📋 About This Mod

I like Happy Little Trees' Pines but the inability to generate LOD for Bruma while using it held me back from putting it in my load order, so I decided I would manually edit the Bruma texture atlas to use HLT's billboards meaning that I can use HLT without worrying about regenerating LOD for Bruma and losing the full Cyrodiil LOD.

Also available is a vanilla snow style retexture for Happy Little Trees with its own corresponding Bruma LOD.
