Thank you for the hints; I am leaning towards an INI issue (replaced all them to test); especially with SKSE.INI memory size.  Testing now - thank you for the fast response.

About this part, what do you mean by "update your ENB."?

 

As for DAR - Go To Bed , do I need to rerun FNIS or Nemesis?

 

Btw, I have black terrain texture like this

Spoiler

My google-fu says it's VRAM problems but my GPU has 6gb VRAM.

You might want to check SKSE\Plugins\EngineFixes.toml too. Depending on your operating system setting MemoryManager = true could be a huge performance gain.

 

Another thing that could eat up your memory like pancakes: Followers. If you are at the lower end of the recommended system specs like yours truly running around with more than one follower takes huge bites out of your VRAM. ENB vramsizetest sets something around 12gb for my system and I can only have three to four followers in tow before it goes LoLnope.

1. 'Update your ENB' means 'get the newest version of ENB'. 

 

2. Usually not.

 

3. Thats why i recommend video cards with 8 GB. Try to see if there are versions of the texture mods that use less VRAM. Also reducing the resolutions for DynDOLOD might help.

 

 

@vlastilin02

You got quite a few mods in there that are not in the list. Maybe you should at first try to follow the list closely before adding/changing mods.

 

Also FNIS is either in the wrong spot or missing.

Hi @Aylis!

I've seen that Fair Skin Complexion is not needed anymore, because the teeth textures are being overwritten by the ones in Expressive Facegen Morphs mod.

And they get later readded with my patch. So i'd keep them just as a precaution (and the OA deserves the endorsement too).

@Aylis

Oh, I see. Thanks!

[wollboi]

@akadeadpool Do you have the newest version of Better Dynamic Snow? When I updated a while back I saw very similar issues.

[Aylis]

Looks the old savegame was broken even worse than i thougt. Dynamic Volumetric Lighting and Sun Shadows was causing a massive scriptlag before, but now with a new savegame it works flawlessly.

 

Added to the list and post #4808.

Dynamic Volumetric Lighting and Sun Shadows Done

DVLaSS Skyrim Underside Done

I'm also testing the original Billyy's SLAL Animations. If that works out (some say they got problems with the mod) it will replace the momentary conversion. 

I need to take it slow. Still down with a nasty virus atm (non cov). 

 

So far the mod is playing nice.

His Fnis is about halfway down. In notepad you can "find" under the edit tab. 

 

Your load order is way out of order. There are 3 creation club mods at the top as well. (you can make those manageable mods BTW, just takes some time. Go into the creation club and unsubscribe from them ({i would write them down so i can find them again} exit the game, clear out your overwrite. relaunch your game after CC removes those mods. go find 1 just 1 yes JUST 1. re-subscribe. Let CC do it's thing. exit. all of the CC files will now be in your overwrite. right click "create mod" name it whatever the mod name is in the CC. activate it. re-launch game. Unsubscribe from that mod and subscribe to the next one. repeat until you have your 3 mods and just unsubscribe from them all inside the creation club)

Right click the LEFT pane and disable all. Put them in order the EXACT way they are here DO NOT LET LOOT SORT FOR YOU!!!!! After you put this mod list in order you can start putting your other mods where they fit best (armor in the armor, weapons in weapons/effects, Sloot/Lovers Lab stuff in that category. Then click each little box one by one until they are all active (or the ones you want are active anyway) Also, do not get slick and try right clicking the left pane and activate all. it will not put them in order. after they are all active start on the right pane for plugins. drag all the esm mods up to the top( if you drag it a few slots and let go it should go up until if finds another esm then it will go just above it. drag it back just below that esm and hold shift and drag both esm mods up, it will keep jumping to the next esm. keep them in order as best you can. after you do all that. Re-run  DynDoLOD, make those, (Remember to turn off the 2 at the bottom) Then Wrye Bash and make your bashed patch.

Yes, I use BDS 3 but I don't use parallax so I don't think it's the problem. For now I'll try to rerun LOD again with lower setting.

You know that not a single one of the listed patches works with that version?

what do you think of this mod?https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/38061?tab=videos

[wollboi]

@akadeadpool What Aylis said. The guide is set up to work with BDS 2.11. Try dropping it back to that version, rerunning DynDOLOD, and see if it makes a difference.
