📋 About This Mod

This is a mere photoshop retexture I made awhile back, so that to bring a bit more life and variety into Skyrim landscape. The mod affects only a few kinds of Reach and Tundra trees and one kind of Reach bush (please, use Preview file contents option and check out the pictures to get more info). I left one kind of a tree as it is, so you still can meet vanilla dead trees here and there in the mountain slopes of Reach and probably in other regions of Skyrim.

I should warn you, I still know nearly nothing about LOD, so the files marked with LOD postfix may be considered redundant. Probably not, I am not sure. It's WIP, I guess. At least, I found no issues or any glitches while testing this small pack of trees.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in January 2022 — might not be patched for the latest Skyrim updates, though it's likely fine for most.
