A series of conifer trees loosely based on the Norway Spruce, lends a mid range resolution mesh to give renders that realism while retaining poly count within an acceptable level.

There are 6 adult trees, and 4 young trees.
In VOB format
OBJs included
MAT shaders for trees included



--------------------------------------

System Requirements:

PC ONLY
Vue 6 or better, any app that can load OBJ files

--------------------------------------

Ownership Statement:

All of this product's content was created by Darrin Smith (Swidhelm)

--------------------------------------

Installation Instructions:

Unzip to wherever you'd like to store them.

From Vue, click *load object*, then click the *new collection* button (looks like a little piece of paper, bottom left corner of the window) and locate the folder you just extracted.

This will make access to the VOBs quick.

Place the textures where they are easy to locate from Vue.



--------------------------------------

Usage Tips or Limitations:

Not recommended for tight closeups. Better for back ground rendering.

They work great in an Ecosystem.

NOTE: One of the materials is called (null) in the obj. The texture associated with that is Scruff.

NOTE: Branches use same texture file as trunks on the adult trees. The branches on the sapling trees also use this texture, though the trunks on the saplings have their own trunk texture.

The twigs are not mapped, just textured with a procedural shader in Vue.
