Adds 3D hbrid trees to all versions of Aspens Ablaze

Consider adding a DynDOLOD mesh rule for these aspens to be loaded with CR patch

Nexus file updated to account for TexGen bug that will be fixed once sheson releases his next update to DynDOLOD 3.

Please re-download.

My testing showed that this aspen tree LOD if used as 3d LOD can cause upwards of 30fps performance hit. Users can simply create a rule for treeaspen to use Billboards instead for this tree. Remember that order matters, so make sure you have treeaspen above tree, for example. For reference, my DynDOLOD output was about 2gb smaller after making this change.

I vote we accept this one, if the parent mod is accepted.

[z929669]

Agree

Agreed.

I updated the wiki instructions to merge the "Aspens Ablaze - No Interior Modifications" Optional File

[z929669]

AA was updated, so this mod only works with v1.03 and v2.32.

Updated mod page instructions

I added some clarification about compatibility with the DynDOLOD add-on until I get that mod updated.

[z929669]

I should have updated LOD models for the new version uploaded sometime this weekend.

[z929669]

Mod updated for latest version of the main mod.

Wiki instructions updated.

Of course, Mindflux decided to update his mod immediately after I uploaded the LOD update ... I have yet to determine if he made plugin changes, model changes or both, so presumably, this mod will not work entirely with AA 2.34.

Sounds like just plugin changes from the file notes.

Sounds like it, but if trees are floating, he may have sunk the models into negative z-axis on the affected models. Regardless, I may need to update the plugins, since he still isn't updating tree object bounds for his trees. That will be simpler to update, but it's probably not much work either way.

He asked people to continue reporting issues though, so more changes could come.
