faff Posted April 11, 2023 Posted April 11, 2023 found out my issue, forgot to install one of the dyndolod scripts files from the resources download, don't know how I missed it. 1
Dova Posted April 13, 2023 Posted April 13, 2023 (edited) Hi guys. I have a strange situation here. I'm in the ENBSeries part of the post-processing guide. Installed everything as described. d3d11.dll and d3dcompiler_46e.dll and STEP Heavy ENB + recommended endlocal.ini Then I re-run the benchmark as mentioned in the guide. Everything was OK. FPS was acceptable, but around the Rift it sometimes got close to ~70. So, I went to try the light version, just for comparison. Removed all files from the Heavy and extracted the contents from the Light version. But now when I try to run the game, I get the message: "Unable to find the SKSE log directory". And it doesn't matter which ENB I try, the result is just the same... But here's what's weird: Without the ENB files, the game runs just fine. Maybe I accidentally deleted something, although I highly doubt it. And the folder with the log files is located in the Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\SKSE directory. Stuck with this problem for a few days. I would appreciate any help, or maybe if you have any guesses. Edited April 13, 2023 by Dova

ENB is manually installed in the actual game directory, and the binaries (DLLs) do not need to be changed. Only the preset files/folders need to be swapped (technically, only enbseries.ini is different among the presets). Just swapping this one file in your game directory shouldn't cause this issue. This is a DynDOLOD DLL error and has nothing to do with your ENB. Removing ENB files from the game directory should not fix this error. You have made other changes that we cannot know. It seems like you borked your SKSE or DynDOLOD DLL/Resources installation. Revisit the Extenders guide instructions to make corrections.
jskrub Posted April 17, 2023 Posted April 17, 2023 Hi, I hope this is the right place to ask for help. I am a super noob and have followed the STEP guide religiously up to the performance tuning section where the game crashes before even reaching the title screen. The dragon logo appears, progress bar fills, then CTD. Sorted and cleaned everything with LOOT, have some red messages like plugins missing but I believe that is resolved by the STEP Patch? I can't seem to find a crash log or anything either so I really have no idea where to start. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Are you strictly following the guide without any deviation like adding mods not in the list or skipping others? If the answer is 'yes' to both questions, then you missed an instruction somewhere. Most likely, you downloaded the wrong version of a mod or forgot to hide a plugin or not all installed plugins are enabled. There's too many possibilities to provide anything more specific without more detail.

The game will always CTD if you are missing required plugins.
