Found a great little app for making low-poly trees... (http://www.melog.ch/dl/simple_tree_creator_2007.zip) Simple Tree Creator :D

It's meant for Blitz Basic games, so it's output is .b3d but I've discovered a program that can convert .b3d files to .an8 (From (http://www.anim8or.com/) Anim8or you can convert to .3ds and .obj)

Here's a screenie of the program....

(http://homepage.ntlworld.com/sluggs/misc/xtoan8.zip) xtoan8 Converts .x/.b3d/.3ds to .an8 format! (Place in same folder as your model)

Woot! I assume you can get Thief-compatible textures from it as well? I see a big tree pack coming our way sometime soon! What ya say, Sluggs, you gonna do it? :cheeky:

Why not Yandros? :D (We could also pool all our trees together and make a huge pack!)

Here's one I made earlier...

Apparently you have to provide your own textures:

BTW, if this program outputs intersecting planes, the rendering quality/speed will probably be really bad.

The trees are pretty small, (like bushes), in Dromed, so they need enlarging at least 3 times before exporting them from Anim8or.

That last shot looks a lot like part of Bafford's Last Stand that was removed due to complications.
