Autumn Alder Tree Pack

Description


The Tree

Alders are a common member of the birch family found extensively across the northern hemisphere. I modeled a relatively generic sampling of them to try and capture the variety found internationally, but I used the red alder of the Pacific Northwest as my main point of reference. These can pretty easily stand in for similar birch or ash trees.

These deciduous trees live fast, short lives, and their fire resistance makes them good natural firebreaks. They quickly populate rivers and wetlands, although some varieties can thrive in drier biomes as well.

Introduction

This is a pack of 10 trees and 1 stump. It's an autumn variation of my Alders, which are available in normal green and (soon) winter variations as well.

Technical

- All 11 assets in the pack share a single 512 x 1024 texture. The Loading Screen Mod should eliminate the vast majority of functional RAM requirement for this pack.

- Tri counts are low-ish for trees of these sizes. Only the chonkiest tree breaks 1k, with most of the others hovering around 400 - 700. Performance in CSL is a slippery target but anecdotally I've found these to be some of my less taxing trees.

- I did NOT alter tree sway on these assets. Based on my experience with the previous packs, I now recommend using the Tree Movement Control mod to reduce sway, which can eliminate sway on LODs as well, and doubles for random tree rotation.

- Tree LOD Fix is critical as always, and the larger trees may warrant Ultimate Level of Detail and/or Adaptive Prop Visibility Distance.

I'm very grateful for all the work put into this already, but I'm begging you to release versions with different coloured leaves! The quality of this pack is so good that they make other autumn trees from the workshop look out of place, and autumn in the northeast famously has lots of colours so having only yellow feels wrong! You could corner the autumn tree market on the workshop!

..................I need this is varying autumn colors like reds and oranges and just a few shades. It's so hard to find GOOD autumn trees that isn't 'lets plaster this one tree across the map to give that autumn theme!' x.x
