Grass disappear after loading a save/Loading new Worldspace

[Shazuli]

Hi

I generated the grass cache without issues, but I don't see any grass rendering any further than what it does in vanilla. I changed Overwrite-grass-distance (60000) and Overwrite-grass-fade-range (30000) to 10x normal but grass still fades away like it does in vanilla, Use-grass-cache, Extend-grass-distance and Extend-grass-count are all true. The only thing that changes with the mod installed is when you place a quicksave and then load it all the grass in the whole world disappears. Only a complete restart of the game returns grass like it used to be.

Skyrim AE: 1.6.1170 NGIO-NG: 1.0.8

Can you please post your NGIO-NG.log, it should be under C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\SKSE\

Try the 1.0.9 and try setting Overwrite-grass-distance to 12000 and Overwrite-grass-fade-range to 6000. Distances too large will cause issues.

This is what it said last night. Updating to 1.0.9 it seems to be drawing grass further away and the new log also prints out the correct config change:

[11:29:54:349] ChosenGrassSettings: grid: 7, dist: 18000, range: 9000, iMinGrassSize: 35

It however still unloads all grass when loading a save (Quicksave, Autosave or New Save) or when loading a different interior (entering Whiterun or exiting Whiterun). A restart of the whole game is required to have it show up again.

Not sure if it'll help, but here's some of the mods I use that could possibly cause this.

Note that I re-cached the grass with 'seasonal grass' turned off to see if anything changed, which it did not so I doubt the seasons mods is a possible cause for this bug.

• Skoglendi - A Grass Mod

• SkyrimSE Re-Engaged ENB

• Seasons of Skyrim SKSE

• Turn of the Seasons

The issue only with the extend grass distance part of the mod. It is not the result of an conflict. I'm testing a few fixes, I'll update here when I find a fix.

[SaneEngineer]

Should be fixed with 1.0.11.
