3D Trees
-
Running CleanUp on the trees will reduce the number of faces used.

In case anyone is searching this thread later, I posted a tutorial here: Tree[d] to SketchUp Tutorial

Speed tree anyone?

(except the price is hairy, the export to FBX and conversion to SU is awesome as a great looking tree can end up as little as 3MB.)
Here is a quick test.
-
Did you buy it, Pete?
(If that's the trial, is it fully functional and savable?)The price is not only "hairy" but the whole licensing is so weird and stupid that I cannot even understand what they mean.
-
I didn't even see a price on their site - it all said "contact us".

What about the mesh complexity?
-
On one of the pages there is a download link to a PDF file (what a stupid solution BTW). Different prices range between $6,000+ and $10,000+

bwhaaaaah!

Apparently the educational licence is under $100.
That just doesn't make sense to me.

When you consider ILM developers have given testimonials it must be a serious piece of kit. A game developers dream I suppose.

Then there is always Vue trees, best used in Vue obviously.
However for a low detailed SU version it's doable. (1.7MB)
