Description:

This is no Mod in itself but a tutorial on how to build your own Hybrid Trees for Dyndolod's Ultra Trees option. The method used is by no means the only way to build your own Hybrid Trees but it is the method I used to create the Ultra Trees for Skyrim Flora Overhaul Version 2.5b which you can download on Skyrim Flora Overhaul's mod page. I hope that it will give those who wish to build their custom trees for their mod setup a way to do so with fewer difficulties I had when building those trees.

Prerequisites:

You will need a functioning Blender 2.49b and 2.79 installation as well as Nifscope 1.1.3 and Nifscope 2.0 dev 7.
The Blender Nifscripts should be at least installed in Blender Version 2.49b but you can also install the appropriate ones for Blender 2.79b.
I don't yet know if the newest Blender Version also supports the Nifscripts for 2.79b but feel free to let me know if you already tried them.
Gimp is used to create the textures and normal maps so the newest version is also a requirement.

Additional info: In the case you are completely new to Blender I would recommend taking a look at this introductory course: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro

P.S.:

Feel free to give me your comments on the posts page for any suggestions for improvement of the tutorial.

Future Plans:

I found another and quicker way to edit those meshes in Blender. I will rewrite the tutorial soon.
