you should make the bottom a bigger and the top smaller, only a little bit, not like a christmas tree, it'll give it more shape.
Tree 01

looking a lot better, but isn't it a completely different kind of tree now?
-
Dont think so, the first one just lacks a little sun

Well yeah it's a totally new model, but I'm not going to spam the boards with shitty threads about my crappy trees

I am trying to learn, and a big thanks to all those who have helped me.
Currently I am trying to figure out a problem with compiling in-game, then I have to figure out why I can't get lod models to compile with my model. Then I'll fix the foliage on the tree lol

[edit] Biggest thanks goes out to Steven_m64 for helping me out with my qc problems, finally in game and with working lod's (foolishly I didn't set the sky to a brighter one, and I made the map too small for my lod's to come into play
)None-the-less, here's a screen:

Feel free to share if you wish...
*cough*

Sorry, they are for Hostile Intent

When the mod is released I'll put all the models I make into a pack and release them seperately for third party use or just general thievery

[edit] However if you want to map for HI now then you get the models earlier *cough*

Yeah, it's WIP, I got sidetracked by the fact it wasn't working in-game. I have XSI open now and I'm working on it

-
Wow wow please release that trees I will be so happy

Is it a reflection on his character that I know who you're talking about, and I've been here less than a week?

Better?

That's several bajillion times better than your initial post

Nicely done!

very nice trees!!! gj

Thanks, encouraging words indeed.
I appreciate the criticism a lot, though. I am still learning.
-
we are all always in the learning status.
cool trees! may i see your textures?
-
The big brown block I just slapped in in PS to show my plans.
Because of the crappy fraw problem with $translucent, I used high res textures with $alphatest. The drawback is huge image sizes but better transparency and no draw problem. And I figured putting two different models on one texture would help with resources.

Watermarks just encourage rippers to steal your work. By the way, what is with the two totally different types of leave sets?

Yeah, I feel kinda bad for doubting you's integrity. But whatever, no love lost.

One model, two skins for different types of trees?Just a guess.
I lol'd at the watermark, too.
