Linden Trees by MrMaison

Introducing a set of Linden Trees. Kinda generic but inspired by those found in Europe particularly Germany. The Linden is part of the Tilia family which have 30 species in Europe where they are called "Linden", North America where it is known as "Basswood" and in Asia. It is also known as a "Lime" tree. More in the wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilia
This set consist of a mature and young versions. The young ones are great for street decoration and yards.

Special thanks to AmipolizeiFunk for requesting this tree for his Berlin project and providing reference material that was very helpful.

STATS:
Linden Tree Young 996 tris 1024 textures.
Linden Tree 2644 tris 2048x1024 textures for the fine leaves.

I highly recommend Tree LOD Fix by TPB for better tree LODs https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1349895184&searchtext=

As usual, I strongly suggest Boformer's Random Tree Rotation mod
https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=556784825

Also BloodyPenguin's No Radioactive Mod http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=666425898
And Prop and Tree Anarchy http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=593588108

Sharp Textures mod really makes a difference in how the foliage looks in game http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=793176674

Please Rate if you like it. Thank you and Enjoy!

These trees are so useful in any European city build!
In Holland and Germany, they were often used to screen the windows from too-bright high sun in summer, while letting in the lower, weaker winter sun when the leaves fell.
For that they were espaliered and pollarded into a sort of raised hedge or living wall on legs, so you could still look out of the windows underneath, and they didn't take up too much space between the house and the road or garden.
They are still used the same way, in gardens or to line narrow streets, and might make a useful addition to the game.

They look like this in summer: https://dkpo4ygqb6rh6.cloudfront.net/APPELTERN_NL/imageresized/96195/6effdc37f89e639577f2a44b109600e0/1320_880_80_normaljpg/leilinde_tilia_europaea_pallida_leivorm.jpg

Searching for images of "leilinde" brings up many more, from the very young espaliered saplings to some really old and knotty ones: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=leilinde&t=h_&iar=images&iax=images&ia=images
