   POLICY ON TRANSLATIONS
   
   Translations with only the plugin, yes, just message me.
   
   But the whole mod... Nope.
   
   REGARDING LOD
   
   For LOD generation, first extract the mod's .BSAs using Bethesda Archive Extractor (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/78/).
   
   Use SSELODGEN ONLY to regenerate the tree atlas, but if using NMM delete this first:
   
   Data\Textures\Terrain\manny_GF_Desert\Trees\manny_GF_DesertTreeLod.dds
   
   Further reading:
   
   https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/comments/2ygf43/how_to_use_tes5lodgen/
   
   For very best results, I strongly recommend DYNDOLOD 3.0 -- generate tree billboards with Texgen instead of using the optional billboard pack.

   Hello.
   For some reason some of the trees look like this:

   Is there anything I can do to fix this?

      Perhaps I'm a bit late but what you should do is unpack the BSAs and delete the terrain folders in textures and meshes, then repack (or put the loose remaining files in the data folder), you won't have tree LOD but at least the palms shouldn't look funny.
      When I regenerate the LOD I get the same as the old one.
      Still a nice mod nonetheless.

   Any chance this could be an ESL or ESP-FE?

   For some reason I got leftover meshes of trees inside Ben Erai? I can't click them through Console either and delete them. Is this a LOD issue?

      Same thing, it's weird because some times it's working but when I close the game e restart it I get the LOD bug, It's getting me crazy.

      Due to serious issues involving the packed version, use the loose files version and run DYNDOLOD to generate correct LOD.

   Hello sa547,
   This mod improves very well the environment of Ben Erai but I encounter two problems. I solved one the problem of trees by deleting the Terrain folder in the BSA but the second one is a problem of grass coming out through the tiles. I attach a photo. Thank you in advance if sometimes you have a solution. Sorry for my English. I couldn't upload the picture

   So as to the loose file , it has meshes and textures… so just download and install and enable and then run dyndolod 3.0 and that’s it right?

      Yes, but run TexGen first -- it does the work of creating more accurate tree LOD than the pack I made.

   A fantastic idea, but just by running DynDOLOD 3alpha I got millions of tree billboard errors, so I am not even going to try it in a playthrough.. maybe if it is tested and cleaned a bit better, more information available also.. fingers crossed. Would be fantastic to have more palms in the playthrough though.. well it is what it is.

      If using DYNDOLOD 3, do not use the tree billboard pack that came with this mod but instead generate the billboards with TexGen.

   This is missing 5 texture files (4 normals and I think a specular map).  Here's the error log from the LODgen process (specifically TexGen):

      I don't know what you did, or how you came to that problem, but either you followed instructions and downloaded accordingly, or you could try using DYNDOLOD 3.0 for better tree LOD.

      That IS from DynDOLOD 3; TexGen is part of it.  The 5 texture files in question are called by meshes in the main BSA of this mod, but are not present in that BSA or the textures BSA, and are not part of the base game.  I.e., I am not hallucinating.

      Try extracting the BSAs then rerun. Sorry, been not playing Skyrim for very long.
      
      EDIT: being worked on. Repacking mod by adding missing normals for the palm tree, but there's no normals for the bananas due to original source asset author's error.

      Hi there.  I just downloaded this mod yesterday (4/24/22) and I'm still getting some of the errors from TexGen, so I'm not sure if I've gotten the updated version of the assets in the LOOSE file version?  I manually adjusted the paths (either patched them up to point to the correct file or removed/replaced them in NifSkope) to eliminate the errors for now.  Thanks for the nice work on the visuals, it looks very nice!
