📋 About This Mod
Between mod collections and recent one-sided socio-political pressures, I find Nexus Mods is becoming a bit too much like George Orwell's 1984 for my liking. And rather than discuss problems and solutions, their moderators and owners choose to preemptively block certain discussions. You are only welcome here if you agree with them. And if you disagree they suggest you delete your account.
In my opinion, that is a weak, childish, anti-inclusive, anti-diversity, phobic and disrespectful response. And honestly, it fits the pattern of abusing privilege and power to silence dissent and exclude certain communities.
In spite of those facts, I'm rejecting their suggestion and choosing a better option.
Instead of deleting my account, and with it all my mods, I will leave what I have created for my friends, and the community, to enjoy. But I will not be back to support, update or add any content.
I am sure this decision will come as a surprise to some, and possibly raise some questions that I would encourage you to ask me if you seek to understand. But even if you don't, you may rest assured that I have valid, rational and well thought out reasons for coming to this decision.
Best wishes to all of you, and happy gaming.
Do you love grass & green mods, but hate when grass grows through your floor? Are you tired of that NPC who 'sweeps' all day but never cleans up? Me too! So I'm doing something about it.

I leave each cell edit separate to allow players to decide if they want to mod a particular cell, or skip it. This gives you flexibility and will help avoid conflicts with other mods that edit the same or nearby cells.
Should work with any grass/green mod you choose that adheres to the 'no grass' terrain texture spec.
If you are using a mod that adds grass even where 'no grass' is specified:
My fixes will only be partially effective. Get Flecked's grass mod patches that correct mesh/texture compliance to the 'no grass' spec in the terrain editor:

💡 Beginner Tips
- Check the mod's file structure to see which cells are covered before installing—this mod is modular, so you can pick only the patches you need.
- If you use multiple grass mods, make sure this mod's load order is after them so the terrain edits take priority.
- Since it's from 2021, test in a new save or a clean cell to ensure no conflicts with your current setup.
