Simple texture mod that makes the game trees look a little better.
Normal and low res included.

Credit/thanks:
Ubisoft - For a great game & some really interesting tree models

Special thanks:
jimimadrid - For sending me a new .dds plugin that helped me start making mods

Captain Cox, Digital Trucker, Ducimus, jimimadrid, and Dave "LeoVampire" - For all their excellent mods that make the game so enjoyable.

Extra special thanks:
My partner for being so very understanding about the time I have spent on photoshop and for being an all round great lady.

Issues:
Normally none - this is just a re-texture.

Install:
JSGME Ready - Extract anywhere, copy "Install Tree Mod V1.0" to your MODS folder and activate with JSGME
Manual Install - Extract the archive in a location of your choice and copy normal and low res textures to /Data/textures/TNormal/tex &
/Data/textures/TLowRes/tex

V1.1 Corrected Alpha problem that caused feint lines in sky above the tree. (This was always there: It was just hard to see with the old tree textures being so large and bright). Improved bark texture of Evergreen Trees.

Very well done! Thank you!

[Nauticalwolf]

Just noticed I still had my [WIP] ground texture mod going when I made the screenies. Please ignore the background hills as I won't/can't release the ground texture mod until I get permission from Kriller2. I have used some of the stones from one of his PE2 texture files.

I hope to get a reply from him shortly and will then release Terrain Mod V1.0

[THE_MASK]

Man , this is exactly what i have been looking forward to since SH4 came out:up:

[M. Sarsfield]

Tress look really good in game. Looking forward to other landscape fixes. I noticed less lag in Freemantle, but I'm not sure if this is a benefit of your mod or other changes that I have made.

[clayman]

Loaded this the other day and forgot to say thanks!

One more stone on the way to the photo-real. Really adds to the atmosphere! :up:

[Nauticalwolf]

Walrusbomb,

The mod is just a rework (big rework) of tree_kit.dds file, it just replaces the textures of all the trees, as long as the Improved Mountains Mod does not alter settings in either the vegetation.dat or the harbors.dat (these files deal with render distance, fog etc for the trees) Then this mod is fully compatible.

It would be compatable even if changes were made, but I just couldn't vouch for how the changes would affect the look of the trees.

Enjoy :)
