[REQ] More Grass Density

Post » Fri May 18, 2012 6:25 am

As many of you will certanely know, in Oblivion you could increase the density of the grass by modifying the iMinGrassSize=x command.

Just like in Oblivion, in Skyrim.ini you can add iMinGrassSize under the [GRASS] section and it does work, but it only reduces the density of the grass, and does not increase it.

For example, if I put iMinGrassSize=100, i'd have very sparse grass - close to none. Reducing this number to around 50-40 makes it so the game renders the same grass as default. Reducing it more has no effect.
No matter if I put iMinGrassSize=20, 10 or even 0: I always get the same amount of grass.

While this can be useful to someone, as it boosts the fps, some others, like me, would like to have more dense grass to provide more cover for the terrain textures, which in some cases are really hideous (even when modded).

Does anyone know how it can be done? And, more importantly, CAN it be done?

Looks like Density of Grass itself is controlled via Density Setting under each grass type itself..

You could use tessnip and then load up skyrim.esm , and make a new esp ->add skyrim has a master to that new esp -> then find grass group -> cut from skyrim.esm then paste into your new plugin then save your plugin..

Then use FNVEdit load up skyrim.esm and your plugin. Then find the density settings under each grass type , right click edit, and change, then after changes are exit fnvedit and save..move plugin back to skyrim data folder and select under data launcher..

May be just faster for me to make plugin for you and some else to edit the values and play around with it..
