FNVLODGen is not compatible with texture packs by default. Texture packs must include updated LOD textures to work properly with FNVLODGen to generate visually matching LODs. If authors are not around to create them, anyone good with Photoshop/GIMP of other editors can do that.
Check in NifScope what textures are used in _lod.nif meshes and update them to match new textures if needed. Keep in mind that normal maps must always have the same file name as diffuse with _n.dds suffix for FNVLODGen.
Trees LOD Billboards Vanilla v1.1 Update
- better looking bushes
Removes a lot of vanilla LOD limitations. Warnings about vertex or atlas overlflow can be ignored if installed.
< WARNING: LOD level 4 coord [-8, -12] textures not on atlas, some LOD will be missing in game! >
for the rest of worldspaces LODs generate fine.
As a result of this: when I stand at Trading Post 188 and look where Helios One should be, I can only see solar panels, but not the tower or the building. This gets even weirder since I can see Novac's Dinosaur...
Help please!
Reading in general helps a lot.
Vanilla LOD models are usually enough to generally update LODs according to load order.
I will try having only FNVLODGen no other recommended LOD mods
The list of recommended LOD mods improve visuals, of course at the cost of performance. Nothing is free. You have to balance performance of your game on your PC yourself.
Regenerating LODs without any 3rd party LOD mods provides vanilla performance more or less.
Also, do I need to select more than the MojaveWasteland in the left hand side? Like for freeside, etc.
Decision on worldspaces (where you want to see updated LODs) depends on you only, where you spend the majority of your time in game to care for the better LOD.
any idea what i did wrong
i tried going over the process again and no change
ill list all mods im using here
FNVLODgen Resources
LODadditions
Much needed LOD
LOD FIxes and Improvements - NVSE
Wastland Flora Overhaul (i did follow instructions from that author as well and made sure to reinstall over all the other mods)
I ran FNVLODGen after that
any help would be much appreciated
keyword of EPIC can point here)
Issue was : "Fatal: Could not find ini" while running fnvlodgen, and before it was something about registry
missing (program suggests starting the launcher for STEAM version).
Problem was the program didn't know where the DATA folder was, and where the
"Fallout.ini" was. You fix this by editing the arguments section in
modmanager2
Used this : (likely unneeded, but it helped me find out what file i actually needed to link, and I think this corrected
the .exe location that was missing) :
Fallout New Vegas Registry Fix 32_64 Bit
Helpful links:
Used this : https://vivanewvegas.moddinglinked.com/lod.html
this : https://dyndolod.info/Help/xLODGen
this : https://tes5edit.github.io/docs/2-overview.html#CommandLineSwitches
And then manually i typed this in modmanager2 > executables > xLODGen > Arguments
it already had the argument of :
(my stuff was installed on I: partition instead so change your locations accordingly)
-FNV -O:"I:\lods\lods"
and then I added 1 extra argument (since the above "Fallout New Vegas Registry Fix 32_64 Bit" likely fixed the game "DATA" location, the only missing was "Fallout.ini") ,for the location of "Fallout.ini"
-I:"C:\Users\User\Documents\My Games\FalloutNV_Epic\Fallout.ini"
So the full arguments line looked like this (again edit locations yourself) :
-FNV -O:"I:\lods\lods" -I:"C:\Users\User\Documents\My Games\FalloutNV_Epic\Fallout.ini"
Wouldnt be surprised if the "Fallout New Vegas Registry Fix 32_64 Bit" step wasskippable and you could add this for the .exe location :
-D:"I:\Games\FalloutNewVegas\Fallout New Vegas English\Data"
for a full argument line of this :
-FNV -O:"I:\lods\lods" -I:"C:\Users\User\Documents\My Games\FalloutNV_Epic\Fallout.ini" -D:"I:\Games\FalloutNewVegas\Fallout New Vegas English\Data"
I'm sure someone can make a clearer shorter more concise version :)
Anyway it all works, thanks Zilav and Team, (but maybe there could be a line of text in the description or something that said how to troubleshoot if the program can't find the locations, would've helped my dumb brain atleast :D )
