Looks cool
You were able to make the shadows to the trees I guess

~~Actually, no. sk89q is just pulling some tricks out of his sleeve.~~

Never mind. I miss read that. >.<

I don't make maps with the intention of not finishing them

I just rather put my free time into other things, since map making requires a lot of time.

can someone explain how i can put the trees and grass into a map? and how to make the leaves/grass just a plane?

More trees and some plant life:

Note: I'm not sure you would want to use some of the models, namely the ferns, because the textures are large files.

Wow those models you have made are looking fantastic.
I have a request tho: Make a winter tree!!

If you can make a pine-ish tree or just skin a normal tree to look semi-dead and snow covered that would be amazing. I would put it in Frigid.

There's one thing I found in tree6, I'm not sure if it's just me but I'll post it here:

* Cameron adores the trees.

sk89q · « **Reply #30 on:** July 16, 2008, 07:47:01 PM »

I didn't have that problem, but I'll look into it. Can you upload the .map?

Cameron · « **Reply #31 on:** July 16, 2008, 08:29:42 PM »

If possible could you create a tree that has like a brown trunk with Green leaves, I don't there is currently one. Unless, Laged told me wrong

.

sk89q · « **Reply #32 on:** July 16, 2008, 11:19:50 PM »

You should be able to just copy the mesh to your own folder and replace the textures.

There's one with a brown-ish/yellow trunk.

If that was for me yeah, I can. I made a map to test your new models and here it is.
Also, I get this message when I'm entering the map.

Cameron · « **Reply #34 on:** July 17, 2008, 02:48:36 PM »

Mhm. I get that message as well. Also when I tried out tree6 it did the same thing.

Yea i got that same error. and the same on as the missing jpg. could the missing jpg be wahts making that part of the model go without a texture?

EDIT: HA! it was. i took a picture of the Trix Cereal Rabbit and put it in models/sk89q/trees/hr4 and named it b.jpg and it showed as the texture for the tree

Which program did you generate those with? I was thinking about making a tree generator at one point, but it seems there are a few already. This one looks amazing:

Too bad most computers wouldn't be able to handle that much detail.

Trix are for kids, not trees......

Using: http://tinyurl.com/6hlz7d It's the only one that I know of that uses billboarding to cut down on poly.

How do you get the tree to be solid, to where you cant walk through them? To make it realistic you really are not suppost to walk through trees.
