Thanks K,

I sent a PM. btw, what's the difference between CocoNutIngred1 and CocoNutFlora1?

P.S. I couldn't find a texture file for the Ginko ingredient or the Palm trees. There'll probably be a few other file discrepancies along the way.

P.P.S. There doesn't seem to be a separate texture for the Hibiscus plant trunks. I'm using the basic file (without the _n or Icon) but the trunk comes up partially coloured by the same colour as the flower. Yet the leaves have no separate texture and they've come up fine. ?(

P.P.P.S. The Stardust has me baffled.... ?(

1) CocoNutIngred1 is the ingredient coconut that you harvest from the CocoNutFlora1, after you shoot CocoNutFlora1 out of the palm tree and activate it. DO NOT do region generation with either of them, for they are both clutter havoked and not static - you'll end up with many bouncing coconuts everywhere. Read here for how they are used and the current limitations of the tree harvesting system I was previously working on (the answer is in one of my posts):

Region generating for southern Elsweyr

2) Ginko & Palm trees: If in doubt, redownload my resource pack from TESNexus, to get the textures and meshes. They should be untouched and in their pure form from TESNexus. I know textures and meshes get messed up along the way when handed from person to person..

3) The Hibiscus plant trunk uses the "introsewoodpost01.dds" texture found in the "textures\wood\..." Oblivion directory, so look in that directory for the texture. You might need to check the texture path in the nif to get the trunk to point to that texture instead.

4) Stargazer Lily: Yeah, that one's a little weird.... I made this flower before I realized two different plants made of same texture could share a texture map (newb beginnings), so there are two different texture maps, with similar flower textures on them. StarGazerLily01.nif uses the "stargazerlily01.dds" textures and the other nif uses the other texture.

Ooops! You said "StarDust" didn't you?? Ok, the stardust is the ingredient to the stargazer lilies. You know how the stargazer lilies glow at night with stars on their petals? Well the stardust is the name for some of the pollen or glowing dust found on the flower petals, and the pile of stardust also glows in the dark and twinkles.
