Nice work! Can you please make one without the bamboo? I like the original bamboo trees :)

Great job man!!! the ape kows his trees, have you considered making one just for the cut trees, leaving the rest vanilla?:terraria:
mini_lancer 28 Oct, 2017 @ 8:47am 
I think the vanilla pine has indeed changed! I disabled your mod for a bit and saw this instead https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1183454245

Can you make a mod with reduced trees like to 60% size? Not too short like pussywood.

I like the slight change. Makes my game world that much more interesting. Thanks for this.

@ruiben: Thanks! :) Regarding the pines, I blurred the edges a bit to make them somewhat .. prickly. As far as I know the vanilla trees didnt change.

Your work's realy slick man, im subscribed to most of it, just a question... did vanilla ver. trees got updated? normal and snow pine trees are shadowed at their left side and makes them easy to distinguish specially in snow. Looked in ver history but i couldnt find it :(

Very well done with the bamboo!
Czarodziej Adrenochromowy 21 Jun, 2015 @ 6:31am 
good job!
Kaffeeaffe  [author] 20 Jun, 2015 @ 7:36am 
Nope, unfortunately not since I get an error while trying to upgrade :/ I'm sure the devs come up with a fix shortly.

Does it work with new patch?

Thats pretty cool

Sorry, nevermind! Didn't fully read the bamboo description.
Lord Of Erebus 7 May, 2015 @ 6:59pm 
Just to confirm, this mod also changes the bamboo texture, right? I'm just wondering, because you've got two separate mods for bamboo and forests, so I'm wondering if I need to subscribe to both.

you are good jungle master
Kaffeeaffe  [author] 28 Mar, 2015 @ 4:46pm 
That's quite simple, here are the steps:
1) right-click on 'age of empires 2' in your steam library
2) click on properties, and there on the 'local files' tab and then on the 'browse local files' button
3) a window should pop open, there you double click on the 'data' folder and afterwards on the 'slp' folder.
4) extract the downloaded files in this folder and you're done :)

Since there seems to be no guide about that procedure here on steam and it's a fairly common question, I guess I'll write a small guide with some screenshots tomorrow.

can you upload a video guide on manual installation? I havent had a comp in yrs since the vista days and now I am dealing with 8.1
Kaffeeaffe  [author] 26 Mar, 2015 @ 3:49am 
@RaphaniacZX: If there's some demand for it, I'd do it. I could also make the trees semi-transparent (in default size, or in the smaller size) if ppl want so.

Now it looks at HD
RaphaniacZX 23 Mar, 2015 @ 3:56pm 
Think you could make a pussywood version?
julianbaba4 22 Mar, 2015 @ 5:40pm 
I see, that's ok, thanks for the info :)
Kaffeeaffe  [author] 22 Mar, 2015 @ 8:01am 
@RounDawG: With this mod no, there shouldn't be any issues since it's only a graphical mod. With other mods, who change the data files such issues usually arise.

@julianbaba4: I had a look into it, from a technical point of view, 'ice 2' and 'ice' (for example) use the same texture, hence if i change that one the other will be changed too :/
But big thanks for suggesting anyway! I guess I'll make a texture replacement sooner or later :)
RounDawG 22 Mar, 2015 @ 7:39am 
if you download these will this mess up your multiplayer ive had other experiences where othere players where not able to play with me cause it said i had a different version?
julianbaba4 22 Mar, 2015 @ 5:36am 
If you decide to make more terrain/forest mods, I suggest replacing the following (HD / Forgotten) terrains:

> Grass Foundation - Looks the same as "Grass Barren", but isn't as fine when placed.
> Grass Other - Looks the same as "Grass".
> Ice 2 - Looks the same as "Ice".
> Ice Beach - Looks the same as "Ice".
> Forest - Looks the same as "Oak Forest".
> Snow Foundation - Looks the same as "Snow Dirt".

I have no idea what these terrains do other than look exactly like some of the others in the game, hence why they are pointless (Ice 2 seems to block ships, but not completely since they get by just fine along the shoreline).

If there really is something unique or important about these terrains, and that they shouldn't be removed/replaced, then let me know coz I'm not too sure :P

Other than that they are pretty much free slots :)

You're welcome, glad you like it! :)
julianbaba4 19 Mar, 2015 @ 11:15pm 
It looks awesome! Thank you very much! :D

Sure thing, here you go: Enhanced Bamboo
julianbaba4 19 Mar, 2015 @ 6:39am 
I love what you did with the Bamboo trees!!! That's exactly what they should of looked like.
I always thought the original bamboo looked too short, yellow and dead.

I would really appreciate it if you could make a separate mod for the HD Forgotten that only changed the bamboo trees! That would be great, keep up the good work! :D
