📋 About This Mod

Just install it, load it after 3D trees. Done.

I picked the smaller trees because of compatibility reasons. It is done so to reduce any potential clipping. Will maybe experiment with other tree models in the future. 

OBS! DYNDOLOD AND/OR xLODGen USERS!

You will have to rerun your choice of lod-generation tool to generate new LODs for the replaced trees. Not doing so will result in new trees with old lods.

Skyrim 3D Trees and Plants by mathy79

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This mod fixes the snowy pine trees in Solstheim by replacing them with duplicates from 3D trees, removing the vanilla spiky appearance. It's a cosmetic improvement for Skyrim players who want better-looking snowy pines, though it's not a perfect solution. With 455 endorsements and over 105k downloads, it's a popular fix.

✨ Key Features

Replaces snowy pine trees in Solstheim with duplicates from 3D trees

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 455 endorsements and over 105k downloads
  • Simple cosmetic fix that makes Solstheim look noticeably better
  • Lightweight mod that doesn't overhaul the entire tree system

⚠️ Cons

  • Not a perfect solution—uses duplicates from 3D trees, so some uniqueness is lost
  • May conflict with other tree overhaul mods that modify Solstheim's trees
  • Last updated in 2021, so it might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim versions
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who love Solstheim but hate the vanilla spiky snowy pines. If you're using 3D Trees or want a quick visual upgrade without a full tree overhaul, this is for you. Skip if you're fine with vanilla trees or want a comprehensive tree mod.
