Indeed, check the Speed Tree library, it has some, and then you can make some variations.

Yes , however , these palm trees giveprobelms ingame , the tree has no leafs in speedtree , Instead the branches got the texture of the leaf . It looks normal in speedtree , but not good ingame .

Ok, try this, instead of putting the leaves into the Leaf folder, put it into Fronds. The island (You are starting with the small one first correct?) is looking good, perhaps make some other exotic tree (besides palm trees) for it.

Keep up the good work Good job!

Yes, I'm starting with the small one. No, putting in in fronds didn't work, I'll just put sme other exotic trees in. Here's a video of the small island.

Looking good, have you thought about adding the awning to the houses? And also note that there are thesebig poles on which the houses can stand, they are also put on trees, with models surrounding them. Take a look at all of the Ndib models we have.

to quote the maker of the island :

quote:

maker of the island
Nope no speedtree palms. I dont think it will be possible to do that but I may be wrong. If we are able to export animatios in the future I mgiht give animation the trees manually a shot so that they can sway in the wind but it isn't a priority really.

That means it , as I already thought , is impossible to make palms Frown

A rope ladder? And I don't really care that the trees are static honestly, if the look superb I'm a happy man.

Personally I think more tropical looking trees would be nice. However, I know that might be difficult. I'll keep working on rainforest trees which should go a long way to making it look tropical.

I agree, and we should make some tropical plants as well, I'll try to dig up some screens from Far Cry.

I agree, better tropical looking trees will go a long way. The town itself looks barren, add more houses, use those awnings I told you about (Coloured things that you can place over models) make a port on each of the isldsn (there are models for it). We also have all the remaining models converted, I will be uploading them soon.

PLANTS DUDE

Could be useful for plants.

Er... unless you can understand, try translating it with babelfish.
