On the hot files currently, this mod fixes meshes that are too bright in the shadows. Tree portion is incompatible with EVT, but the ice and plant fixes appear to be viable.

Worthy for testing

Just guessing because I haven't looked, but my thought is this is probably just checking the "receives shadows" flag on the meshes. Would need to look. If so, making any patches should be super easy.

I've installed this, the patches for the mods in the Guide, and placed it in alphabetical order in Models & Textures.

The whole thing? This mod seems to have "3D Snowberries" ... misnamed for HD snowberries?? And 3D Junipers ... I could've sworn we had a juniper mod accepted, but I cannot find it.

We have both those mods accepted.

 I have had this on in testing for a while without issue:

1. Modular
2. Skip Trees
3. Install only 3D Snowberries and 3D Juniper
4. Install Artic and Landscape And Water Fixes
5. Select nothing on creatures
6. Place in alphabetical order in Models & Textures

This is a nice fix yeah. Great compatibility too as mentioned.

Wiki instructions updated

I've been using this too. It's great. I install all possible options and let it overwrite everything - like Flickering Mesh Fixes. It can overwrite everything because it incorporates the changes of the meshes it conflicts with (when FOMOD compatibility options are selected).

FOMOD options:

• Modular
• Flora + Trees + Ice + Creatures
• Vanilla Flora + 3D Snowberries + 3D Junipers
• None Trees + Assorted Mesh Fixes + SMIM + Aspens Ablaze Autumn
• Arctic + Landscape and Water Fixes + Unofficial Material Fix

Before: STEP Base (vanilla exterior lighting) + DVLaSS > After: STEP Base + DVLaSS + Fixed Mesh Lighting

I agree. Go ahead and add this one to the ModList. I haven't caught up with mesh-override optimizations at this point.

This one is just in M&T in order.
