LushAMP!
__________________________________________________________
I'm happy to share with you LushAMP! A mod that aims to give the trees in the fantasy world of Skyrim more lushiness and more! The vanilla trees in Skyrim is really bare if you ask me and if you feel like I do, that a fantasy world should have more lushiness, then you've come to the right place. LushAMP for Skyrim Special Edition is similar to what "ULTIMATE LUSH OVERHAUL" by "SkyrimENB" is for regular Skyrim and is from where I found the inspiration to create this mod.

In this update for V3 there is now triple the foliage for vanilla trees along with matching LODs! The meshes are improved and now has a single trunk without clipping, that still retains all movement that the vanilla trees has.
Also as an option it is possible to select the Dragonborn texture for snowy tree that I personally like better, however it is slightly too bright and too blue so I'll try to tweak it at some point.
Since the tripled version might be a bit to taxing V2 will still be available, however I'll look into updating it to use the new methods as V3 at a later point. This could even make it more performant, as it would contains less triangles than V2.
- What it does:
In LushAMP I've reused the tree meshes from vanilla Skyrim Special Edition and essentially duplicated them and fitted the duplicates together with some positional tweaks so that they appear as one with increased lushiness. For V3 this is with three times the foliage of the default tree, and with V2 this is the double. I've carefully done this in a way to avoid intersections and seams, and V3 makes it much better than V2 in that it does not duplicate the trunk, which makes this much better. This however mean in some case that there may be branches that seem to float, however it should mostly be hidden by foliage. Because of the way this mod is done it is compatible with anything that doesn't overwrite the tree meshes.
- Install and uninstall instructions:
The mod now has a complete FOMOD installer that guides it through the install when using a mod manager.
- Known issues and future updates:
I know the LODs might not fit in in every lighting condition and I've tried to balance it as best as I can, however if you find a situation that looks completely wack let me know and I might be able to create some sort of fix. In later versions I'll try to do some more testing however I've have some other goals I want to tackle first.
I've got bigger trees on my roadmap for this mod. Where I'll make larger meshes with some options for sizing. This is my number one priority right now, as I want it for myself and my new playthrough.
Second priority is to create updated meshes for doubled foliage to make a lighter version than the tripled version.
And then the LODs will be given priority, followed by work to see if I'm able to make some better textures. At least I want to modify the Dragonborn snow texture to have a slightly more natural colour, as I find it better than the vanilla that is very noisy.
