Is anyone encounter some snow problem?

[AtsushiATS]

do anyone know what might be causing this?

Might happen with Modded visuals.

Its difficult to find a perfect match of Snow/ Road/ Plants/ Grass/ Trees/ Light Texture combination but many times the cause can also be related to Projected UV Diffuse Normals Settings and Improved Snow Shader.

 

BethINI can make your life easier to configure these. Ideally you want Improved Snow Shader disabled, especially with modded visuals, Projected UV Diffuse Normals active with Default BethINI Recommended Settings. Will work for most mods.

Check also Projected Diffuse Patch HUB https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/57643 since its necessary for Better Dynamic Snow which i see you use. Fomod Installation Options of BDS Latest Version is also very important.

 

Some Information:

 

One problem you also seem to have is the Mountain Snow Texture not matching with Terrain but this one matches well with Skyrim Flora Overhaul or EVT Pine Snow which i see in the Background.

If you use anything from Skyrim 2020 Parallax, there is also Skyrim 2018etc. which complements it so it covers a bigger Texture Range and i think it should match with Majestic Mountains.

Majestic Mountains has also different Snow Texture options so maybe one will work but its Author covers all types of Textures too.

An Alternative could be Tamrielic Textures that covers all Landscapes and has Blended Roads too.

Now in Regards to Roads blending with the above it really depends.

Cathedral Landscapes for example seems to be the most difficult to blend with other Textures and Lightning/ Weather and i believe i saw some more noticeable seams between Texture mods and Obsidian or Cathedral Weathers.

Vivid Weathers seems to be one of the easiest to match with Textures and NAT is obviously the best because of its many variation/ configuration options.

 

Hope this helps tracking the issue.

I tested these with the ENB you run they should match well.

Its surely an issue between Snow Texture Mountain and BDS.

I suppose a Patch from ProjectedDiffuse Patch Hub specifically for Skyrim 2020 could help perhaps. There is one available.

Another thing that could be related is Parallax Shader Fix with BDS combination.

Kulharin at page 3 here https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/31963/?tab=posts&jump_to_comment=76811378&BH=1 mentions something about an SSEEdit Patch for BDS version 2.11. There is one for Synthesis Patcher available as well. Not sure if it helps.

ah i see well i believe its really because of my mod setup, yeah i installed it the 8k to 2k version of Skyrim 2020 parallax since i'm using that res, thank you for the link i've read it and i'm about to try the patch which i believe is this one https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/33278

ill try to run it after do another precache and DynDOLOD again, and thank you for all information you provided, i dont know if its work yet but at least you gave a possible fix which might really help me and i really appreciated it.

[AtsushiATS]

ok so i tried to do the stuff and it seems that the snow texture still the same but atleast the rock texture match (i think)

 

 

but i got another annoying bug after running the patch.. the map is broken, the marker are all floating and not in the right place and its too zoom out.. when i tried to zoom in/out its out of the border and turned white... i thought it might be broken the save file but when i try starting a new game the map still broken.. do anyone know how to fix it?

[AtsushiATS]

if anyone know how to fix atleast the map, i'll be very grateful..

[Deleted120957248User]

I don't know the exact cause of this problem with the map.

And that Rock, strange... There are a few Meshes within the Worldspace that always remain different. Maybe its a Mesh thing.

 

In regards to the Mountain Object Snow Texture, you did it fine. The only thing that can make it more matching maybe is tweak the terrain noise texture in Photoshop if you know how but it seems no matter what Mountain Textures (Rocks) always appear a bit darker. Maybe its a Mesh thing as well maybe just Skyrim being Skyrim no idea.

 

Don't know really. If you wont find any answers better Report it over to Stepmodifications forums. Seems the only community communication/ collaboration, troubleshoot, information, cooperation and feedback sharing here is limited to Bouncing Boob mods LOL

Looks like the main problem is that the activator for the "takeable" snow (presumably for the White Phial quest) isn't using the same snow texture as the rest of the snow.

I am not getting any snow problem at all.
