About this mod

Barren Trees is a lightweight tree overhaul that makes the trees more barren looking by removing the branches. This is done without touching precombined geometry, as it simply removes the branch textures and doesn't touch any meshes.
Xbox version available

To avoid having tree branches on distant trees here you can either use the standard LOD file uploaded here which is for the vanilla game, or you can create your own LOD using xLODGEN. A great tutorial written by payl0ad is here.

The tree LOD texture files needed to create your own LOD are included in with the main file.

I originally created this for my own use, as when I have used Boston FPS fix after Desperados in Fallout 4 VR, I was met with a number of trees coming back, which looked odd when the rest of the environment is desert. Loading Barren Trees in allows the trees that come back due to Boston FPS fix to fit better with the Desperados themed wasteland.

Load Order
Barren Trees should be able to be loaded anywhere or after any mod that edits tree textures; texture overhauls like Vivid Fallout likely conflict and would need to be loaded before Barren Trees.

Barren Trees LOD should be able to be loaded anywhere as you should only have one mod at a time for LOD
