Lightwood is a highly optimized tree replacer mod designed to boost performance without sacrificing visual quality— all in just 39.7 MB!

  • No requirements, no ESP – safe to install or uninstall anytime.
  • No more pop-ins; the tree model and LOD models have the same level of detail, so trees always look consistent.
  • Includes full 3D LODs for seamless visuals at all distances.
  • Trees are carefully modeled to stay within 300–700 triangles each, making them ideal for low-end systems or heavily modded setups.
  • Aspens use your installed aspen textures, ensuring compatibility with your texture mod setup.
  • Despite the low poly count, the trees retain a natural and immersive look that fits Skyrim’s atmosphere.
Ideal for players who want smooth gameplay with minimal visual compromise.

Installation
  • Download the mod using your preferred mod manager (Mod Organizer 2 or Vortex is recommended).
  • Install it like any other mod – no special steps required.
  • Generate LODs using DynDOLOD or xLODGen if you want the full 3D LODs to appear in-game.
