Nice in-game footage.
I would love to see you make props for 'Far Cry 2' scenery.

you handled the thatch is very clever

[tinanne]

Thank you, Solo, for generously sharing your creativity and your palms!

Pete,
That line overlay on a PR image works well if the 3D components are loaded in SU but what about if the 2D entourage is added post SU...say in Podium?
From memory, Piranesi does a reasonable job of finding edges on a raster image and Deep Image to some degree. Are there oher apps....PS plugins? that do a good enough job?

Dear Gaieus,

Could you move the palms to the components section so that they are easier to find?

Regards,
Bob

[Gaieus]

I'll rather ask Pete to do this, Bob (maybe more exactly to collect all of them and share in one post). After all, he is also a moderator!

[solo]

I have added a few trees to the collection which is now in the component forum.

Here is an image with a few of those trees, I will work on the plants soon to get them to a smaller more useable size and post them there too.

very NICE work and really IMPRESSIVE!

[plot-paris]

thanks a lot for sharing, solo. these trees are really marvellous (and I think the filesize is quite small already).

[Ondreas]

SOLO, I have to say your trees are incredible!!!
Im still playing around to find the right way to create such an amazing tress like you do... But I do not know the tricks ( yet... :rolling_on_the_floor_laughing: ) Im still having troubles with complexity and low-polygon(?) size for trees. As many leafs and branches I add - it always rapidly increase size...

But this is out of this Topic.
Thank you so much for the trees.
Your renders are truly " ALIVE " !!!

Great job Solo and a NICE house. When can I move in?

I posted a few images of one of these scenes in another thread showing how I export the SU line work and overlap it in PSP. Anyway here are two images of several still to come of a current project that I am not doing in a total photo real way but rather a more illustrative way.

I have still to do The whole site with all 6 units nestled amongst the foliage with roads, paths, pools etc.

Hi Pete!
Thank you very much for all the palm trees! I use them and i love them!
What is the name of the one with the big leaves (right next to the middle column of the house) have you ever made that one available for the public?

[solo]

That's the banana palm, it's available as part of my Garden pack here: http://solosplace.com/3Dgarden.aspx

shameless plug.

[Pg09]

Oh banana palm!
I'm gonna check out that package for sure

Hi solo, i was looking through the topics and i found this one that you say, you make your own trees. I'm new to the forum and i don't know about this tree making thing. So could you provide me the name of the tree making program you use to make your own trees? Thanks alot.
