FNVLODGen error - Code 2 - What does it mean and what should I do to fix it?
Last few lines of the log:

It looks like it's having trouble with WMX, but idk why since it's a lod tool. I also don't have WMX, but I used to. I uninstalled it and removed the archive.

If anyone can help me, please use simple baby terms because I'm not smart.

How did you remove WMX? If xLODGen is detecting it, that means the esp is still enabled and installed.

Please tell me you are using a mod manager.

I am using a mod manager (vortex), and I removed WMX by selecting remove and delete archive.

I'm mainly confused on why it needs it in the first place.

Well whatever you did, you didn't actually remove the mod since the esp is still there.

xLODGen reads all the esps to make sure it has all the data it needs to generate LOD. While it may not actually need WMX, it's a definite indication that something is broken.

If it allows you to ignore that error, you should still be able to generate LOD without any actual problems, but you will have errors in your game if you have deleted the WMX files but have the mod enabled.
