Version Recommendations - 2.3

1. Ensure that both x86 and x64 versions of Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019 are installed.
2. Download the Main File.
3. Extract the archive to the Tools folder (e.g. ..\Modding\Tools\DynDOLOD).
4. Create a folder for the application output called, DynDOLOD_Output: ..\Modding\Tools\DynDOLOD\DynDOLOD_Output

Configure MO Executable

Configure as follows (If necessary, revisit the Tool Setup in the guide.):

Application Title	Executable	Argument(s)
DynDOLOD	DynDOLODx64.exe	-SSE
TexGen	TexGen64.exe	-SSE

NOTE: The output paths are defined in the TexGen/DynDOLOD GUI and NOT in the MO executable configurations.

Modify INIs

The guide disables grass LOD by default. Instructions for enabling grass LODGen are also provided and may be enabled at a later time as instructed by the guide if adequate performance headroom is available.

Navigate to C:/Modding/Tools/DynDOLOD/Edit Scripts/DynDOLOD/DynDOLOD_SSE.ini, and modify as follows by removing the semicolons at the start of each line where necessary:

Expert=1

Level32=1 ComplexGrassBillboard=5  ; only necessary when using ENB ComplexGrassBacklightMask=25  ; only necessary when using ENB DoubleSidedTextureMask=mountain,mtn

DoubleSidedMeshMask=mountain,mtn

Navigate to C:/Modding/Tools/DynDOLOD/Edit Scripts/DynDOLOD/TexGen_SSE.ini, and modify as follows:

TreeMSAlphaThreshold=144

ENB post-processing

If ENB will NOT be used, then complex grass will not be used, so also set the following in TexGen_SSE.ini

ForceComplexGrass=0
