Hello, I'm just wondering which hardware currently available on the market has by far the fastest rendering and processing results in CK - world creation, world zooming/moving, etc. to reach very high FPS during work in the CK. Which CPU/GPU/RAM would be advisable here? Thank you in advance. Edited post: Turned out FPS is not so trustworthy, far more interesting is rendering (real-)time. I found RAM to be the culprit and GPU is not so important, with the following applied: - DDR4/5 32 GB+ - L3 Cache 20MB+ - NVME/SSD File/Preferences...: - .../Render Window: Grids to load 1, which must be done after each startup, since it cannot be configured via INI, at least it does not work on my end when modifying the INI. Top Bar: - disable "Toogle Light (A)" - disable "Toogle Lights (6)" Show/Hide: - Markers/Misc Markers - disable "Decals" - disable "Object Hidden From Local Map" Render Window: - push "T" to set default angle on top of object

So I've been ripping my hair out recently trying to figure out what could possibly be causing my errors but things simply don't make sense for me when it comes to using grass cache for using extended grass. I have watched video after video, looked at forum post after forum post with similar issues, and I have yet to find anything that works for me to clear up the two main issues I have. I can fix one or the other individually, but I can not find a setting that will allow me to fix both. The issues are as follows Issue 1: When using DynDOLODGrassMode = 2 My grass looks great at distance and close up with good transitions from LOD to full rendered... until I go to certain cells notably in the falkreath area and around Helgen areas where the grass simply does not render in any way shape or form. Bushes and such which aren't considered grass obviously show up, but no grass objects Issue 2: When using DynDOLODGrassMode = 1 My grass looks amazing close up no matter where I go it seems. Absolutely beautiful! But then when I look off to the distance, I see a ring of cells with no LOD or rendered grass in them, but with LOD grass off further than that ring showing up just fine Things to note: - Yes, I precached the grass under each of these modes and didn't accidentally swap numbers between the config file and the mode selected in DynDOLOD for corresponding grass caches rendered under each mode - I have actually done this more than once for each mode once using Step Project recommendations and once using references from this video which really the only difference is the distance and fade ranges - Am currently using the newest NGIO, precachy, and DynDOLOD files

SSE Nifskope rendering objects wierd
Pizzaman007 posted a topic in Skyrim's Creation Kit and Modders
Can anybody tell me why Nifskope is refusing to properly render the messes i want to edit? It is supposed to be a blades chestplate but for some reason its only rendering like shown in the screenshot. -
I've been trying to position an NPC in a cell using CK, but when I try to load the interior cell, it renders it like this. Also, my CK just doesn't render the full view of the NPC in question. The only thing it renders more or less successfully is the head. I haven't installed any graphics mods since the last time I ran CK, so I don't know myself what causes it. Any ideas why is my CK acting up like this?

Hello. I am using various mods to build my settlements. The biggest one of them is Snap 'n' Build, i make large settlements with it, big buildings and such. I noticed that that FPS in those settlements drop significantly because of this, or at least i think it is because of this, drop in my biggest one so far in tenpines bluff is really problematic. I figured that it must be because building pieces in snap n build mod don't have in build render occlusion that would block rendering behind them, so everything renders, entire building even side that is not visible and all things inside the building as well. Maybe it would be a good idea to make snapable planes or something like that which would prevent rendering on the other side of them, im not sure how feasible it is though. It would be great if it was possible to somehow "make" existing objects (like wall pieces from that mod i mentioned) to block rendering on their own, so game wouldn't render things on other side, but i don't know if that is possible without editing meshes or something, maybe it can be done with script or console command but i don't know TL;DR - placable in settlements custom planes preventing rendering objects on the other side to enhance FPS

Recently I got a new computer. I've played Skyrim plenty enough on my old computer with plenty of mods, and I tried to install all of the same mods on the new computer. For some reason that I can't pinpoint, Skyrim has issues loading objects and scripts while playing on the new computer, which never happened on my old computer. What most confuses me is that if I pause the game and un-pause again, it loads whatever's missing. Here's an example of what I mean: while running around in the overworld, I can come to a gap where a bridge should be. If I pause, the game will load the bridge. Similarly, I can run up to a bunch of bandits, and they will say their usual "you picked a bad time to get lost friend" dialogue, but not pull out their weapons until I pause and un-pause. Like I said, my mods are the same between computers, although the new computer lacks a few mods that were on the old one, so I don't think it's the cause of mods. Here are the specs of my new computer: GPU: GeForce 210. CPU: Intel Core i5-4460, 3.20GHz. Memory: 6.00 GB RAM. Operating System: Windows 8.1 Pro. I believe all of my drivers are up-to-date. However, Fallout 4 can't auto-detect my hardware, so it could certainly be a problem with my computer. I do have Skyrim's graphics set higher than on my old computer, so I believe that may have a part in it. Most of them are the settings that were set when it auto-detected my hardware. Here's what the settings are are currently set to: Antialiasing: 4 Samples. Anisotropic Filtering: Off. Windowed Mode: Unchecked. Show All Resolutions: Checked. Texture Quality: High. Radical Blur Quality: Low. Shadow Detail: Medium. Decal Quantity: Medium. FXAA: Checked. Water: All Unchecked. Object Fade: 2. Actor Fade: 3. Grass Fade: 0. Specularity Fade: 5. Light Fade: 10. Item Fade: 3. Distant Object Detail: Medium. Object Detail Fade: Checked. Sorry for the overflow of information, but I want to be as detailed with my problem as possible to avoid confusion. Any and all help will be appreciated.

Since recently I have a weird visual bug regarding companions in power armor: http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/452992600901402656/6E2A39562DB150E9F44C9D79C5F0A40F2E9237BF/ So far, it happened with Piper and Curie. It doesn't happen right away, but randomly after a while. It doesn't seem to have any other consequences than looking weird, also, making the companion exit and then re-enter the armor seems to fix this. At least for a while. Any ideas on what might be causing this? This hasn't happened before 1.6, but it doesn't have to be the patch's fault

Ok guys, so I have been modding for days and have gotten my game to the point where I am pretty happy. BUT, the one thing I cannot stand that is driving me crazy is the LODs for the snowy pine trees. Does there exist LODs for these trees that does not look like cardboard!? Please someone help me, I can't stand to look at them... you can see a vertical line down the center from the face 90 degrees to you, it's just aweful. I uninstalled vurt's flora overhaul to get rid of the pine tree retexture to see what would happen but to no avail. All my other LODs look acceptable and I use TES5LODGen. Any help would be greatly appreciated! http://i.imgur.com/giCr5pW.png http://i.imgur.com/RhVJWOl.png http://i.imgur.com/03Btd0H.png

I've been converting the Fallon's Department Store area into a usable settlement and have noticed that the area now has as issue where the game will not visibly load parts of the cell, even though they are right in front of me. This issue seems to be similar to the rendering issues that are caused if you disable the hedges in sanctuary, however, I have not removed anything from the cell at this time. Is anyone aware of a way to fix the rendering issues through ini modifications, CK, or other means? I am certain this is not a computer specs issue, as I can run the same cell with the mod disabled and not have this issue, and with the mod disabled there is no difference in fps. Also, this issue seems to be isolated to the area shown in the screenshots. screenshots below http://imgur.com/a/gBkZA

Anyone willing to create a mod that reduces the rendering distance?When I move camera at the ground and objects near my character i have a stable fps. But when i move camera at distant objects, fps drops are huge, its unplayable. I think there is a lot of us with older PCs, mod would be appreciated.

Hello fellow modder, I recently discovered JK Skyrim (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/61035/?) and the lite version of the same mod (www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/71018/?). So basically, this mod add tons of elements in cities (from different items to meshes and flora), just like Dawn of Skyrim (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/58275/?) which I had previously. JK Skyrim is much more performance heavy than DoS, and DoS is already quite the FPS killer. And I noticed something with all those mods : when you're entering a city, Whiterun for example, you have all the city ahead of you and in that case, the FPS is crap. That's the worst case scenario though, you "look" at every single object added by the mods even if you don't actually see them. But this impact on performance varies a lot depending on the position in the city and line of sight. And that's quite frustrating, it's like everything is fully rendered in the city even if you don't directly see the items. Hence my question : does anybody know a way to reduce the performance impact of the objects and meshes you cannot see ? I really doubt it would be possible but it's worth a shot. I love those mods, but I'm going from constant 60 FPS outside the cities to 30-60 FPS inside cities, depending on my line of sight. Thanks ! Other performance hungry mods installed : RealVision ENB set to medium, a lot of 2K textures, Skyrim Flora Overhaul, Unique Grasses, ELFX, SBT, Realistic Water Two. Rig : i5 3570K @4.5GHz, G1 Gaming GTX 980Ti @1400MHz, 16Go RAM, 1440p 60Hz.

IM SORRY! I PRESSED ENTER WHILE WRITING THE TITLE AND NOW I CANT CHANGE IT.. Hello, to anybody who can help me. Yesterday I had written a post for this exact set of issues, only to have it erased when i pressed backspace under the assumption that it would erase my words. Turns out, backspace sometimes takes you back to the previous page?? cool. Hence the reason why this post will be significantly shorter and less detailed than I would hope. But bear with me! The idea behind this post is that you may skim over the contents and help me if you find one that you know how to fix! #1) Basically, while outdoors, my (rather heavily modded) skyrim will basically freeze up and hold for times ranging from 5 seconds to even one minute. It just sits there! It makes combat extremely difficult and exploring very tedious. Also, while the freezing is occurring (between freezes of course), looting anything will usually cause the game to CTD. #2) While travelling, I will reach an area that has basically failed to render. You will essentially be playing the game on terrain as it should be seen from miles away, though you are standing on it. Let me explain it like this. Imagine going into a city cell, such as whiterun, and using the TCL command to fly through the walls and to the outdoors area where everything is a sharp mesh with blurred textures and no objects. That's how my game will be when this issue happens! I ran up to Robbers Gorge once, for example, and the world was not really loaded in. I had no clue i was even at the Gorge, because none of the rocks, trees, grass mounds, plants, or bandit structures loaded in. I had to quick-save and then immediately load the quick-save for the world around me to load in properly! My game will load in the terrain around me when i spawn in, and then it seems like it just stops loading from there. Very, VERY annoying issue. and sometimes, in areas that are only half-rendered because of this issue, the games 'motor' basically halts on the spot. Lets use this example to show what I'm talking about: I was walking around morthal (a problem-area on my pc for whatever reason) and my followers started shooting arrows in the woods. I ran up to kill whatever was up there and my followers drew swords and came with me. I Noticed here that all of my followers had invisible swords. Strange issue, i though, but nothing major. Got to the enemy, it being a spider, and started blasting off arrows at it. I shot at least 5 arrows, but not one of them actually shot from my bow and stuck in the spider, despite my aim being on point at the distance of 1m. The spider then incapacitated me into bleed out phase (mods). I watched it as it murdered my followers, wondering why it wasnt taking damage. Then, in a sudden burst of loading, all arrows hit, the spider died, and all of the sounds that shouldve played that failed to play since the rendering started to fail all came in, in one big bundle of noise. To make it more clear, the issue here isnt about the spider or the combat! Its the issue in which my attacks and interactions stop working, my sound stops playing ,and things stop rendering. Any help is appreciated, thanks so much guys :smile:

Geck Crashing upon Rendering
SpikeWolfwood posted a topic in Fallout New Vegas's Mod Troubleshooting
Hey everyone, before I state my problem, please understand that I am not an idiot with no experience in using common sense. . . I HAVE "googled" my inquiries, I have done research ( although it is has been a minimal search compared to others) in an attempt to help me with solving this issue... Issue: plain and simple, I'll run geck.exe either as administrator or not ( I still get the same appcrash), I will then proceed to file > data..> I select / double click falloutNV.esm so that it is the only file being loaded. I then proceed to the worldspace dropbox where I can select: 'Interiors' then I double click OR right click and select view on the cell titled: " neon sign factory" . . . this is when I get this crash : Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: Geck.exe Application Version: 1.4.0.518 Application Timestamp: 4e0415d8 Fault Module Name: Geck.exe Fault Module Version: 1.4.0.518 Fault Module Timestamp: 4e0415d8 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 00500669 OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.48 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 0a9e Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 Additional Information 3: 0a9e Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789 what am I doing wrong?

Good afternoon, I am working on my first mod, with quite a lot of success so far. I am certain there is quite a bit I do not know yet, but for the most part I grab on to and or figure it out pretty quickly. One thing has eluded me thus far though. I noticed there is a...something that will shade the texture painted on the ground. This is mostly seen around the edges of paths, or under rocks and trees. No matter what you paint these particular spots, the shaded square always makes the new render darker. I have searched everywhere for this particular tool, to no avail. Is this something in the construction set that I am missing. I noticed the few mods I have with "New lands" do not utilize the shading process I see in Morrowind. Otherwise, I think I am doing really well, and believe when this is finally finished, I will be very pleased with it. Ahead of time, thank you for any assistance, and my apologies if this is the incorrect place to post this question.

Hey guys, I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I've been playing around with the GECK for a while and I've finally decided to try create a quest mod with custom maps. I'm fine with just about everything else in the GECK, except I'm having problems with the draw distance. In custom maps the draw distance is very small, while in the maps from the vanilla game I can see for large distances and I can't figure out how to do this myself. Here are images to demonstrate my problem: This first image is me in my custom map, situated on one side of a river: http://i.imgur.com/U8pqoRA.jpg Note that the opposite bank from where I am standing features a few large scattered rocks. Nothing impressive, right? This second image is me stepping a few metres forward: http://i.imgur.com/2LjRU87.png This reveals that those "rocks" were in fact a steep cliff face. Also note that the far right of the cliffs is missing even from this distance. I have maxed out all the draw distances and fades in-game and this still doesn't help, and I have noticed that maps made by Obsidian do not have this problem. This has led me to conclude that it is something that I must set in the GECK by myself, but I cannot figure out how to do it and it's seriously affecting my ability to make custom maps. Thanks for reading - if you can help me out I will be very grateful! :D

Hello, If I disable ambient occlusion and deffered rendering in a ENB, should I still put 'bFloatPointRenderTarget' on 1? Or should I leave it off? Thanks in advance, Raiser

So below are 2 pictures the first is me roughly 5-10ft back and the next is me moved up. As you can see i hope my game renders shadows horridly short Is this a skyrim ini edit fix? or a mod? Anything would help. http://i.imgur.com/hnCUBh5.jpg picture 1 odd textured shadows http://i.imgur.com/AXpEy3x.jpgpicture 2 better shadows 5ft closer

So for a while now I've been encountering a lot of instability with Fallout New Vegas. Mostly crashes related to fast travel, and also how the game would love me into a vastly empty (like half loaded) version of the location I wanted to fast travel to and then crashing almost immediately if I pause the game. In addition to these crashes I've also encountered weird instances where the audio just stopped working entirely and having to exit the game to bring it back. Also, I've occasionally had the New Vegas main menu load up without any UI whatsoever. I have also tested this with new save files and have gotten the same results. Currently I have the following mods installed Unlimited Companions 101Play After Main QuestUnlimited LevelingNVACJIP LN NVSE PluginNVTF In addition, I have the 4gb patcher and NVSE installed. I used to have more mods but I got rid of them. So any idea on what's happening? Any idea on how I could possibly solve this or find a solution?

I have had this weird bug happening quite regularly now. If I fast travel too far, the buildings will just cease to exist, leaving me no choice but to save and reload the save file. The textures seem to work fine then, but it can be very immersion-breaking. This is especially the case concerning cut-scenes with travelling. For example, when playing as Ciri for the first time, when defeating the werewolf and cutting back to Crow's Perch, the whole of Crow's Perch turns invisible. With it being a lengthy cut-scene, it is really frustrating to watch the whole conversation pan out in thin air. Has anyone had similar experiences before? I'm using HD Reworks Project, IncreasedDrawDistance, and Nitpickers Patch, along with FastTravelFromAnywhere. There might be someething related to HD Reworks, but as of now, even uninstalling the mod does not seem to help. Below I've attached a compressed video file showing the issue, And what I do for the bug to appear. Note that the bug still happens if cutscenes and missions take you longer distances, like the instance with Ciri. Edit: The video bugged out, of course.

Asking modders what setting has any bearing on the distance at which the Detect Life spell's effect (or shader or whatever the technical term is) takes effect. Even if I cast a version with 120ft range I only start seeing it around 20-30 feet, so barely more than what's around the next corner and it's the same outside. I LOVE this spell. I loved it since I first played Oblivion (it was my first Bethesda game and my first open-world RPG), way back when. Detect Life is one of my favorite spells and, as I "rediscovered" it in the remastered, I also happen to like the default effect. Problem is it is "rendered" almost completely useless/ineffective, because it just doesn't render over a certain distance. All of my settings are set low, because of hardware reasons. I have both a pak file (from VynnGfx's Optimized Tweaks OBLR) and a modified ini (from TheHybred's Optimizations). I know they warn against running both kinds of alterations at the same time, but it doesn't seem to cause any problems (unless my Detect Life not rendering properly IS such a problem). I honestly can't even tell if either one of them gave me much of a performance boost (but adding some additional lines to the ini from dr3dre's Force Enable FSR3 Frame Generation definitely doubled my FPS both in and outside). Anyway... What could be the culprit, here? Cell loading? The modifications conflicting? Some line and a number in the ini set too low? Bethesda? The government? Aliens? What?

Screenshot of the fuzzy problem: Video of the dissapearing 3D grass problem: https://youtu.be/uKv9Z3hb4oE I have been DAYS litterally, trying to resolve this mystery and I need help. Google did not do me any good UP TO NOW, still searching whilke posting this here. Mods included in screenshot: Skyrim 3D Landscapes (with groundcovers optional file) Tamrielic Textures SE 1 - Landscapes Northern Shores SE Folkvangr - Grass and Landscape Overhaul Blended Roads Origins of Forest - 3D Forest Grass Simply Bigger Trees I have been working and reworking in Vortex for hours and days. Removing and replacing mods. I encounter this fuzzy shore issue AND when I load the game, I get my gorgeous 3D grass rendered properly BUT only for a certain distance, after which, the grass simply never renders and I am stuck with flat lands of emptiness. If I save, quit and re-open the game, the 3D grass renders on load until I move to the next section where the problem happens again. Can anyone help me with this? It's starting to drive me crazy... Here is my ini file contents for those that may need them: Skyrim.ini SkyrimPrefs.ini enbseries.ini

** moved from Mod troubleshooting ** Could somebody please tell me what I've done to cause this graphics issue I'm having? Hopefully somebody else has seen this. All trees but those I'm about 200 or so feet from are rendering with half the graphics missing. It's as if the trees are right on the borderline of a clipping plane, with some of the graphics being removed by an invisible barrier that removes their rendering. The trunks are gone and in some cases only one layer of the branches are showing, with an ugly invisible 'box' cut-off surrounding each tree. Take a look at the screenshot and you'll see what I mean. I'm using Real Vision ENB Cinema preset and haven't fudged with any of those settings, and AOF HD Trees LOD 4k, but even with the tree mod disabled I still get this graphic effect. All other mods have nothing to do with trees and the ENB has been disabled to test - still the same graphics glitch abounds. I have all rendering distances maxed in my in-game settings, in fact everything is maxed except for the AA setting (screws with the ENB). I get about 40-60 fps with intense graphics so my system's no slouch, I just can't figure where along the line this started happening. Any ideas?

This is my first post, as I usually try to figure out problems on my own. However, I seem to be the only one having this problem with the Creation Kit. I can't drag a mesh from the object window into the render window. Occasionally the object will show in the render window, but 95% of the time nothing shows. Sometimes I can load a different faraway cell and come back and it will show the object, but that only works part of the time. Also sometimes the cell window will show the meshes listed in the cell, and I double click on it, but all it does is center in on nothing in the render window. I've also tried hitting F5, and that never works. I find this very frustrating, as this seems like a very basic function of the editor and integral to doing any sort of serious modding in Skyrim. I'm not a super modder by any stretch of the imagination, but I have been doing some light modding since Morrowind and I have never been so frustrated by the current creation kit. Things that should just work don't. I could list probably a half dozen other issues that the Creation Kit fails to do, but this is the most pressing issue right now. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hello all My latest fallout new vegas playthrough has developed an annoying problem. Some times when im wandering around as you do buildings and sometimes terrain dont render fully when getting close to them. In other words these unrendered objects look like they would from a far distance when close to them which isnt right at all . I have tweaked the ini for greater Rendering, tweaked the application on the Nvidia control panel and have the LOD noise texture mod for better rendering but the failing render appears to be simply fallout failing to load these textures ON OCCASION as reloading near the unrendered object will render them correctly but FNV has never done this before, any suggestions?
