TexGen is being terminated prematurely, suddenly closes

[3fast5you]

So I tried to look around and search for someone with a similar issue, but couldn't really find a fix that worked. Apologies if I missed something.

TexGen stops responding and eventually crashes when it reaches the "Creating billboards" part.

No TexGen logs, but Event Viewer has this to say:

Faulting application name: TexGenx64.exe, version: 3.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x61d2f1a9

Don't know if it is worth mentioning, but originally I had a different error message in the Event Viewer, but then I ran System File Checker, and now I get the above error.
Here is the one before I ran SFC:

Make sure to use a legal game that does not contain corrupted assets or BSAs

Once TexGen reaches the end and waits for Texconv like this, give it time to complete. You system seems incredible slow and you might just be impatient for Texconv to finish at the end. You can check for Texconvs still working in Windows task manager.

Change texture compression to from BC7 to DX1 and DXT5 should reduce time and use of Texconv.

thanks for your response.. for now i give up.. maybe my video card doesn't support texconv

According to the logs Texconv is used without error many many times.

I have tested the last 4 releases of TexGen64 with MO2 2.5.2 and a rather large mod list. So issue is present with Alpha-194 (DLL NG Alpha-36).
The program runs fine until it stalls for several seconds (last message: basic billboard records, so mods are loaded).
Afterwards it exits (or crashes) silently. I checked that all requirements are installed (Windows 10).

The problem is for me I have zero log output or bugreport files generated. The folder "Logs", "Edit Scripts", "TexGen_Output" are generated.
I also see that it generates several subfolders like Cache or Presets.

Are there any possibilities to find out what happens? I can only speculate if issues are related to mod conflicts in Bill Boards causing this behaviour or something completely else. As I tried out multiple releases and the behaviour is very similar, the issue could be unrelated to recent changes.

Last time I used TexGen64 in february (and the installation folder is still all the same as well as MO2 version), but the installation then was much smaller. The only thing what I could try beyond this is try to run TexGen64 with that much older release if that is helpful for analysis.

Moved to an appropriate thread for the problem. See posts above. See https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#Use-Search

Read https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum#Post-Logs how to enable and upload the realtime log in case the program is terminated prematurely.

Thank you. I think I have found the cause why it was not started. The start of the UI was blocked by another program, that was already running a longer time in an unstable state (crash, restart). I also had issues with communication between MO2 and steam, but had not rebooted since I fixed it (only restarted steam and MO2).

So it looks like not an issue with TexGen64. The only thing I noticed that the logs are getting generated very late (which is good when you just accidently start and exit, but kind of confusing if you do not know that the UI should show up directly after "bill board gathering records" message. So thank you for the proper documentation link!
