What players say
Some recent comments mention pixelated textures and odd shadows on 1.61, trees that pop in and out at around 200 meters, and some ask for a better LOD. If you notice something like that, try disabling other graphics or vegetation mods.
Before installing it
It takes up about 7.5 GB, so you need free disk space, and it may demand more from your graphics card than the stock vegetation.
