📋 About This Mod
DESCRIPTION
This mod is inspired by the original Grass Field mod by tamu75, but it doesn't use any assets from it. Grass textures are from vurt, they are color adjusted. And the performance friendly 3 triangle mesh is from JonnyWang13. It also includes some flowers from Cathedral Landscapes for a little variation. Performance is the main goal of this mod.
Grass density is carefully modified to give lush visuals in the distance and also to be performance friendly at the same time. It's tested and adjusted to be used with Skyrim VR, but it's of course usable in SSE. It also includes specially color adjusted textures for terrain lod generation with xLODGEN for seamless fake grass lods in the distance. There is also pregenerated terrain lod files in the downloads for people who don't know or don't want to generate it themselves (Compatible with MystiriousDawn's landscape textures).
Grass is green everywhere (Except frozen marsh which is grey), but there are two versions that make whiterun tundra brown or green. In Recolored version, whiterun tundra and volcanic tundra are brown, Rift grasses are orange and the rest are green.
There is no grass in snowy regions.
It also removes land rocks that are grass (This is done for performance reasons).
All the screenshots are taken with Azurite Weathers + Sensorium Of Stereoscopy ENB + iMinGrassSize=50 in Skyrim VR. MystiriousDawn's landscape textures are used in the screenshots.
Grass brightness is adjusted for use with ENBs. The screenshots are taken with increased saturation (I like it that way myself), so your mileage may vary depending on the weather you use. I provided screenshots with LUT enabled and disabled to show you the difference.
If you want grass to not stick out as much, you can use another landscape texture mod.
