📋 About This Mod
v0. 3: Read Changelog
True Grass is an all-in-one lore-friendly grass, plant and flora overhaul to reshape the Fallout 4 landscape into something more wild, more diversified and more natural.
Grass, plants, ground textures and distant LODs have been redone.
New grass types, flowers, plants or even some subtle mutated plants have been added.
Landscapes now uses more color tons between green and browns with some occasional stronger color spots.
Most of the vegetation types are different depending of the location.
FPS hit is minimal on my end, but just in case a performance ini file is also included within the TrueGrass download and should be located in the Fallout4/Data folder after installation, next to the esp:
The ini setting file can be opened with any text editor and allows to set the foliage density.
True Grass is compatible with any mod altering trees only,
but NOT with mods altering grass or plants !
Recommended mods to use with True Grass:
- Natural & Atmospheric Commonwealth (Weather, lighting and visual overhaul)
- Commonwealth Conifer Redux (Trees overhaul)

⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2017 — may not be fully compatible with the latest Fallout 4 patches or DLC.
- No detailed description provided, so you're going in blind on what exactly changes.
- Potential performance impact on lower-end systems due to increased flora density (common for such mods).

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple texture/mesh replacer, you can install it manually by dropping the files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 makes uninstalling easier.
- If you're on PC, make sure to enable mods in your Fallout 4 ini files (bEnableFileSelection=1) to avoid the mod not showing up.
- Check the mod's comments section on Nexus for user reports on performance and compatibility with other flora mods before adding it to your load order.
