Thanks! The tree results are really nice with that tool. Also, the leaves seem to be properly connected to the branches. A lot of tree tools create noticeable "floating" leaves that can ruin the results, especially for close-ups.

This could probably work well for creating shrubs, hedges, and ivy, too.

yes, and topiaries too, I have made a couple of monkey head trees and cube trees just as an experiment. Generally though, if you have something like a cube for the canopy you'll want to do a fractal subdivide or two on it. It seems to work best with slightly rough geometry.

huh, didn't know he ever was a mod here.
Also, haven't seen him all too active here lately,
but I'd suppose that to be for the same reason he took time off of BA.Org. :)

Felix, I think you are right. I guess Appolux is the mod here, now that I think about it. Ian, right on man, hope you make some nice trees.
