GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Folkvangr is a mod that has always showed a lot of potential - be it standalone, or in a mashup with other grass mods.
However, this mod also has potential for a standalone mashup of sorts.
So that's what I did - a standalone mashup.
This is an idea I've had for a long while, and this is certainly not the first time I've created a plugin that edits Folkvangr and Folkvangr alone.
However, due to lack of motivation and some other issues, I never thought I had created something decent enough to be shared... until now.

This is a simple esp that gets loaded after Folkvangr. There are no other assets in this mod, and has Folkvangr as a mandatory dependency. It can be seen as a simple patch.


COVERAGE

Currently, the mod edits three of the regions in Skyrim:

- Pine Forest: altered so all grass is green, made it overall a bit more consistent.

- Tundra: mainly removes the annoying reeds and heather bushes that honestly make it look kinda bad. Added dead windy grass that I might remove later.

- The Rift: makes it so all grass is green and concise; removed some of the windy grass that IMO made it look too tall.

Snow, Marsh, Reach, and the Volcanic Tundra have not been touched. For the first and second, I felt no need to change anything - the scarce snow twigs are plenty, and represent my imagination really well, and the same can be said for the dead-y yet lush grass in the Marsh. As for the Reach and the Volcanic Tundra, I've yet to create something from Folkvangr that I can say I'm proud of.


INSTALLATION

- Download and install Folkvangr
- Depending on your setup, download and install Folkvangr for ENB Complex Grass (even if you're using Grass Lighting for Community Shaders)
- Download and install this mod.


COMPATIBILITY

This mod is designed to be used with Folkvangr alone.
Mashups do work but you'll be losing their edits to the changed regions.
Obviously doesn't work for other grass mods.
Compatible with all game versions, provided you're using Backported Extended ESL Support on versions lower than or equal to 1.6.640, and SkyrimVR ESL Support for VR.
