📋 About This Mod
For some reason there are quite a few places where shrubs are placed literally on path where NPCs walk. It makes no sense at all, in real life someone would cut it. So I have removed the worst offenders to make things more plausible. Load the plugin early in the load order, compatible with pretty much everything. Plugin is ESL flagged.
Check screenshots for examples. Mod will be updated if I find more problems.
Meshes used on screenshots - 3D Thicket and Dead Shrub. This mesh is a little bigger than vanilla mesh, but I'm removing only the objects with very weird placement, so I don't think that using this one as reference is a problem.
Removes shrubs and bushes from Fallout 4 that are placed in nonsensical locations, such as on roads or inside buildings. A simple environmental cleanup mod with 430 endorsements and over 372k downloads, last updated in February 2024.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (372k) shows it's a popular choice for cleaning up the wasteland.
- Simple concept: removes only the shrubs that don't make sense, so you keep the natural look.
- Two versions (BOS or plugin) give you flexibility in how you install it.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in February 2024 — could be outdated if the game has had updates since then.
- 430 endorsements is modest compared to downloads, suggesting some users may have had issues or moved on.
For Fallout 4 players who are tired of seeing bushes growing through roads or inside ruined buildings. If you want a cleaner, more logical Commonwealth without removing all vegetation, this is for you. Skip if you're fine with the vanilla shrub placement or want more comprehensive landscaping overhauls.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install—no extra steps needed.
- Check if the mod is compatible with your other environmental mods; load order might matter if you use multiple overhauls.
- Since it's a simple mesh removal, you can safely uninstall it mid-playthrough if you change your mind.
