I think the colors are just right. I think it's best to leave it up to the artist.

+1.  Great body of work.  Also give you the highest complement for addressing an aspect that no one else seemed interested in developing!  I will enjoy this on a flight from Indiana to Maryland late tomorrow.  I may have to adjust my planned altitude and resulting fuel burn.  Lower, and slower, just to take this in.

Mine is on: D:\MSFS\Official\Steam\fs-base\vegetation (It's maybe because I have a custom install). Inside there are 4 files of the same type (.xml - type).

Thanks, mine was in (exactly) the same location, drive letter and all.  Thanks for saving me the search.

A cold beer should be enough for the savings 🤣

Welcome, Ed

It works great, considering the limitations on seasons that is imposed by the sim presently. 

Big Bear, 10th of November. Thank you for the mod, looks great !

To avoid replacing "core" file, isn't it possible to create something in the Community folder as we did for other mod (like the trees size weeks ago) ? By creating a similar community folder structure (as the original Official\OneStore\fs-base\vegetation), we overide core file replacement and we can manage the MSFS update (btw today)

1. A folder structure : Community\vegetation
2. A simple manifest.json and layout.json

As it was done weeks ago to correct tree size ? For example:

Manifest.json:

{
  "dependencies": [],
  "content_type": "CORE",
  "title": "",
  "manufacturer": "",
  "creator": "community fix",
  "package_version": "0.1.80",
  "minimum_game_version": "1.7.12",
  "release_notes": {
    "neutral": {
      "LastUpdate": "",
      "OlderHistory": ""
    }
  },
  "total_package_size": "000000000014658"
}

layout.json:

{
  "content": [
    {
      "path": "vegetation/10-asobo_biomes.xml",
      "size": 62523,
      "date": 132387590510000000
    }
  ]
}

It's very soft in Portland area:

A big thank you !

Beautiful. Thanks for posting them. 

If anyone can make it so it works in community folder please do so. I am not programmer so I don't know how.

 

Amazing job mate!

Thank you. I too would love this as a mod to add to the community folder.

Send me the folder structure tht you created and .json via PM so that I can test by dropping into community folder.

Thanks.

I just tested. It works. As far as I understand, whatever you put into your community, as soon as it matches the core structure, what you put there will override the default files. Cool for the upcoming today udpate 😉

Here's the link of the .zip file with just the structure and two fake (but working) layout and manifest files : click here (without the 10-asobo_biomes.xml file that I don't have the right to share). Then, just put the modified "10-asobo_biomes.xml" file provided by @BijanStudio into the vegetation folder.\

Community\Fall\vegetation\10-asobo_biomes.xml
Community\Fall\layout.json
Community\Fall\manifest.json

Let me know if it can help.

Cool ambiance, isn't it ?

Thanks for the modder and the supporters. It works very well in the Community folder.

Works here too in the Community folder. Thanks for the excellent idea, that way we don't have to modify stock MSFS assets.

What I've been noticing though, is that with the mod the size of the trees are modified (way bigger compared to summer/spring, I mean the green ones) depending on the region. Please report if others are getting the same.

Thanks to the contributors and of course, to the original mod developer.

Cheers, Ed

Looks pretty good. I made some changes for me, so I have whole decidous forrests turn reddish and yellow, not only a percentage of trees. Then I added some color to 15_asobo_biomes_cities.xml because I did not like the green patches in some residential areas here in Germany.

Like this:

<BiomeRule name="Deciduous_Cities" speciesInstancesPerHectar="700" onlyArtificialAreas="yes">
    <!-- Low deciduous trees in artificial areas -->
        <SpeciesList>
            <Species name="deciduous_small"/>
            <Color r="3.4" g="0.8" b=".7"/>   orange/red                             <-------------------------------- here, I just inserted the line
            <Species name="scrub" spawnRatio="0.75"/>
            <Species name="scrub_big" spawnRatio="0.15"/>
            <Species name="shrub" spawnRatio=".25"/>
        </SpeciesList>

One question remains: Is it possible to change the color of more distant woodland, because it looks a bit strange when forrests change color when approaching them.

In spring I am going to color a small percentage of trees in bright pink. 🙂

Thank you for showing us how this can be achieved.
