Flora Enhancement Mod v1.2

Users who are viewing this thread

Awww bookoos. The trees look great in the screenshots except for me they just come out as white clumps of brightness.
 
Then you messed something up with the textures.

Ah, well, that's good to know. That might after all be the source of my grass transparency problems... and it sure would improve performance noticeably.

Well, seeing how simply using the flora shader doesn't work there has to be a special trick or it's just not possible to make a face 2-sided. Did anyone check whether native meshes use it? If I recall correctly, trees would have the double tricount of what they seemed to have when I exported them, or what they seemed to have...

The native viking ship icon has a sail that uses 2-sided texturing. Actually, the whole ship seems to be 2-sided as the normals aren't all calculated outside. If I'm not mistaken the banner flag icons are also similar.

Though when I looked at its material settings I can't tell what's there to indicate that it's using 2-sided texturing.
 
I love the new trees and flora, gives the game a fresh look to it. But there's one problem I'm having and I haven't heard of anyone else complain about it.

I've been playing for about 50 days admiring the mod and decided to check out the rest of the terrains. Plains, mountainous, snow, etc. It works perfect until I try to go into battle on a snow terrain. After charging into battle I get a black screen and the game crashes.

I've spent over an hour reinstalling/uninstalling the game and the mod making sure I've done both correctly. I have experimented with the other mods I'm using thinking they're somehow clashing together but they aren't. I have made sure that it was indeed the Flora Mod crashing my game. Even after a fresh M&B copy and only installing Flora it still crashed on the snow terrain.

Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me?

This might be a really stupid question but how do you install this to work with other mods? Because It works fine for me on native but on mods now I still end up with untextured tree models...I've tried running the install to install to the mods directory but still no textures  :???:

Mods that use their own tree tree textures are the problem. The changed textures don't get applied to the new models.

Glad to hear it's fixed. Hopefully someone will be able to shed some light on getting double-sided textures to work so this mod can be optimized further further.
 
killkhergit, this is very nice but...

I think you should state it modifies native files, so people should make backup copies of those files prior to installing it.

It would also be nice to post a list of all modified and added files, so people could know better what it does and what it changes.

The trees look very nice, thanks for sharing.
 
Sorry for the double post.

I already tweaked your textures in order to make them blend better with my own custom textures, and this is the result:

Nicely done! Do you have any other "enhancing" mods installed? Is it GE 2.5 on your sreenies?

Thanks Damon. No, those are my custom textures which will go into TLD (next release). I'm planning to release them as a separate pack for native, in case people like them.

this mod is very nice I just think that the leaves are a but tilled,cloned
I don't know how it's called in english but it looks like you made 3 4 faceswith diferent rotations ,put the texture on them,and you put that  4 faces over the tree but anyway it's an awsome work I always thinkend to redone all m&b flora

do you have interest in some day,in the future, make the ''Flora Enhancement Mod 2.0'' with me?
this is a secret stuff that I'm showing to you:

this mod conflicts with the "polished buildings" mod. trees appear white when buildings are installed later. and when I reinstall this mod, then the new buildings appear white instead...
 
Oh, how come I didn't see this? Looking very nice, downloading right away. Hope you can find out how to get the game using two sided faces.
