📋 About This Mod
FABLED FORESTS - EXCLUDE MORTHAL MARSH
Disables all trees added by Fabled Forests to the Morthal marsh and all cells modified by Enhanced Landscapes - Dead Marsh Standalone. Unlike the "Exclude Morthal" patch from the Fabled Forests fomod, which only disables trees added within the city limits, this mod removes all trees added to the entirety of the Morthal marsh area to improve compatibility with mods that overhaul the same region.
An alternate version is provided for those who don't use Dead Marsh Standalone that disables ALL changes made by Fabled Forests to the marsh area. Note that this patch re-enables vanilla reach trees that were disabled by Fabled Forests. An additional patch is provided to revert these reach trees to their vanilla position and scale to play nice with mods that swap those trees with new models, such as Massive Outstandingly Insane Swamp Tree. All plugins are esl-flagged so they won’t count toward your plugin imit.
LOAD ORDER
For your game to look like my screenshots, you'll need to download Enhanced Landscapes - Dead Marsh Standalone separately and load it after this mod. Be sure to load all patches AFTER Fabled Forests and BEFORE Dead Marsh Standalone.

Enhanced Landscapes - Dead Marsh.esp
The "Dead Marsh - Handplaced MOIST Trees" file does not require the Revert Reach Trees optional. There is no dependency on Dead Marsh Standalone for this file, but the trees may clip with other assets.
RECOMMENDATIONS
• The Morthal marsh module from Ambient Clouds.
• Animated Small Blackreach Mushrooms for animations - high-poly mushrooms without animations are available here as an Optional file.
• Any of the Detailed Landscapes - Morthal Swamps BOS mods. I recommend changing the swap chance to something less than 100%.
• Check out Morthal Barrow if you're interested in new points of interest for the Morthal area.
• Unique Marsh Trees makes the reach trees in the marsh use unique models.
