KS_Nordschleife ext_conifg 1.5

Updated the resource to work with the new CM\CSP Nords config released recently since they didn't include the fall colored pine tree fix I submitted to them. This should allow you to still see the new bmw wall and other things they added, plus my fixes for the incorrect fall colored trees and grass.

If you prefer the old config that doesn't include the new bmw pitwall, fences, etc., open the ext_config.ini file and change 'ext_config-original-old' to ACTIVE = 1 and 'ext_config-original-new' to ACTIVE = 0. To bring back the ugly 3D trees (don't know why you would want to), set 'ext_config-3d-tree-removal' to ACTIVE = 0

Lastly, there is an included stupid little Grass skin because on my system the grass always seemed a little faded. You don't need to use this, but I threw it in just for people who may like it.

Setup the configs in the same manner as I did for my Brands Hatch 3D tree removal mod. Much easier to manage with same potential problem down the road.

NOTE: You might want to restore the original CSP (ks_nordschleife.ini) track config to the extension\config\tracks\loaded folder, although it shouldn't matter. If you don't know how, simply delete that file and let CM download it again. Might also be best to delete the files from previous versions from the tracks extension folder. Again, shouldn't matter. You will overwrite them when you extract the mod.

If anyone knows of other Kunos tracks with 3D trees, let me know which ones in the discussion thread so I can see about removing them. Nords and BH are the only ones I really noticed them on. Thanks...

Couple of small things:

Added the Material Adjustment to darken the distant pine trees that I accidentally left out of the past version.

Discovered something today that I didn't pick up on. The brightness is altered slightly on the trees when using the ext_config with just my adjustments in it. This doesn't happen if I make the ext_config a full replacement of the CSP version. For the life of me, I am unable to figure out why. So I included two different ext_config files for those that may be bothered by the slight change in the look. They both still go in the tracks extension folder. Only extract the version you want.

You could also take the full replacement version and rename it to ks_nordschleife and drop it in the extension\config\tracks\loaded folder and replace the CSP version. If you do this, delete my previous ext_config from the tracks extension folder. This is the method I use, but it has issues. If CM\CSP ever updates the file, my changes get removed. For me, it's an easy fix because I have backups of my version if I need to restore anything.

Still has the ability to hide all the 3D trees at the bottom of either file. Just set them to ACTIVE = 1.

Sorry for the hassles. I'm not an expert at this so I make lots of mistakes.

I think I got it this time. Now it should look like the picture, work in the winter and not have glowing grass. If not, I give up because it works fine when integrated into the actual track config.

Sorry, missed a Material Adjustment number that threw off winter. This should be correct...
