Best tree generation system
-
Check out http://arbaro.sourceforge.net/ it's easy to learn (if you like to play a bit) and does it's thing pretty fast; exports DXF, OBJ, and povray (whatever that is); and is completely FREE! But: it will kick SU in the gut bigtime just like the others. (Which is why I started making the 2.5d varieties :`)

Thanks to all)
So, I was tryed Onyx Tree... I can say, that its generate trees with about 100-150K polygons on each. And there is 'minimize' function, that reduce number of polygons to 20-40K
I was launch SU with imported model, and it start to work very slow (AMD 5200+, not the best for the 3D, but...)I'm working with landscape modelling, and I need realistic trees very much
So, what should I do? Maybe settling in 3Dsmax?
Or I have to try SU with imported tree on quad-core processor? Will it help? -
If you need to use high poly trees your better of doing it another app, sketchup whimpers and dies in the face of high poly trees.
-
have you tried RpTreeMaker?
-
And here's another one:

Is this Hothouse 3D a Freebie Program? I didn't notice any details about pricing or whether or not this is a trial?
Thx,

Hi David. It's a freebie for the foreseeable, but never say never:)

Dryad free

Frecle free

Frenchy - YOU DA MAN!

You too Richard, you too !
This curiosity for you Not sure it's work if you have not 3DCoat but... -

So I went to this link but I couldn't see where one actually downloads the software! it was a link to a forum that links to another forum . .etc etc? any help?
Thx,

Hum hum
You don't see the link following the images?
Maybe glasses is needing

No. . . I didn't see that. Merci.
ps. I do wear glasses. . .. apparently it's time for a perscription change.

@frenchy
tree[d] is pretty cool in itself, but how do you use it with sketchup? I haven't been able to export a usable tree with leaves. -
Try to find a prog who reload format DirectX or a converter then export in 3Ds or other compatible format with SU
Never try -
-
Okay. I wasn't really aware of the use of the direct X format.
But like you're saying - if the the conversion makes the trees bigger than 1-2 mb, I might as well make my own trees.
I've been searching for a good workflow with trees and either kerkythea or indigo. But because of sketchups poly limit, I think kerkytheas proxy replacement option might be the best for fast results, and skindigos dummy components If I' going for an indigo render.@solo
I've noticed quite a few renders you've made with vue. Are you using Xtream or Infinite? (Infinite is the standalone app, right?). And how do you find the sketchup -> vue work flow? I'm really interested in Vue, because of the seemingly unparalleled possibilities with trees and eco environments. -
hi all,
im running a mac with parallel desktop on it. I downloaded tree[d]. But when i try to open the program i get this error massage. "Unable to create 3D scene" does anyone know why? or how to resolve this problem -
Bit of a guess, but i dont think most virtual machines can access the graphics card on your main machine. If the app requires openGL or directX this could cause problems.
