Lushify

This is a very simple yet effective mod that seeks to "lushify" Arma 3 by increasing the scale/density of forests by 50% (by default, percentage is customizable). This results in a much denser, yet still realistic look that allows for greater cover in forested areas. In addition, Lushify also offers a 3DEN module to perform these tasks within specific areas as well as the ability to do model swapping.

• Optional random scale distribution (makes foliage look more natural by slightly altering the scale within a range)

Q: How does this mod work?
A: It simply modifies the scale of all trees and bushes on mission load, as well as trees and bushes in specific areas if you use the 3DEN module.

Q: Can I customize the mod? What if I only want bigger trees or bigger bushes instead of both?
A: Yes, this mod has a fully localized CBA AddonOptions menu where you can adjust the scales separately to be applied to entire maps, as well as change any model swapping. You can also use the 3DEN module to customize specific map areas.

Q: Do I have to use the 3DEN module for this to work?
A: Nope! By default the +50% scale is applied to everything on the map via the mod's addon options settings. You can simply change these values to change the settings for entire maps. The 3DEN module is solely for scaling specific areas.

Q: How much will this affect performance?
A: It varies depending on your graphical settings and hardware, but any noticeable performance drop should be small at the default +50% setting.

Q: Does this mod break the hitboxes of the trees and bushes?
A: The hitboxes should still behave normally at the default +50% scale, no promises otherwise.

Q: Will this mod cause issues with other mods?
A: Highly unlikely unless those mods are also modifying the size of trees and bushes.

Q: How do I use the 3DEN module?
A: All you have to do is look in the "Environment" category of the modules menu, and look for the module named "Resize" with the Lushify logo. You can then place the module down, resize it to fit the area you want to affect, and change its properties to determine new scaling and/or model swapping.

Q: How do I set up model replacements?
A: The model replacement value in the options is an array of array pairs (a list of lists, essentially), where the first value in the pair is the path to the original model and the second value is the path to the new model:
You can then add more replacements by continuing the list of pairs with commas. Just be sure to use the full paths to the models you're swapping.

Q: How does the random scale distribution work?
A: The random scale distribution uses the "Minimum Scale Multiplier" and "Maximum Scale Multiplier" settings alongside your normal scale settings to generate random scaling differences between different objects. For example, if the minimum multiplier is 0.8, and the maximum is 1.3, the scales of trees and bushes will vary anywhere between 0.8x (80%) your scale settings to 1.3x (130%) your scale settings. This random value is generated using a normal (gaussian) distribution, which provides a natural looking level of randomness in the sizing of trees and bushes.

Q: Does it work in MP?
A: As of right now, no. The function this mod uses for scaling objects is incompatible with MP, and BI has not yet released a suitable MP-friendly alternative. If/when they do, I will implement it for MP functionality.

Q: Is the mod signed?
A: Yep, and the .bikey public key is included!

Q: Can I modify/repack/reverse-engineer/redistribute/etc. this mod?
A: Of course! The mod is open source on Github[github.com] and licensed under Apache 2.0[www.apache.org]. Though if you would like something to be added by me, feel free to suggest it!
