Help make this mod better!
I need your help to make this mod the best it can be. Specifically, collision is still missing from various trees, and I need assistance finding and identifying them. Install FormID Finder and use it to identify such trees. Good places to look include the Jerall Mountains and the Shivering Isles, but there may be others. Then report here and I can apply any fixes easily.
Lush and Gaudy Revisited
Brittany's fantastic Lush and Gaudy: Floriana Gloria is an excellent replacer for trees and other flora and landscape in Oblivion. Unfortunately, it also has a number of headaches. The organization on the mod page is a mess of optional and alternative files. The files themselves aren't much better: neither the main files nor the recommended optimization updates are structured with Wrye Bash or other mod organizers in mind. The mod itself features many trees with missing collisions, meaning you can walk right through them among other issues. Finally, some of the design choices are perhaps not to everyone's taste.
These problems are now solved! (mostly)
I've merged the main files with the optimizations, so you may be spared the difficulty of applying the update yourself. Various options are now structured in a BAIN-friendly format, so you can easily choose between them using Wrye Bash, instead of extracting and installing manually. These includes options that were included in the main files, as well as a few neglected options moldering under the "Old Files" section of the original mod page.
Thanks to a solution provided by syphex97, many trees now have collision that were missing it before. Unfortunately not all trees have been fixed; please reread and consider the top of this description to see how you can help!
Finally, some of Brittany's more idiosyncratic design choices have been separate from the main mod as options. These include the very blue Jerall rocks, trees, and distant land; the checkerboard Cameron's Paradise, and the psychedelic textures of the Shivering Isles. The original autumnal Blackwood is still part of the main file, but can now be replaced by the optional Green Swamp Frippery, one of the long-forgotten "Old Files" mentioned above. See the readme files for a full description of various options and changes.
To install, please use Wrye Bash (Mod Organizer may also work?). In the installers tab, select the mod. Then select Core Files and any other option you may wish from the Sub-Packages pane. Right-click the mod file and select Install. Remember to move it where you want in your Install Order; mods that are lower in your Install Order overwrite those above!
Katkat Palm Patch
This optional file is for people using either of the LG Palms packages. It also works with the Tree to Palm plugin from Betty's Blackwood Jungle mod. It replaces the low-res palm tree meshes with HD palms created by Katkat. It's not only a significant visual improvement; it also helps to unify the two mods. Using all three mods I've found is the best way to make Cyrodiil the jungle environment it was originally intended to be, without too massive an overhaul. Install after Lush & Gaudy Revisited and Blackwood Jungle.
