Windswept Cattails | 1 LI | 12x Tex | Swaying Speeds | 13 Meshes
These unobtrusive lil corndog topped Cattail reeds are perfect for tucking along waterways, underneath dense tree patches, separating spaces, lining pathways, and so much more.
Like many of our foliage options, these mesh plants are meant to enhance and add subtly to your space, not be the center stage. Low lag optimized so you can have more for less land impact or script usage. No more bare areas! Your imagination is limitless with the variety included~

!!!CAUTION!!!
I went out of my way to include these very large/long 1LI "X Meshes" for those who needed a lot of filler with very low prim limits.
HOWEVER:
• X Meshes do not have multiple LODs.
-------> This means that for any distance they are viewed beyond approx 30m on LL Default/60m Firestorm Default/ 120m 4.0 LOD Factor... They disappear entirely.
◘ Solution: Do not use X Meshes for areas you want consistent performance.
• X Meshes do not resize well.
◘ Solution: Use non-X Meshes for resizing.
You would want to use them for:
• Areas of a sim people do not need to render from afar like caves or hidden areas.
• Skyboxes.
• Close up photo backdrops.
• To fill out existing areas with higher density in addition to other foliage.
As a summary, you do not want to use them standalone unless you're fine with people beyond 30m possibly seeing that area as totally empty.
AS WITH MOST OF MY FOLIAGE:
• If you link them to each other, be sure to remove the script in ALL except 1 or you will be provided with ~unpredictable~ results.
• Linked trees and bushes will all be the same for Preset Theme buttons, randomization no longer applies on an individual basis.
• Don't link other items which are not included specifically in this box to the foliage while they have scripts, or you will be provided with ~unpredictable~ and ♦PERMANENT♦ results that you may not like that may or may not ♫ruin♫ these other items.
• Changing the name or description of any included object or linked object from what they ship with will provide you with ~unpredictable~ results.
Thanks,

- Randomize texture change across the whole sim or all the same
Disappointing
These are not sculpted cattails, they're flat prims, criss-crossed not what i was expecting and unusable when i have people walking through the marshes and so close up to the planting. Even if i was looking for this style of non-mesh plants, the edges are all jaggedy. They work from a distance.
The movement's nice...
finally
Searching for this last year and couldn't find the decent one with affordable price. Thank you for making this. Another must have item from DDD for your lovely pond
