📋 About This Mod
Overgrown World comes from my Their World mod.
It is for people that wanted just the foliage, without the weather and water changes. For now it's the same vegetation as in Their World, but might do a couple of different color schemes in the future. INSTALL: Extract to data folder, enable esp.
Overgrown World - Performance ESP This is a less stressful version for lower end machines. Lower quality will manifest in closer detail draw distance for trees (far away trees will show "pop" effect) and some grass has been removed.
If you will use this version please give INFO on performance against the original file and your overall thoughts on quality to performance ratio. Thanks
ADDITIONAL: 1. To get the best intended look, go to FALLOUT.ini and change uGridsToLoad=5 to uGridsToLoad=7. (usually FALLOUT.ini is in my documents/fallout3/ folder)
2. If you get texture issues check that you changed bInvalidateOlderFiles=0 to bInvalidateOlderFiles=1 in FALLOUT.ini. (usually FALLOUT.ini is in my documents/fallout3/ folder)
3. If you don't know what 1 and 2 are, google it to understand what you are doing.
4. This was tested on basic i3 with 4gb ram and 7870LE. Settings=Ultra with vsync off.
