Those with a keen eye (or those who have simply laid their eyes upon the PS4 or PC versions) may have noticed that a significant amount of vegetation was stripped from the Nintendo Switch version of this game.
This mod aims to restore all of the missing vegetation (and some trees in certain maps) with minimal to no performance penalty.
Installation
Simply extract the zip and copy its contents to the root directory of your SD card.
The archive is set up to be a simple drag and drop replacement compatible with the Atmosphere CFW, but it should theoretically work with any CFW provided romfs replacements are possible and the folder structure is the same (romfs/data/plt/).
User guide
The majority of zones in the game will maintain their 30 FPS performance. However, a few specific maps with dense grass may cause minor dips in framerate, ranging between 25 and 28 FPS, but only in certain areas and specific camera angles. These spots were discovered during intentional performance testing where the maximum amount of grass was visible.
In general, you should not encounter any significant performance issues while traversing through zones. The framerate can also drop slightly during combat in areas with high volumes of grass, but the game is still very playable during these rare instances.
