1 minute preview of V4 Winter. I've also made some improvements to other seasons as well.

 

 

It's pretty much complete but I want to wait until the next DCS update to see if it breaks (or fixes) anything. So release in couple days.

Wow! 

Just saw this now, is it still maintained?

  • So far there has been no need to update the latest v6 of the Better Trees Mod. 
  • But yeah... WOW, the trees really help Caucasus look better.  I can only offer "Conspiracy Theories" as to why Eagle Dynamics has not adopted the Better Trees Mod into the Core game. 🤣

I've been away from DCS for years. It's not related to textures specifically but... isn't there scale of the trees completely off?! The seem too high to me.

In any case, well done and thank you for your work! 👍 The trees is an example of an absolutely shoddy work on ED's part, topped on my list only by sky color banding and the @%$@ hardcoded bloom effect.

Many of us dreaming of updated Taz patches for 2.9. Or confirmation current versions are good to go.

Hopefully our dreams will come true sometime in the near future

😉

 

Works fine here under 2.9

So rotor wash works with Taz Trees?

Yes. This mod (and its Marianas version) only replaces textures, so doesn't affect model animation, which is a separate thing.

Hey how are you doing?  Quick question and bare with me (just found this mod and I'm new to using OvGME).  Just wanted to ask what is the installation route for OvGME.  Is it OvGME Mod Manager\DCS Root Install and then put folder Taz 1004_Better_Trees_v6_Dark (or name of folder) into the DCS Root or would it be the vfstextures folder going into the DCS Root folder?  Hope that makes sense.  I appreciate what you do and thank you for your help in advance.

This question would be more appropriate on OvGME thread as it's about how to use OvGME.

Under Config - Edit Current.  The path you set for "Configuration mods folder".  Just drop the zip file of this mod into that folder.  And then enable the mod.

I'm just downloading these to have a first look, but not sure I'll try them all as I initially intended - the downloads are at low ADSL transfer speeds so it takes a long time for a single 46MB file.

Don't know where they are located - currently 77kbps on my fibre connection which should have them down in a few seconds. Shame, but still - thanks for doing them, heard nothing but good comments so this will be the first mod I've used since DCSW 2.5 (excepting aircraft) because default Caucasus in VR looks dire.

I am in Canada and just tested the download of the Better Trees V6. Took 5 seconds.  Do you have a VPN running or can you try downloading using another browser?

Hello  @Taz1004 ! Thank you so much for the great tree mod! Excuse me, I'm probably asking too much, but... is there a chance to get an additional winter tree option in the future? In winter, in countries with a warm climate (including Caucasus), they can often be dark (dark brown?) rather than white

(also, even in colder countries, trees can often look like this in winter)

In addition, we now have a Barthek mod with snowless winter  🙂..

Replace all files in the ForestSubctrateWinter, ForestSubctrateWinter, Trees7Winter, Trees7Winter archives with any other files from the seasons archives. Rename the json files in the archives with new tree files for winter to forestsubctratewinter and trees7winter. Enjoy.

Thank you, I replaced the winter trees with autumn ones, but these are still not trees without leaves, like here
