Use Tree Anarchy temporary fix for the patch 1.16.1-f2

Successor: Tree Anarchy

no longer compatible

Problem is. My cars my props my decals parts of the road and road trees parts of building are all flickering or vanishing when i zoom in

Wow. Never knew this existed

Thank you, Finwickle! Also, I totally agree DragonWolf; for steam games with large modding communities, the workshop can turn into a wasteland of dead mods and dead mods that were specifically made to update the first dead mods and so on. I wish the workshop were more optimized for mods that require constant updates etc. as they do in the C:S workshop

This mod make my trees flickering. Disabled.

the reason the trees flicker isnt because of switching between lods from what I can see. Im getting the flickering, its because certain trees have variants they switch between when placed. So one tree might have different sizes and it also has different shades of leaves it can possibly spawn with, so when u put that tree down 10 times in a row some are dark and some are light. Whats happening is that when viewed at a distance its constantly flickering through the different versions of the tree that can spawn when u place it, and because some have lighter leaves than others, it seems to flicker between dark and light. Thats whats going on, its not flickering between a low detail distance model and an up close model.

Dunno if thats helpful but just throwing it out there in case it helps.

Finwickle thanks for the info, the other does have newer update than this one

thanks finwickle, its been bugging me for a while this one! (I wish steam had a thing to say which versions they are compatible with, theres a LOT that never work anymore and its getting messy on the site.

The original mod has long been updated: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=556784825

I was always told that the flickering only happened with vanilla trees, but it seems any workshop tree attached to a building does it too. Used a tree-replacer mod but any lot-based tree will flicker. Such an odd problem. Random rotation should be part of the vanilla game!

Haven't bothered with this mod as it seems to be broken as fuck. It's obviously a case of another line of code being changed in an update that Judazzz was unable to find

Had to unsubscribe. Tree flickering too annoying.

I just had the exact same problem that martin_raccoon experienced. I use Loading Screen Mod too.

OK, so I just resubscribed to this AND loading screen mod. It seems to work for now.

For some reason every prop and tree started flickering to me. All of the cars are gone. I looked it up on Alphabets search engine and found it was most likely this mod (like the old one especially, but also this), so I unsubbed but the problem still persists. I know that you don't download mods without risks, so i just thought I'd let you know about these problems for _potential_ work, and yes, I read the notes ;)

It's a problem the the trees switch from main model to LOD (low detail model) when the camera moves away from the trees. Unfortunately there's not much that can be done about it as far as fixing the mod itself (I can't find the bit of code that is responsible for this), but I did mention a few work-arounds in the mod description you may want to try.

I have the same problem.

Why all the flickering? its very distracting.

@::::Ghost:: - nice to hear that the mod is working well!

Also bei mir funktioniert alles, habe gerade eine Map mit vielen Vanilla Tannen & Bäumen .. und viel gezoommt .. kein flackern.. - all fine for me, works with mass transit

@ R@ - please read the description (notes 1, 2 and 4, and the tip posted at the end :)

We need this updated for MT.

The mod rotates trees as intended, but it has a bug that causes vanilla trees that are part of buildings/assets to flicker (reason unknown, I can't find the reason why this happens).
Replacing all vanilla trees solves this, and there are a few mods make this pretty easy for you, like TPB's Vanilla Trees Remover or my own Prop it Up! . The only other alternative is either to put up with the flickering, or to unsubscribe from this mod...

No the mod is still broken with flashing trees

Compatible with Mass Transit?

@KrassPack: I'm aware for some the mod is not working correctly. Please read the description (especially notes 1, 2 and 4) :)

Don´t work => all tree are flicker

there is a major problem the trees flicker in the parks while the mod is on and it craets a zone were the trees change color from dark to light green i hope you can fix it i love your work!!!
Thanks for your efforts.

* phew * :D

Ah nevermind its prop unlimiter

Uh oh,custom trees disappear for me on certain angles!

thanks lol :). Okay I see.

@◎ (awesome user name! :D) - when Natural Disasters was released, CO also made some changes to the game's core code. One of them caused the original mod's code to break, which caused an error. Adapting the mod code to the new game code solved the issue for me.

But there are certainly weird things going on: the fact that the old version apparently still works for some (or perhaps even lots of) players, but also that my updated version works for some but not everyone is pretty baffling. I can't really find an explanation for this, or even what may lie at the heart of the issue - this mod, another mod, the game's code, yet something else?

One thing I can think of that the error was caused by a code change in the actual DLC itself (do you own ND?), but that would strike me as odd because every DLC is accompanied by a game patch that every players gets, irregardless of whether they have the DLC. And typically it is this patch that contains the changes in the game's code, not the DLC.

Hey Judazzz, how is this even different from the old random tree rotation? I have it and it works perfectly fine, no errors whatsoever.

@Big Bad Nonja - thank you very much for the invitation, but I have sworn off Facebook quite some time ago (for various reasons). If I ever reconsider that decision, I'll be sure to look you guys up!

Thanks for the answer @Judazzz. Appreciate it :) Btw, has anyone invited you to the SkylinesNation FB group? Most of the major asset maker/script modders are there, and about 6500 active players. https://www.facebook.com/groups/SkylinesNation/ if you're interested. Great place for feedback, testing and community :D

@Big Bad Nonja - I suspect Boformer was/is too busy with real life things to be able to update all his mods and imo. real life always gets prevalence over what goes on online). And to be fair, although my updated mod does indeed work with Natural Disasters (that was the one-line fix), it still has the same tree flickering problem as the original. A problem that isn't nearly as easy or quick to fix...

I have mode this simple guide for people to follow that are using worksop trees. As I seen a lot of people just dont know that the issue with flickering is easy solved https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=912847630 . @gravage and @judazzz thanks for the comments.

So, was Bo just too lazy to type the new code? Why didn't he just update his mod with your one re-written line and update? We really don't need two versions, just his updated one :P ;) :)

@gravage - gotcha! Thank you for the feedback :)

@Judazzz: Yes, my vanilla trees did flicker but I've replaced all vanilla trees as of now.

@pdelmo - I think this is because this is a re-release of an existing mod, made suitable for the Natural Disasters DLC (so those who do not own that may still use the old one...) However, this version is not without problems, because it may cause vanilla trees to flicker, which is pretty irritating and distracting. So I can understand why it doesn't have the huge subscriber count as some other mods have. Besides that, I'm pretty pleased that my other mods, which unlike this one I did make from scratch, have much more subscribers ;)

@gravage - have you notice any wildly flickering vanilla trees when zooming out since you subscribed to this mod? Or have you replaced all vanilla trees already?
The reason I'm asking is because I'm curious whether the flickering tree issue affects everyone, or just a "lucky" few (I'm not actively looking for a fix, but any tidbit of new info could cause an unexpected brain-fart that does bring me closer to a fix).

@pdelmo: Heheh ... yeah, I always skipped passed this mod (and others concerned with detailing) because I was never interested in visual detail, but as of late I've been inspired by the incredibly beautiful cities some people are featuring on their YouTubes channels (I learned about you on Pres's channel) using assets like yours (you are an incredible artist, by the way). I have to admit, once I subscribed to this mod I was amazed at what a difference it made. So, don't lose hope my friend, more of us are coming round to the detail side ... ( ;

Only 10,000 odd Subscribers this makes me sick!!!!

BTW: as an alternative you could give a different mod called Prop it Up! a try, which allows you to replace all vanilla trees with Workshop ones - this also removes the flickering (it only happens to vanilla trees, for some reason). If you do, please read the mod's description closely so you understand what you are doing, because it's a pretty powerful tool.

Apparently the mod works for some (me included), and not for others.
In the mod description I wrote that I simply uploaded the mod as-is , which basically means that what you see is what you get (and support is only limited to game-breaking errors). I only made a few small changes to the code which did the trick for me (and quite a few others as well, apparently), but unfortunately I have no intention to give the code a thorough check-up, let alone completely rewrite it from scratch.

So for the time being I have no real intention to invest time in RTR, as some of my other mods have a higher priority. This may change over time, but for now it basically boils down to the mod either working for you (which is great), or not (for which I'm very sorry, but alas, that's the way the cookie crumbles...)

I just got this mod and went in the game. when I zoom out a certain distance the trees are flickering. unsub for nopw and will check back later.

how do you get it working?
