About this mod
Comprehensive fix for the floating bushes issue that occurs when using JK's Skyrim or Whiterun Outskirts with Traverse the Ulvenwald. No plugin!

The amazing Traverse the Ulvenwald mod removes some vanilla tree assets by replacing them with invisible ones as an artistic choice of the author. These vanilla assets are cleverly used in JK's Skyrim and Whiterun Outskirts mods to create a sort of custom tree. The removal of these trees when using Ulvenwald results in some floating bushes which can be observed most notably outside the Vilemyr Inn in Rorikstead but also anywhere where JK uses this technique.
There is a patch for this issue already using assets from Happy Little Trees which was very helpful for tracking down the problem, but it only works for the Lite version of Ulvenwald because the Full version includes locational variants of the invisible tree assets with unique paths. This means that users of the Full version will not be able to use the above patch and will also not be able to simply hide the assets because the game will be looking for the wrong paths. I also noticed that the assets from Happy Little Trees are very different from the vanilla ones JK is using which means some of the bushes are still floating when using those assets.
Since I quite like the eerie atmosphere added by these trees (if you agree with the author about their removal and only use Whiterun Outskirts you can use this patch instead), I restored them using open permissions meshes originally from Spooknik's LE Mod Tundra Trees HD used in HD Dead Trees and Driftwoods with paths matching both Ulvenwald Full and Lite since those assets are almost identical to vanilla. That mod is a hard requirement because I would essentially just be reuploading that file in its entirety with new paths if I included the textures. If you do not install it you will have purple trees!
