📋 About This Mod
Mesh and texture replacement for normal thickets, snowy thickets, and ash thickets.
Version 2 makes the thickets more 3D. Meshes are much more complex than the original mod (4000 vertices and triangles), but should not cause an issue unless you have many thickets in an area or your PC is already struggling. Version 2 textures are currently available in 2k. I will work on adding 1k textures and possibly PBR at a later date.
Version 1 is still available for those who prefer that to version 2.
This texture uses images I took of a saw greenbrier (Smilax bona-nox) to replace the thicket.
Since the thicket has a vanilla snowy version, this should support Seasons of Skyrim without the need for a patch.
Available in 1k, 2k, and 4k resolutions.
