Hello,

  I need to make a lot of scots pines in some scene, but I need good 
detail of the nearest trees. Any ideas how to create them or where get 
some low detail and high detail models/macros for them?

Example real images of such trees are

http://www.queensu.ca/pps/grounds/arboretum/Scotspine.htm

Thanks a lot

Disnel

The trees aren't much good for closup, but if you need a lot of trees for
middle/distance, they might help.

I had 15,000 trees in the image (well, that's how many I generated, but some are
certainly out of sight).

Thanks a lot, I'll try it.

A possibility would be to download the evaluation version of xfrog
(www.xfrog.com), figure out how to use it and try to model one yourself
(it's feasible because they have pines in some of their libraries). The demo
version is fully functional for 1 month.

take a look in p.b.images. I put there an image of a xfrog pine.
I can help you with the xfrog source, if you want it .
But there is a major drawback: the image took more than 300 MB ram
because of the large tree mesh (the needles are triangles).
An old standard xfrog pine needs "only" about 100 MB.
You can see it here:

With these two trees combined you should be able to make a whole forest.

I'd be interested too, in fact. I've tried to make one but I'm not
proficient enough with xfrog (yet).

This is exactly the tree, which I want ;-). But I need to finish it up 
to this thursday and I never worked with xfrog (because I don't use 
windows and there is no Linux version, I should install windows inside 
vmware for it). Your help with xfrog source will be great for me.

In computer I have 1GB, so I hope, that I can use some trees of such a size.

Thanks a lot
