💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure Happy Little Trees is installed first, then drop this mod's files into your mod manager and activate it after Happy Little Trees in your load order.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, you can preview the trees in-game to confirm the twiggy branches are gone before committing.
- This mod is a simple replacer, so it won't conflict with most other tree mods, but always check for patches if you use multiple tree overhauls.
