📋 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.
This mod retextures Bruma's LOD atlas to match Happy Little Trees' pine trees, offering a workaround for full LOD generation. It also includes a vanilla snow style retexture for Happy Little Trees with a corresponding Bruma LOD. For Skyrim players using Happy Little Trees who want consistent distant views in Bruma.
