📋 About This Mod
Retextures the sawdust present near wood mills. Looks like woodchips instead of the vanilla-splurge.
Complex parallax support. Includes models with complex para on, as well as some UV tweaks that aren't necessary but make it look a bit better and tiles less.. Feel free to overwrite them with whatever you have in your LO. The milllog model is based off of Assorted mesh fixes, model, credits to wSkeever for his work!
Btw some of the images have background objects lacking textures, that is not a feature of this mod, but rather another one I'm working on, from where I pulled this one out of as a stand alone.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 704 endorsements and 95k downloads
- Simple visual upgrade that makes sawdust look way better
- Parallax option adds real depth without needing a full texture overhaul
⚠️ Cons
- Parallax can be a performance hog on lower-end rigs
- Only affects sawdust, so don't expect changes to other textures
- Might conflict with other texture overhauls that touch the same files
For 7 Days to Die players who notice the little details and want sawdust to look less flat. If you're running a texture pack already, check for conflicts. Skip if you're after gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager, just drop the zip in and activate—no manual file placement needed.
- For the parallax effect, make sure your graphics settings have 'Texture Quality' set to High or Ultra, otherwise it won't show.
- If you're on a server, all players need the mod installed to see the same textures.
