Nothing to worry about; as you discovered, it's from the Tamriel Heightmaps ESPs, and is caused by Onra setting the scale to 0 on a large number of trees. I can't quite remember why he had to do this, but he had a very good reason.

I just run into the same while I was testing the new Heightmaps by onra.
Even though this is old news, I'm glad I could find this through Google. The forum's new search awful.

Thanks for the explanation.

Hey guys. I'm having a bit of trouble getting this to run. I run it, and get this:

So, yeah... it can't find oblivion.esm. I'm pretty sure that's a problem. I'm going to test if Oblivion itself is working, but I'm pretty sure it is, since I just played it yesterday. I'm also a bit confused as to why it's reading my load order from the bottom up. Anyone have any ideas why I'm having so many problems?

Hello,

I recently moved my Oblivion install to another drive. From C:/ to H:/ , everything seems to have worked fine so far. I'm not if this is the reason for the error or not. I still have my Oblivion folder in C:/ as well, so I doubt that could be the reason.

When I run TES4LODGEN I get this error:

"[00:06] Loader: Fatal: The system cannot find the file specified>
[00:06] Loader: finished"

How can I fix this?

EDIT: Fixed. Delved into the registry settings and changed all the default paths from drive C to H and it now works fine!

Ignore it. You're using Tamriel Heightmaps, which does things to trees which the creator of TES4LODGen never anticipated. Everything is working as intended (including Tamriel Heightmaps).

I have a problem when I want to use the Plugins.tes4lodgensettings file.

I saved it using notepad so it is a .txt file.

Anyway, I wrote this in the notepad:

[Default]
Rule=Skip

[Worldspace]
PGIsland01=Replace
PGEnemyBase04=Replace

Yet, when the program starts, loads the esm, esp and so on, there is a line of text that says "Replacing Tamriel" and this is when I quit the program. I even tried adding a specific line that says Tamriel=Skip but it still shows Replacing Tamriel.

Did I forget to add something in the .txt?

Thanks in advance.

You just disabled the file. By changing Plugins.tes4lodgensettings to Plugins.tes4lodgensettings.txt it is no longer a .tes4lodgensettings file, which is required for the program to detect and use it. Remove the .txt extension and it will work again.

I never placed a .txt extension. I just saved it using notepad (which I assume saves files with a .txt extension). The name of the file is Plugins.tes4lodgensettings. No .txt at the end.

And another thing, does this mod create meshes, textures and DistantLOD? Because when I ran it it just created the DistantLOD.

This utility only generates the files in the DistantLOD folder. It does so by using any existing _far.nif files it can find in your BSAs and Data folder.

It does not do anything at all with landscape LOD.

TES4LODGen recreates the contents of the DistantLOD folder, nothing more, nothing less.

Does the Plugins.tes4lodgensettings icon look like a Notepad icon or an unknown file icon? If it looks like a Notepad icon, I would suggest that Windows/Notepad has changed it to a .txt file - and if you cannot see .txt on the filename then you might have "Hide extensions for known file types" enabled (it is enabled by default in Windows). If it's a .txt file, then TES4LODGen will not be able to use it, but TES4LODGen should create a new file to replace it, in which case you'd see a second version there, unedited.

You have entered the right data into the file for it to work, so there is no reason for TES4LODGen to ignore the file if it is correctly named.

I shouldn't butt in on this as I've never used the plugins.tes4lodgensettings file, but I thought about two things:

1. Do you have it placed in the correct directory? Typically: C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Local Settings\Application Data\Oblivion, where the plugins.txt is.
2. Do you have http://www.fileinfo.com/help/windows-show-extensions.html on? If so, you won't see the possible .txt extension.

EDIT: Ninjaed.

Hi everyone

This is probably a simple fix but Im still having trouble-

I want to run TES4 LODgen, but it cannot find the Oblivion installation path- Wrye Bash and OBMM work fine, and so does Oblivion itself. Where do I go to check it? My path is C:\Oblivion

I have tried running TES4Lodgen from the Oblivion file, and still get the Fatal: Could not determine Oblivion installation path error.

Anyway Id appreciate any help- Thanks!

That's what I'm wondering too. The description leads me to believe that upgrading may not be a good idea yet.

There are 2 major changes:
  • TES4LODGen used to be a stand alone program; I've now merged it into the TES4Edit source. TES4LODGen is the exact same program as TES4Edit (and FO3Edit, and FO3MasterUpdate, and FNVEdit) and only changes into a special mode by recognizing the file name.
  • The TES4Edit source itself has moved forward a lot since the last official TES4Edit released (because of all the work on FNVEdit)


This version of TES4LODGen should work and should produce the same output as the 2.x version. But I do not have an appropriate Oblivion installation to fully test that. So I'm depending on user feedback here.

If there are any problems you can always just go back to the 2.x version and run that again.

Ok, so is there really only one executable with command line parameters for the different modes? Can you post the setup somewhere for those that just wish to run the executable with the different params for the different modes?

I've been using TES4Edit 3.x for a while now and though still marked "experimental" it certainly hasn't broken anything yet.

Is it safe to assume that whatever the final enable/disable state of an item is according to the Rule of One is going to be considered before the program generates the VWD data?

Ok, so is there really only one executable with command line parameters for the different modes? Can you post the setup somewhere for those that just wish to run the executable with the different params for the different modes?
Yes there is and you already have it.

You can literally just rename TES4LODGen.exe to TES4Edit.exe and run it and it will be TES4Edit. Or rename it to FO3Edit.exe and run it and it will be FO3Edit. It looks at it's own file name and behaves accordingly.

Is it safe to assume that whatever the final enable/disable state of an item is according to the Rule of One is going to be considered before the program generates the VWD data?
There should be no difference in behaviour in this regard from TES4LODGen 2.x

Obviously, any object that is being enabled/disabled during the game is a huge problem because .lod files are static and do not retain any link to the FormID of the REFR that defined the object.

Ok. I was wondering if there was a single filename and command line parameters to put the program in its different modes. Sort of like obse_loader and using -editor to call the CS instead. Then it'd be just one program for me to replace with several shortcuts for the different functions. No big deal, obviously, and I'd imagine there'd be just as many people who prefer it the way it is :)
