🌳 Module function

This mod aims to make the snowy forests of the Western Grizzly Region more dense by replacing smaller Douglas Fir tree models with fully mature tree models.

🎯 Creative inspiration

Inspired by the Dense Tall Trees mod, I wanted to recreate what Derek Leet had achieved.

⚠️ Current Limitations

The main problem at the moment is the short LOD (level of detail) distance of the replacement model. The original model reappears after a certain distance, leaving the dream of truly lush grizzly territory not yet fully realized.

🔧 Ask for help

I released this version as a beta version in the hope that players who have more knowledge about .yft, .ydr files or LODs can help me advance this project.

Thanks to everyone who is interested! (P.S. We’re back!)

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
