📋 About This Mod

UPDATE NOW HAS HUNDREDS OF FOLIAGE MODELS INCLUDING JUNGLE TREES, CYPRESS TREES, CEDAR TREES AND MORE! LOD MODELS WHICH NOW WORK EVERYWHERE AND FOR ALL MODS WITH STATIC LODSAND TREE LODS! FIXED COLLISION MESHES AND A CLEAN FOREST ESP FOR NEW MODS AND TUTORIALS ON HOW TO ADD THE TREES SO YOU CAN SAVE YOUR OWN FORESTS IN YOUR EXISTING MOD! Ga-Knomboe Boy\'s Trees adds 4 Giant Redwoods, 7 Coast Redwoods, 4 Cyrodil Trees, 2 Cyrodil Cypress Trees, 2 Snow Gum Trees, 5 Cypress trees, 5 Cedar trees, 4 large oaks, 9 weeping trees, 26 maple trees, 4 palms, 4 beach palms, 4 fan palms, 3 date palms, 2 flat palms, 21 jungle-oak trees (with hundreds of colour variations), 24 stick trees, 30 maple trees, 4 savanna trees, 4 palm trees, 4 bamboo trees, 4 mangrove trees, 8 new orange and red aspen trees, 16 new green, brown and twig aspen trees 37 new green oak trees, and 12 shrubberies, without replacing any of the existing trees in the Skyrim world. I felt Skyrim lacked a bit of variety with its vegetation, so I\'m going to add new environments for players and resources for modders! These models won\'t replace existing skyrim trees, rather this resource provides you with new trees with alternative textures and LOD\'s. Some of the models have been modified adding more polygons for the leaf planes as the trees were looking a bit bare after a simple retexture. These green leaf trees include reach trees, white run trees, maple vines, shrubs, cliff trees, and so on. So there is quite a bit of variation, but they have all been textured to look like oak trees, so you can make a big oak forest. The red and orange aspen trees allow for more colour variety, so you can add a range of hues to the fall forest. So enjoy and please use this in whatever mod you want, just don\'t rename the trees and give credit in your read me files.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite (907 endorsements) — clearly does something right
  • Huge download count (15,996) shows it's been tried by many
  • Lightweight approach: re-textures vanilla models, so performance impact is minimal

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2013 — likely outdated and may conflict with newer mods or game patches
  • Only affects trees — if you want more comprehensive landscape overhauls, this won't cover it
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want a quick, simple visual upgrade to the trees without overhauling the entire landscape. If you're a modder looking for a base to build on, the re-textured vanilla models could be a good starting point. Skip if you want modern, high-res textures or a complete flora overhaul.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this mod only replaces textures and models, it's safe to install manually by dropping the files into your Data folder, but using a mod manager makes it easier to uninstall if you don't like it.
  • Check for conflicts with other tree mods — load order matters if you use multiple landscape overhauls.
  • If you're playing Skyrim Special Edition, this mod may need conversion; test it in a new game or save to ensure it works.
