Grass Cache Helper NG

Description

- Grass Cache Helper NG hooks the game at runtime to modify . GID file loading to . CGID file loading. This allows . CGID files generated by "No Grass In Objects" to be used by the game without renaming them. So you don't need to rename files anymore and you don't need to replace buggy .gid files from the game.

- It supports Seasons of Skyrim by detecting the current season and loading the correct .. CGID file automatically. Seasons of Skyrim support includes support for season overrides by other mods as well. If you don't wish to use this feature, you should disable seasonal grass types from Seasons of Skyrim's config file (po3_SeasonsOfSkyrim.ini) for each season by setting Grass = false.

- It allows adding/removing "No Grass" flag for worldspaces without the need for an esp file. By default, config file includes settings for WhiterunWorld(removes flag) and KatariahWorld(adds flag).

- It applies recommended ini settings automatically by detecting the situation such as:

• []Automatically sets bAllowCreateGrass, bAllowLoadGrass, bGenerateGrassDataFiles settings in the game ini by detecting if you are generating precache or not.[/]

  []Automatically calculates and sets iGrassCellRadius, fGrassStartFadeDistance, fGrassFadeRange using uGridsToLoad setting.[/]

  []Automatically adjust grass fade if you are using Grass LODs. (Not detected automatically, so set UsingGrassLOD to 1 from the config if you are using Grass LODs).[/]

This mod is compiled using CommonLib-NG and it's compatible with SE/AE/VR/GOG - All versions of the game.

FAQ

Q- When I have this mod enabled. there is no grass visible in game. when I have this mod Disabled all my grass is visible. What would be causing this issue?

A- This mod enables loading grass instead of creating it at runtime. If all your grass disappears, one of these things happened:

- You don't have a grass cache installed (.cgid files that can be generated with NGIO). If this is the case, you need to generate grass precache or install an already generated grass cache downloaded from here on nexus.

- You have a grass cache installed, but you have Seasons of Skyrim installed, and the grass cache you installed do not have seasonal grass caches (*. SPR|SUM|AUT|WIN. CGID files). If this is the case, you can either gener
