📋 About This Mod
New big pines added to the tundra!
Version II of the mod is fully animated (branches and leaves). Many thanks to MrNeverLost who's done additions to the nifexporter and has done a fantastic effort to make these branch animations possible!
Q: Is this compatible with SFO?
A: Yes. The mod should be compatible with just about anything really. It does not add any scripts or similar it just adds a few new trees to the game. It's 100% compatible with other tree mods unless they happen to place a tree in the same spot as my trees (unlikely).
Q: Does it come with LOD's?
A: Yes it comes with 3D LOD's to be generated by e.g dyndolod (please search youtube for instructions, it's not hard to create LOD's)
