Weird Terrain/LOD issues

Post by r3wcifer » Thu Sep 10, 2015 3:33 pm

Alright, first time post, long time lurker, so thanks for making this mod possible, and for being such an awesome community.



I am having some weird terrain pop in, like nothing in the distance is visible until I'm practically right in front of it (see screenshot), all the settings in my .ini's are set to where they should be, and I've tried going back to the defaults. It seems almost like "​ugirdstoload" is set to .5 or something, which it isn't. I have some sneaking suspicions that its because of some conflict in Vurts WFO TTW Edition or DC Taller Skyscrapers, but I've tried uninstalling/disabling both, which made no difference whatsoever, I've also tried disabling all plugins, also no difference, so whatever it is, its overiding the default LOD settings or something, I have no clue at this point.



I'd appreciate any help or advice, I also messed with FNVLODGEN but couldn't tell if it was making any difference outside of the actual New Vegas files.

What is your install log?

Post by TrickyVein » Thu Sep 10, 2015 3:41 pm

What is your install log?


You are missing LOD settings for the Capital Wasteland.


Either 1) they are missing from the fallout3 - misc.bsa, or 2) they're not being read from within the .bsa, for some reason.


If the former, something went wrong with installation and you might need to build the .bsa(s) again. If the latter, try extracting wasteland.dlodsettings from the .bsa to Fallout New Vegas/data/LODSettings. You could also extract them from Fallout 3's original .bsa, but people will be more curious as to why TTW may not have installed correctly.

Wow... jeez, I totally

Post by r3wcifer » Thu Sep 10, 2015 3:57 pm

Wow... jeez, I totally overlooked the obvious, just noticed a "LODSettings" folder sitting in my Data folder. Took it out and bingo, problem solved. And I've been sitting here for 3 hours looking the wrong area...



Thank you so much! You are awesome, never forget that.

So the issue was something

Post by TrickyVein » Thu Sep 10, 2015 4:20 pm

So the issue was something dropped new dlod settings which overwrote the ones you had?


What did that?

Yup, thats exactly what it

Post by r3wcifer » Thu Sep 10, 2015 4:41 pm

Yup, thats exactly what it was, I've never messed with DLOD setting files, I know that TTW edition of "DC Taller Skyscrapers" comes with a LODSettings folder, I'm going to extract a fresh version of the folder from the .rar and see what happens when I load it up.



Update:

It works fine now with the fresh files, played for a while but ended with a CTD, there still isn't anything out there that forces NewVegas to dump a crash log is there?
