Version 1.1
- Collision added to dirt mounds so PC & NPC's feet don't clip through the dirt
  Improved the shape of the dirt mounds to be more round and less blocky, also eliminated the sharp edges on the dirt mesh to prevent edges from sticking out when potatoes are placed on a slope.

Mesh Changes

Dirt mound under the potatoes has been rounded
Poly count of plant portion was increased from 288 triangles and 275 vertices to 1198 triangles and 856 vertices
The leaves and stem have been smoothed
Leaf Animations have been added (the vanilla version did not have this enabled)
UV maps have been adjusted/re-mapped
The normal maps for the roots have been flipped. It was upside down in vanilla for some reason.
Alpha property was removed from the dirt mound. This was causing the dirt mound to be invisible when used with complex terrain parallax.
Vertex colors were removed from the dirt mound. This makes the mound blend better with the surrounding ground texture when not using terrain blending.
Four mesh options are available: Exposed Roots (like vanilla), Partially Covered Roots, Covered/No Roots, and an Immersive option that distributes the three root options using Base Object Swapper

Texture Changes

The vanilla texture was AI up-scaled, then I did touch ups on the texture in Photoshop (changing the color and fixing the alpha channel)
I created a new normal map for the up-scaled and touched up texture using Substance 3D Painter
Textures are available in 1k, 2k, and 4k
