Ferris seems to be working on updating OwlChemist's mods. as of writing this, they're missing most of the "perspective" series (including this mod), but it's worth checking if you're seeing this in the future (and you don't use ReGrowth):

1.5

update??

1.5?

same problem as @VoidLord

save game compatible?

would be amazing if these worked with the Star Wars Biomes

I'm having a bug... so i have a freaking HUGE animal in front of a tree, but the tree is drawn in front of the animal. the actual size is one tile but its body is huge so it spills out onto other tiles, like the thrumbo

I get other weird objects appearing in front of pawns, not just trees

if you use Camigo's Majestic Trees it makes them bigger but also hides the trees under your mouse

Is there a simple way to toggle it? Like, I love it like this most the time but being able to hit a button sometimes would be sweet.

any chance we can get something like this for chairs both vanilla and modded? It would be nice if pawns didn't look like they were standing behind chairs facing up when "sitting" in them.

Sadly doesn't work with Nature's Pretty Sweet

1.4 tag added.

Is alpha biomes actually not using the tree base >_<? That's all it's based on, lol. I'll have to take a look...

Would also like compatibility for Alpha Biomes

Could you please compatibility for alpha biomes?

A compatibility for Alpha Biomes would be awesome especially for the Miasmic Mangrove biome in Alpha Biomes. Also a transparency would be nice too.

Great mod but not sure If increased forest density and this match good together. I'd like to play with both but I'm finding it extra hard to see any stuff.
Forbid items comes very handy but still... Thanks for the work!

There indeed seems to be a bug with trees added by the popular Alpha Biomes mod: It does not modify perspective for them.
Tested & verified with only these two mods (and dependencies) enabled, can provide screenshots if you doubt it. Idk why they don't work, since the trees affected (e.g. AB_MangroveTree) seem to be derived from TreeBase.
But maybe you'll know if and what needs to be adjusted so the patch works for them as well.

@Kyrox: Well that's probably the reason why they are rendered "behind" in vanilla. Sure dynamic transparency would be nice, but as others have pointed out it would kill performance. So chose this mod, or vanilla.

Hi! Thank you for the mod! I have a minor issue where this mod doesn't seem to support trees added by mods. Here's my logs if it helps: https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/de88d7f79370e02f04e5264c85b7e205

i have seen now something rather funny
Rocs, aka massive mythological birds render behind trees which makes them flying about seem a little silly

know of a mod that does this for everything? generally anything one block north of something should be draw behind it, but so many things dont do that. even certain pawn clothing and beards when pawns are close to each other.

Trees are really a pain when fighting in now lol. A transparency setting would be nice.

Having the same problem has @yamgo

I know it's more work to make, but an elegant solution I found (in another game) was to make the top half of trees slightly transparent so that the player can still guess what's behind them. It's a good compromise between "f*cked perspective" and "can't see what's behind the trees" imho.

@Jim - the draw layer adjustment would only apply to trees. It should look "natural" in its perspective. Or am I misunderstanding and it didn't visually look correct? If that's the case, might sending a screenshot?

@Yamgo - Hmmm if you only tested with this mod loaded then it should just match the screenshot, yeah. Sometimes the perspective will still look wrong when they make a diagonal move in some edge cases, but that's just a fundamental limitation with how rimworld does its rendering (and sorry for delayed response, btw!).

@yamgo Yeah me too. I was just yesterday struggling to interact with some harvested berries as they were hidden behind a tree. Should they be rendered in front of the tree vanilla? Or does this mod only handle a specific set of objects?

In your screenshot, the deers render above the lower half of the tree but under the upper half. In my game, however, they always render behind, even the lower half. I tested it with only this mod loaded. Is that how it is supposed to be?

Probably already reported, but transport pod draw in front of trees even if placed behind

Hi Owlchemist, just an idea: if you could do something about pawns appearing above chairs in north view: https://i.ibb.co/qML45qv/Chair01.jpg

Strange, I tested the XML patch pretty thoroughly I thought. Well, I pushed an update just now that should help for now.

hey owlchemist, upon launching my game I received two errors from your mod.

Small update
- Fixes draw layer for the forming dryad pod (Ideology).

@trash - Interesting, hm. I'll see what I can do.

@Kurts - Performance shouldn't change whatsoever using this. It doesn't really matter what the draw layer is.

just incase it hasnt been brought up yet, gauranlen trees render ontop of.. whatever the hell that thing that spawns under it is suppose to be https://imgur.com/a/YbXIEa5 and doesnt really look right.
would it be possible for just gauranlen trees to be changed back or something?

i wonder if it kills performance too much?

@nikongmer pretty sure that kills your performance

Is there a way to make the trees transparent when a pawn or item is behind it, like the Medieval Overhaul mod? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2553700067

i love you

This mod is wonderful but now i keep seeing strange stuff. Anyone else realize that drapes and seats don't make sense?

Probably not.

Do I need this mod if I have majestic trees already?

Wrong mod link @Mactaverum, should be https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2324476979

Finally!
