📋 About This Mod
Initially starting with my mod to add music to the worldspace of Hwiccian's Zion Trail, it has now evolved into a light overhaul enhancing many aspects I felt could be added to!
This mod makes a number of changes all directed towards filling-out some of the more "empty" feeling aspects of the otherwise mastercrafted mod. While my initial idea was to add music, I have expanded it to the point that I feel justified releasing this as a redux version. Install this after the original plugin for the best Zion Trail experience.
With this mod you can expect
-Music in several locations and setpieces.
-Snow and trees have been added to high elevation areas to distinguish this area from the Mojave and to match photos of the true surroundings.
-A LOT of new handplaced vegetation and rocks to flesh out the rather empty roadsides. This added flora makes the experience of moving through the map much better.
-A few more handplaced wildlife encounters to spice up some empty areas.
-Experimental use of the ambient noise concepts found in TheKetzku's ATMOS Ambient Sound Overhaul, including metal creaking, flourescent lights, bangs and echos, etc. This ambient noise mod looks very promising and I hope to see it come to New Vegas!
Just install and allow this mod's edited ZionTrail-NV.esp to overwrite the original Zion Trail version. If you already have vurt's WFO either allow this mod to overwrite it or not, either way you should have the assets you need.
This requires the original Zion Trail obviously, just install this one over the OG.
Please use with the Honest Hearts Trees and Plants Replacer located under Wasteland Flora Overhaul!
