Performance: Significantly better performance than all other grass mods, including Cathedral Landscapes, allowing for higher density and more areas with grass. At default settings (imingrasssize=50), the performance is matched to Cathedral Landscapes (imingrasssize=60), which was matched to unmodded Skyrim. You can understand how I was able to accomplish this by reading one of my previous reddit posts on grass performance studies.
Compatibility: -Overwrite other grass mods with this mod. -Overwrite Cathedral - 3D mountain flowers with this mod. -Landscape fixes for grass mods is compatible but not necessary, as this mod implements its own fix. Explanation here. -Created for and tested in VR.
