               ... when I went to bed I was thinking "if you can add or remove a texture with the activation animation, can you add or remove foliage as well?" So, if you'd make a couple of trees with these animations lot / foliage options:

On - Summer/Spring leaves
Off - Autumn leaves
Closed- Winter leaves (snowy leaves)
Open - No leaves

If you get a nice collection of those (all with the same tag), you could make a script that loops through your whole module and sets all the trees to the right season with PlayAnimation. Summer trees on snow would look retarded, of course, but I guess we get the point?

               I can remove/ add the foilage too, but I only use on/off for that. It´s getting a bit complicated what you want Just a ghost and I´ll try what I can.  

p.s. got your file;)

               O, the foliage remover is just a general idea that popped up in my mind. For now I am very happy with the dirt patch on/off thinghy.

               I meant I can add one foilage type to the animation too, but not all seasons so to say. So summer or winter is cool with me. so you basically have a summer and winter set.

The on/off part could work, but a placeable can be on and closed at the same time, or off and open, etc.
You'd get summer and winter leaves at the same time.

               Maybe on - off could be flowers - no flowers.
closed-open could be leaves/no leaves.

               For now I just need the ground bit, because I'd like PLC's to be static if possible. So, default with ground plate, deactivated without. I'll use the latter setting only when the ground plate gives interference, or when I want to place thorns on a hill side. Is that possible?

My comment about the seasons was just a "wouldn't it be nice...?" in general. Later on I remembered that you can't have static trees if you use this trick, and then it suddenly didn't seem to be such a clever idea after all.

ps. Is your forum language set to 'German', Zwerkules? I am getting a German topic reply notification for your post. I suspect a BioWare script slave made some funky error with "to" and "from" when it came to notification replies.

It was set to German. I didn't know this could cause problems. I changed it to 'English' now since I never read the German forums anyway.

               Haha, I am not allergic to German. It was just a bit weird, that's all.

               I am going to apply the same scheme to pine trees... on snow the extra dirt looks pretty cool (ever seen snow BELOW a snowy pine tree?).

Any progress with the animation, Baba?

               If you have a use for the thorn thicket I made for my rural tileset, I could turn it into a placeable.
