About this mod

This mod replaces vegetation LODs around LC to yellow & orange autumn ones. If you're using an autumn vegetation texture mod, but seeing autumn trees get replaced with green summer tree LODs at distance is too immersion breaking, here's the solution.

This mod replaces vegetation LODs around LC to yellow & orange autumn ones. If you're using an autumn vegetation texture mod, but seeing autumn trees get replaced with green summer tree LODs at distance is too immersion breaking, here's the solution.
LODs are low-res tree models that replace normal trees when you're far away. In the vanilla, they are too green to match the new autumn trees. The modded LOD textures have the same resolution as vanilla ones, so they shouldn't impact performance.

Installation:
Run OpenIV
1. First, let's replace the main tree LOD texture:
Navigate to Autumn Tree Lods\Mod Files\pc\data\cdimages\gtxd.img
Open \pc\data\cdimages\gtxd.img in the game files
Enable edit mode
Drag & drop tree_lods.wtd to your game's gtxd.img
2. Now you'll have to replace 16 auxiliary LOD textures located in different subfolders in \pc\data\maps\:
Open \pc\data\maps\ in the mod files and in the game files
Find & edit all 16 files in your game's \pc\data\maps\ subfolders
For example:
navigate to \pc\data\maps\east\bronx_w2.img in the mod files
open \pc\data\maps\east\bronx_w2.img in the game files with OpenIV
drag & drop lodwii_trees.wtd to your game's bronx_w2.img
Do this to all game's files and folders specified in \pc\data\maps\ in the mod files

ALWAYS MAKE BACKUPS
