scathtroy2147 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/6642 I previously done an LOD gen on skyrim AE before I reinstalled the newer version of skyrim. Will this work well enough? Is there a newer version? Alternatives? I'm been doing web research on it. Thanks...

ModEnjoyer52 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) Trying to generate LOD on GOG 1.6.1179? Try using XLODGen, TexGen, and DynDOLOD. These are the three steps in sequence. There is an online manual that can guide you through beginner to advanced steps: https://dyndolod.info/ If you want to do it well, it is best to patiently read the manual and not waste time looking for shortcuts elsewhere. It is very effective in generating great LOD and you can configure how much detail for the power of your system.

scathtroy2147 Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 (edited) This is REALLY complex. I still need to xedit to clean any mods first. Thanks. Step #1. The stable LOD gen 2? Or the alpha 3 version for GOG AE 1179 Edited March 22 by scathtroy2147 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModEnjoyer52 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) Go with the 3 alpha, it's got more features and despite being alpha it doesn't have any perceivable problems on my end at least. I like that you are reading the instructions and doing things in the right order. It will save you so much time in the long run and give you a more stable game. If you have a lot of plugins to clean, you can use something like this (for MO2, don't know about Vortex equivalent) https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/59598?tab=description Edited March 22 by ModEnjoyer52 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scathtroy2147 Posted March 23 Author Share Posted March 23 (edited) In the unquiet dead quest, the boy skeleton and sword are invisible. I suspect it's some mod, see post. I've done mod cleanings before. Both steps, now give deprecated messages. Quote The Manual Cleaning functions are deprecated and no longer available. Any guides suggesting a manual cleaning process are outdated. Please ask the author of the guide to remove any cleaning steps from their guide. Is there anyway to do all mods at once? ssedit/xedit Starting it using MOD2. I have SSEedit and quickautoclean which seem to be the same app. ?? Skip the default system AE mods. include USSEP and creators kit fixes. Right? Then check first mod.

ModEnjoyer52 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Run them all through quick auto clean (QAC). The MO2 plugin I linked lets you check all the game plugins at once, opening them one after the other automatically to clean. Ye it's the same app but it has a variety of functions, DynDOLOD also is based on xEdit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scathtroy2147 Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 (edited) I used my download of nexus SSEedit. I download the MO script and ran it. 146 mods cleaned, took about 1 & 1/2 hours. First run through, it froze mid-game. Had to control-alt delete logout. I have my windows updates and nvidia drivers up to date. Quote Use TexGen to generate object LOD, tree LOD assets and then DynDOLOD to generate the LOD patch mod xLODgen first? Nexus download? Included in DynDOLOD? STEP #2: download resources, standalone, and additional requirements. Use the defaults? Thanks. Edited March 25 by scathtroy2147 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModEnjoyer52 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 (edited) Not sure about the freezing, unfortunate to hear. On the DynDOLOD manual there is a link to the XLODGen program, it is hosted on a forum post unlike the others: Quote xLODGen terrain LOD beta is the latest beta version where the current development and new features are tested before they are merged back into official xEdit and xLODGen releases. That program takes care of the terrain. One of the things it does is match custom landscape textures with the distant ones, so if you choose green for example but vanilla is yellow now the distance will be green. It also accounts for other changes to the landscape you might have made. It does other stuff like fix bugs, too. TexGen is run next which creates files that are used by DynDOLOD, like 'billboards' for trees low-res pictures that are suitable for distance details and uses your own textures. You should follow the https://dyndolod.info/Downloads page and get Resources, DLL (I use NG version), and the DynDOLOD 3 alpha (included in the download is TexGen). Make sure to put it in its own directory https://dyndolod.info/Installation-Instructions Best to use the manual for recommended detail settings. DynDOLOD has presets Low Medium High that you can use, even Low is a big improvement upon vanilla. Don't forget the command line arguments to make sure it is pointing to your plugins file, add it as a shortcut in MO2 so it loads alongside the virtual file system. Also there is a support forum you might be interested in https://dyndolod.info/Official-DynDOLOD-Support-Forum Edited March 26 by ModEnjoyer52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scathtroy2147 Posted March 27 Author Share Posted March 27 (edited) Thanks combining both together will take some time. XLODGen, TexGen, and DynDOLOD These are the three steps in sequence. I've been reading DynDOLOD docs. I've run xlodgen nexus mods on low settings. Edited March 27 by scathtroy2147 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wfandrews Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 (edited) Finally got SSELODGen to work. I could not use the M, P and D arguments that they tell you to use in the Step guide. I had to use the D, I and P arguments that you use to get GOG to work with SSEEdit. Those arguments I said did not work are for Dyn DoLod not for SSELODGen..
