What This Mod Does

A small collection of fixes, optimizations, patches and additions for the awesome mod Grumbledook Ivy by Ababmer. Here is what exactly is modified:

Removed all unused and duplicated vertices from all meshes, cutting the count roughly in half. Also fixed all collisions with missing targets and wrong block order.

1. Added support for some missed ivy meshes used by other mods, for visual consistency.
2. Added seasonal variants for Seasons of Skyrim.
3. Added a swap file to give Rift ivies an orange tint.
4. Added 2 patches: Grand Solitude and Riverwood Covered Bridge from Northern Roads addition files.

Here is an example of the vertex optimization, the improvement is drastic for performance:

Important: even though the FOMODs are the same type and this mod provides optimization, the main Grumbledook Ivy file remains required. Simply ensure this mod loads after it to win every conflict. Modified textures are currently in 2K only, 4K may come in the future.

⚠ Still a work in progress, it might not be perfect in the first versions

Installation

Download and install the mod like any regular mod. Make sure it wins every conflict in order to work as intended.

Compatibility

Compatible with everything, creates new meshes totally independently.
