DynDOLOD Fresh install - crash on first load

[WDeranged]

I've been trying to install DynDOLOD on a lightly modded install of Skyrim SE and I'm having an issue where most of the time my first load drops to the desktop cold with no message.

 

I've watched all the well known installation guides and done a fair bit of reading so I think I've got the basics down but I'll list my basic steps.

 

Install resources.

Install Indistinguishable Vanilla Tree Billboards.

Run texgen and install textures.

Run DynDOLOD and install output.

 

Whether starting a new game or a clean save four out of five times the game will drop to the desktop with no message.  When it does appear to work everything initialises properly and DynDOLOD works as it should.  I'm just rather wary of continuing to play the game after on an unstable foundation.

If you are using PapyrusUtil, edit skse\plugins\StorageUtilData\DynDOLOD_Tamriel_Objects.json in notep and edit the line near the bottom of the file that starts with "reset":, change the "reset" to "xreset" so it will be ignored.

 

If you are using DynDOLOD DLL, edit skse\plugins\DynDOLOD_Data\DynDOLOD_Tamriel_Objects.txt and just remove the entire last line 1=...

 

See if that makes any difference with all scripts installed again.

 

You might also test if using DynDOLOD DLL instead of Payrusutil or vice versa makes any difference. They use slightly different scripts.

I made the change but the crash still happens.  I did try the DynDOLOD DLL method with no luck 

[sheson]

Can you post the papyrus log of the crash.

Skyrim.INI with bEnableLogging=1, bEnableTrace=1, bLoadDebugInformation=1

 

Please zip and upload the current plugins and the SKSE folder you have now for me to test and check if I can spot anything.

Got thx. When you doing your tests are you using a save? Can you send me that one and the steps - if any - required to cause the CTD. 

 

Can you make the game CTD by using "coc whiterun" from main menu console and do something specific?

 

Can you also upload/post

..\SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\skyrim\PapyrusUtilDev.log

c:\Users\[username]\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\SKSE\skse64_loader.log

c:\Users\[username]\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\SKSE\DynDOLOD.log

Starting a new game or using the save file (Riverwood Trader internal cell) I've linked almost always results in a crash.  So far I haven't managed to trigger a crash by coc'ing to whiterun from the main menu.

Not getting a DynDOLOD.log in the SKSE log folder for some reason.

The c:\Users\[username]\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\SKSE\DynDOLOD.log will only show when you use DynDOLOD DLL. It probably got delete in the meantime. Don't worry about it.

 

I will see if I can replicate it with the save.

[sheson]

With all the files you provided I was able to finally recreate the condition loading your save. Seems the papyrus engine is overwhelmed by lots of script activity across all plugins

 

Please test these updated DynDOLOD PapryusUtil scripts, overwrite the ones from DynDOLOD Resources SE.

 

Let me know if they fix the issue for you as well.

 

Edit: These scripts are now in DynDOLOD Resources SE 2.54

Looks promising.  I just did 20 minutes of intense testing and couldn't trigger any crashes!  I'm curious as to why I saw the same crashes with a completely vanilla install.  Even my modded install is sparse compared to some of the monster loadouts I've seen other people use.

Sounds good. Once it loaded it should be fine. Must be some kind of edge case. I could not trigger anything similar without that save on my end.

Still having no issues.  Thanks Sheson.  My firstborn is all yours.

Thanks for letting me know and for the time and help troubleshoot this one. The update to the scripts will be in the next version of DynDOLOD Resources. It is already included in the latest DynDOLOD DLL.
