FNVLODGen

I've got a problem. When I install the F3 and NV (with trees) resources  into Mod Organizer my title screen looks like this:

^^Thats my cursor, a mini TTW logo, I think. What am I doing wrong? Even deleting the 2 resources doesn't make it go away...

EDIT: Ok, fixed it seems...still testing *baffled*

EDIT2: Ok, ready to give up on this madness. The only way I can solve duplicate trees in CW is by installing the FO3 resources zip into MO. THAT,  at least, rids me of duplicate trees, even if it does put a hell of a lot of individual files into the game folders. If anyone can tell me which files are only required in this package to solve duplicate trees then I can trim this package down. Any attempt to generate LOD gives me 3 trees on one spot, as well as extra unwanted trees in the CW.

Its obviously not the correct way to do this, but it rids me of the basic tree glitch. I'm ready to listen to any forthcoming advice, but for now, I'm sticking to just installing FO3resources.

Anything that have "tree" in the file or folder name. But honestly you need the full package anyway because it not only adds new meshes ad textures, but also fixes the existing ones.

I also don't understand the problem with the package size, why does it matter when you have a mod manager to manage all files automatically, be it MO or WB. You can install and remove mods with a single mouse click in both retaining the proper original files if they were overwritten.

Problem with package size is the possibility of the game running slower with more [non-esp/esm] files in the folders. I don't know if that actually does happen with NV, but with other games it does.

Nevertheless, the non-esp method I am using does rid the game of duplicate trees, which was my original goal. So if theres no downside to this method, then I am happy. Thanks.

Can I disable TTWLodGen.esp after creating the LOD or do I have to use it for correct LOD?

It needs to remain in your load order.

hmm strange. When i use the script and run fnv lod gen with fo3 forested flora billboards and flora overhaul and fnv dead flora overhaul both with resources, i get this area right outside goodsprings with this LOD and only this area, when i approach this area it crashes my game.hmm....

Try to update to the latest version on nexus 3.1.2a and regenerate.

Thanks zilav, everything looks excellent, looks like i have lots of green trees in the mojave despite using ttw vfo and picking dead addition, but upon lod generation with forested billboards for fo3 i have just a few trees near goodsprings, not many, but just a big bunch of them. 

All LOD looks great for both watstelands, i have yet to see zion but will take screenshots :p

I made VFO billboards with FO3 in mind only and tested there. I know that TTW has changes to trees used in FO3 worldspace, so maybe they affect something.

Frankly speaking my billboards suck and look awful because I just grabbed screenshots from NifScope and put them in game. I still wish someone good with Photoshop/GIMP will create much better looking versions, maybe even Vurt himself. However he said that he hates making LODs, so not much hope here.

I've been talking with Tomzik (author of that new LOD mod that just came out).  I showed him how to remove the flicker during LOD transition, and he said he tree LOD meshes are on his to-do list.
