Double posting to add this one I really liked. Trees really make things flesh out imo

Re: Trees Of Daggerfall
First guess would be that the 3d models don't get replaced by their billboard imposters at distance. We are talking about speedtree trees, aren't we?TheLacus wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2019 8:49 pm From a quick test it looks like terrain distance (main menu->advanced->video) has a big effect: I go from 50+ fps with distance 2 to 5-10 fps with distance 4. I guess this is to be expected but there is probably room for improvements. I'll see if i can make some tweaks for tree models import, but this would probably help loading times more that performance.
Anyway, this mod looks really great
What would help to diagnose the issue would be to see the individual tree gameobjects in the hierarchy window somewhere. Then we could look up different instances of trees to see if the settings are correct

Re: Trees Of Daggerfall
There are no winter trees so nothing is replaced here except for the vegetation of the dungeon entrance location, which is not affected by season. Try to walk in the wilderness in summer
They switch to billboards but i think the issue is that even billboards cause performance issues if they are drawn too far in the distance. I'm going to try to reduce maximum distance at which trees are drawn, if it helps I'll add it as a setting so tree distance can be scaled indipendently from terrain distance.Nystul wrote: ↑Fri Mar 08, 2019 7:35 amFirst guess would be that the 3d models don't get replaced by their billboard imposters at distance.

EDIT nevermind, terrain settings only affect assets made with Unity tree creator. Speedtree trees follow their own lod options, so mod creators need to set it theirselves.

Re: Trees Of Daggerfall
I wanted to climb trees in the gamrs since I saw a 1st 3d tree screenshot in the 90s... games failed miserably at delivering this to me. Please make this a feature
Maybe if Tedious travel MOD is ON the trees shold have no colliders.. but damn I need a tree climbing in DFU! Bring back the childhood

Well, its not me. Ive just stumble across this. Ive set up the trees with a simple trunk colliders, the climbing skill (advanced as specially) do that.
I can maybe expand on this a little more and add few more colliders per tree, following branches more tightly etc. Ill do this later (in the V1.5 or something), if there is enough interest in people for this feature.
EDIT: - I think that colliders on trees are only activated inside town/city areas and other points of interest, but not in the wilderness.

Ive rescaled all of the terrain/housing vanilla textures with the AIGigapixel. Just using it internally.King of Worms wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2019 12:51 pm Sounds good to me

Added a couple of new small rock replacements for the 504 set.

That rock looks incredible by the way! And seeing all the trees together in one scene looks fantastic!
