A port of Absolute Nature 4 (originally made for Call of Pripyat) for Last Day, it overhauls the geometry of those 3 maps with lots of new trees & bushes
►
If you have no idea about it, Absolute Nature 4 is not just a simple re-textures mod like the old versions. it does a full geometry replacement and insert hundreds of new trees & bushes in those 3 maps resulting into an eye-catching, overgrown environment.
This video will demonstrate everything:
The style used here is "Misery" since it relies on Last Day default textures. any missing trees textures files and gaps has been fixed (hopefully).

- Doesn't require a new game but before installing the mod you should do a small safety procedure: IF your current save has been made inside one of those 3 maps, load it and go outside of them, do a hardsave there then install the mod.
- The meshes are optimized. however, there is a slight chance for an increased stutter on low-end devices.
- Compatible with everything.
- Supports all Last Day versions.
Installation:
Throw (gamedata) and (database) folders in your main game directory, and overwrite the files.
Note: Since this mod touch the base map files inside (database/maps) folder, It's better if you install this using JSGE in case you want to uninstall the mod in the future without messing things around.
Enjoy!
Awh man this is awesome! I love your work Tronex keep it up! Are you planning on add more maps to the list?
Nope, because:
1- this is not my work, just a simple port of an existing CoP mod.
2- Creating this for each map is possible but will require months of work, besides i would get busy with other mods and stuff.
Another excellent work by Tronex yet again!
Tronex I am using the "White Power" mod from the Addons pack that Last Day team includes. Its the snow mod. Could I use everything except the textures for this, so I have the improved mesh map but keeping the snow textures?
Any retextures mod can work without an issue (i use autumnal winds for example), but im not sure if it will take effect on those maps.
Give it a try.
Damn this is awesome man, thanks.
Is this compatible with Spawns & A-life Revamp addon?
It's compatible with everything. guess i need to clarify that in the description.
Haha, funny and skillful. Look forward to checking this out. Thanks for the great work you do for the stalker community. AN4 is legendary and having it in LD is sweet!
Would recommend that instead of using this you use Absolute Nature Redux or Autumnal Winds, along with Structures Redux. They're CoC mods technically but don't appear to be giving me issues... yet... They extend the Absolute Structures and Nature though.
You kinda misunderstood the point of this.
Absolute Nature and Autumnal Winds for CoC are pure texture replacements, they don't do more than that. this mod on the other hand add alot of new meshes and trees and change the map layout.
This will give you issues if your PC can't handle more pressure.
Gotcha, I thought it built upon Absolute Nature and therefore newer/more up to date than AN4. There's a lot of mods that are reposted between CoC, Misery, CoM, and Last Day making it hard to know what's always the best thing to use. So if this is a geometry overhaul and Autumnal Winds is purely textures, would they be compatible? Also, any recommendations for graphic mod setups in Last Day? Currently core Last Day, Autumnal, Toska and Artefact Overhaul. New to Stalker modding and restarted due to incompatibilities a lot lol.
All textures mode are compatible, i use Autumnal Winds myself with this.
Imho, the best looking zone i got so far was by using Autumnal Winds, Absolute Structures, S.W.T.C Advanced. S.W.T.C Advanced is amazing but it will eat your rams, so keep that in mind.
If you suffer from that, you can use the normal edition of SWTC.
I'm not sure about Toska but i heard that its a heavy mod as well, it might be bad on performance.
Sweet, thanks a lot Tronex and for the mods! Also, Toska doesn't appear to be affecting my performance much but I did run into a big black missing texture NPC the other day, would recommend everyone at least try it still or get big nubs pack. Didn't know about SWTC advanced, been using CoC version of regular SWTC so I'll check it out!
Would You mind uploading Your load-order? I have been modding the game for about a week now and haven´t even started the game because I keep finding awesome mods.
Maybe I can just mirror You load-order and get started already! :) I am very eager to play.
Thanks in advance, thank You for Your hard work!
Take Care.
For some reason the big reed like grass in Zaton and some of the bushes are really low res and weird colours. dunno if its due to this or autumnal winds
Might be some of the textures are low-res, can you show me some pics?
Imgur.com When you get close it doesn't look too bad, but from even a few meters away the grey grass looks ugly and low res.
Yea would love to replace that as it looks funky
Can you import the changes from LFO mod? It adds more trees to most of all Clear Sky Levels

Does it work on CoC without Last Day?
I'm not sure, on paper it should work fine.
You might want to install Autumnal Winds mod first, then this above it.
Any idea why i get blue textures? Imgur.com
