I love using trees and flowers in 3D works. Bryce has a nice tree generator (the best I ever touched) but is unfortunaly unable to export the trees as models.

My question is, if anybody knows a REAL good 3D tree generator that is usable for more than just low poly trees. I often need a few different trees in a scene, so taking readymade models is a bad option for me.


So, is there maybe a freeware treegenerator out there you can recommend? Or does the real fun require cash? Which commercial tree generator application you would recommend then?


Or, let's ask it maybe like this: How do YOU make trees for your scenes?


Thanks


Sonny

Hi Sonny,


I do like the tree generator in Bryce. I sometimes render the trees in Bryce then billboard them in a scene in another application


One tree generator that may be OK for you is Dryad, give it a try, it is free:-
