The nice point about polygon trees is instantiation : multiple copies of 
a single tree cost the same resources as the single tree.

Thank you. I have used the version posted here a few weeks ago. Getting 
the edges for most of the cars was really a question of minutes.

	With the simple textures and the unique light-source, rendering was 
quite quick (~1 hour at 3600x4800 !). Because of the many objects and 
edges, parsing becomes a bit long though (~15 minutes).
