolod doesnt do anything beyond "Gathering LOD Assets"

Read the first post and/or https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#Post-Logs which DynDOLOD log and debug log to upload.

Do it with PineAtlas.dds you uploaded. When I use it, the background colors are kept on the object LOD atlas texture.

So, I did some digging in my files and I found where those files located! I will need to go back and reinstall "Cathedral Landscapes" and "Skyrim Realistic Overhaul" it looks like. https://ibb.co

At least now with the test version you provided you re-fixed everything again. Coding/programming is sometimes just a mysterious thing. Thank you for all your work you put into DynDOLOD - even if

One example record mentioned in xEdit:
https://ibb.co/LZqZr5X

And the corresponding record inside of DynDOLOD.esp
https://ibb.co/JcMZpys

And here are the logs:
https://www.file-upload.net/download-15445308/Logs.7z.html

I am using DynDOLOD Alpha 182 and the most recent SE Resources from Nexusmods. I've searched my mod folder and with the resource explorer from xEdit but wasn't able to finde that specific nif file BEFORE generation.
After the generation has finished, the file is indeed present (in the directory as it's mentioned in the report) and part from the DynDOLOD output.
So maybe this is a false positive?

The webiste www.file-upload.net wants me to disable ad-blocker in order to be able to download the files. Can you use another service?

meshes\dyndolod\lod\clutter\campfire01landburning_dyndolod_lod.nif from DynDOLOD Resources seems to be overwritten by an outdated version from a mod.
The file should not contain any collision data, including unsetting the BSX Bit 1: Havok flag.

There should then be no need for an additinal no havok version.

Ok, than I know where I have to look and what I need to change. Thank you. It's not really outdated, but edited meshes from EmbersXD to match the flamestyle with (not really optimized) a bit less polygons. I deleted the collision, but haven't thought about the flag.

Dynamic waterfall LOD from DeepwoodRedoubtWorld ("Deepwood Vale") can be seen floating in Tamriel worldspace when fxwaterfallbody is set to NeverFadeLOD.  This issue does not happen when using the default Mesh Mask / Reference Rules for fxwaterfallbody.

The test version of DynDOLOD fails before reaching the configuration screen with the following error about Realistic Water Two v5.7.2 (latest):

Error: Error in RealisticWaterTwo.esp: FallowstoneCaveWorldStart [WRLD:000243DE] does not match expected 00020DCB. The plugin needs to be fixed or permanently removed. RealisticWaterTwo.esp BlindCliffCaveWorld "Blind Cliff Cave" [WRLD:00020DCB]

Full logs:

https://ufile.io/b8dj364e

After removing RWT, I was able to confirm that the patched DynDOLOD / DynDOLOD DLL NG fixes the original reported issue.  I did a few spot checks to confirm that waterfalls still look correct at various distances.  No obvious regressions.

If you address the RWT compatibility issue, I'll be happy to test it more thoroughly. :)

I compared several screenshots with/without the patch in both Tamriel and Deepwood Vale. The floating waterfall issue is resolved. No other visual differences/anomalies were observed, except an intermittent issue with dynamic waterfall LOD described below.

To test the patch, I made several saves and "before" screenshots with Alpha-182 output, then loaded those saves with the patched output to take "after" screenshots. In several cases, distant dynamic waterfall LOD was missing in the "after" screenshots. This could sometimes be corrected by loading an interior save first and stepping outside, but not always.

Here is a pair of screenshots with LOD disabled to illustrate the difference.

https://imgbox.com/9mlVauNV (Alpha-182)

https://imgbox.com/yVeDWM7X (patch)

This issue doesn't happen when the save/load use matching DynDOLOD output, so I'm not sure if this is a bug or expected behavior. Let me know if you'd like more info.

See https://dyndolod.info/Updating and https://dyndolod.info/Help/Clean-Save

You should not load old saves  made with a different LOD patch output with the new LOD patch output. You need to make a clean save in an interior between LOD patch updates from scratch.
To make comparisons, make a virgin save that never saw any LOD patch output plugins. If there are problems when using clean/virgin saves, report them with logs and screenshots.
I also suggest to restart the game between loading different saves. The engine does not always seem to reset everything properly.

Thanks for the clarification. I recreated the "after" screenshots from a new game using the new LOD patch output. This resolved the dynamic waterfall issues.

Hi,

I have this issue with Giant Campfires only, was not sure if it was embers XD, but without Dyndolod enabled, everything works fine, the campfire, flames and all. Without Dyndolod enabled, the campfires are fine.
With Dyndolod however, you get only the Logs, no flames or particles

At this point, if I save and reload the save, the entire campfire is gone:
