About this mod

Changes tree LOD's to more precisely match the Arboretum colors. I made this to improve the look of the landscape with RAEVWD but it works just fine without it. The only requirement is Arboretum.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
For some reason after installing RAEVWD and running TES4LODGen the color of my distant trees began to look noticeably different than their local versions. This is my attempt to correct it.


--- Please Note ---

You can expect updates as I play through my current build of Oblivion and find more trees that need adjusting. Updating is painless, just uninstall the old version and install the new. There is no need to re-run TES4LODGen.

The changes made in this mod were designed for Arboretum but may improve the LOD for other tree overhauls such as Oblivion Trees Overhaul. Try it and if you don't like it you can have your money back!

This mod changes ONLY the view of distant trees. it does not touch any landscape or architecture LOD's. Effects may vary depending on what visual improvement mods you have installed (Oblivion Reloaded, OBGE v3, ENB, etc). Please be aware that this mod doesn't make any changes to the "shape" of the tree billboards (tree LOD's), just the colors. Watch the video and see if your distant trees look similar, if they do you will most likely benefit from using this patch. RAEVWD is not required, only Aboretum.



For the record my build includes OBGE v3 and not Oblivion Reloaded but it shouldn't make a difference. I am not using an ENB. I also use Koldorns LOD Noise Replacer  and New Tree Shadows and highly recommend both.
