📋 About This Mod
SE|AE
This is a port of T4GTR34UM3R 's Happy Little Trees
Happy Little Trees is a Vanilla Tree Replacer that aims for good visuals while having a very low performance cost
There are great looking, performance expensive trees on many Discord Channels and fast trees on the Nexus.
Additional Features:
The mod is shipped with a Treescale.esm.
This plugin makes most green and dead pines 20 percent larger. But you can also set your personal tree size.
Check the guide in the article section.
A load order hint for this plugin!
The Treescale.esm should be as high as possible in your LO. Set it at least
1 position higher than USLEEP. This avoids region naming issues and
potentially overwritten worldspace fixes.
