Features

Forest Brush lets you paint realistic and varied forest, grasslands, gardens or just patches of plants with ease and convenience.

Background

This is an update to the amazing Forest Brush mod by TPB. Unfortunately he doesn’t seem to be maintaining his mods anymore and I could no longer use it with the P&P DLC update. So I worked on this for myself and have released it in case others find it useful.

What have we done

The main thing I have done is fixed the brush not appearing bug from the original and also tidied up the loading code to try and reduce issues this mod was having with loading order and other mods.

I have tested it while running most of the common mods, LSM Revisited, Traffic Manager, Tree Anarchy, Prop Anarchy, Node Controller, Move It! etc.. and had no issues. If you have any issues with it then let me know and I will try to fix them. I will definitely need your outputlog.txt file and a list of installed mods.

Usage Tips

Hold down CTRL while moving the mouse and the brush will rotate.
Hold down ALT while moving the mouse to change the size.
Right click when placing a single tree will cycle through the current brushes trees.

Trouble shooting

Trees keep getting painted on the roads and buildings
– This is caused by the "Collision" setting of the Fine Roads Tool/Network Anarchy being OFF. Turn it back ON and the trees wont be painted on objects any more

I don’t see any trees in the list
– This is because you have selected "Brush" mode instead of "All Trees" mode.
Brush mode will only show the current trees for the selected brush, all trees mode will list all loaded trees.
You can change mode by clicking on the button next to the search box under the tree list. If the button shows a brush then it is in "Brush" mode, if it shows several trees then it is in "All Tree" mode.
