About this mod

New Vegas cactus desert, cypress forest and jungle The radioactive warming spreads the desert to Appalachia. Nostalgic version.

Permissions and credits
Global Warming - Flora Overhaul for Fallout76

Based on the realistic Age of Solstice  and psychedelic Nuclear Summer this mod is much more controversial and bold.
Cactus, yucca
, palm trees... The nature has changed dramatically.

Play with a change of scenery
and add some shocking difference to your world. Enjoy the sentimental New Vegas beauty.

It is like a new game.

If you want something 100% realistic and lifelike try "Age of Solstice" - a less colorful version.

The original idea was to recreate the dry desert of New Vegas. Unfortunately, nothing could be done with the vanilla LOD. It was simply impossible to get rid of red and yellow trees in the distance, and the desert surrounded by fall forest looked weird. So it was necessary to add some trees.

BONUS

Now the wood piles and logs work like harvestable plants changing their appearance after picking them.

INSTALLATION

1. Download the archive and unzip files to your Fallout 76 Data folder (for example, "...\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout76\Data").
2. In the "Fallout76Custom.ini" file located in "\Documents\My Games\Fallout 76",  add the following lines:

[Archive]
sResourceArchive2List = AoS_GW_T.ba2, AoS_GW_M.ba2

TIP

1. It is highly recommended to have the grass on and its quantity to the max.  If you don't see these lines add them to the
Fallout76Custom.ini.
[Grass]
bAllowCreateGrass=1
iMinGrassSize = 20

2. On the load screen (when you see "Press any button to start") wait for 5-10 sec. to let the game load big mods.

3. If you have Steam version, go to your Steam library, open the game settings and click "Verify integrity of game files" to remove a possible conflict with cashed vanilla textures.


There are no FPS drops.


CREDITS


It took time to find out the origins of the assets I used in this mod and get all permissions. Good things take time. Giving credits and saying thanks is a good thing.
It was hard to identify original authors of some models and textures from my vast library of assets. If I miss some credits please let me know. I'll be happy to add them.

This mod wouldn't be possible without these artists and their work.
