Looks like a promising optional enhancement to EVT and vanilla trees in general

Doesn't look right with EVT. Causes duo-tone branch colors, darker on top.

The color on this is off and too flat, imo. There are a could before/after compares in the user images. It's a stark change from vanilla.

I already redid the pines in v2 of EVT from scratch. They are 100% vanilla; corrected using AI tools and, color correction and tone matching using PS, and then hand painted where needed. EVT meshes cause some coloration differences due to vertex colors in use.

I just tested this, and I agree. Not bad, but it doesn't work well at all with EVT Lush, particularly the LOD wo ENB. Tops of pines are much darker than bottom. Coloring is similar to Vurt4 branches.

Not worth grabbing compares, as it's obvious it's not a fit for 2.0.0
