This mod provides the LOD models needed to generate 3D trees using DynDOLOD 3 Alpha and requires Falkreath Aspens Addon, which itself does a great job enhancing Falkreath forest in a vanilla-friendly manner. It's compatible with any vanilla tree replacer like EVT or HLT. Tree placements look 'natural' being near the water and amongst the existing vanilla-placed pines. It "adds onto" the Falkreath treescape, which is visible in all it's glory from afar with this additional add-on.
What does this mod do?
This mod is a DynDOLOD resource and does absolutely nothing unless Falkreath Aspens Addon is installed and DynDOLOD is used to generate object LOD. It's just 6 optimized LOD models (NIF files) that gather dust otherwise.
The models were created directly from the Falkreath Aspens AddOn base models by stripping out all of the nonessential meshes/data and flattening the trunks. By convention, the Falkreath Aspen CRC32 hashes were then added to the file names of the optimized LODs so that DynDOLOD will treat them as true 3D objects on the LOD atlas when generating the LOD patch mod using the 'Ultra' option. This way, the distant trees beyond the loaded area almost exactly match the actual trees within the loaded area. Without these LOD models, DynDOLOD would otherwise use pictures of the full trees projected onto flat models (billboards) in object LOD when the 'Ultra' DynDOLOD option is selected.
This mod must be enabled while generating Ultra tree LOD and can be deactivated or removed afterward, but it's standard convention to leave it enabled in case the LOD patch is recreated at a later time. Like most optimized tree LODs, the files consume negligible drive space (only about 2 Mb).
Compatibility
This mod conflicts with no mods and is therefore compatible with all mods.
For more information about using DynDOLOD 3 Alpha, check out the LOD instructions on the latest Step guide.
None of this would have been possible without sheson (DynDOLOD fork) and the xEdit developers (base application)
