by Morrie · in General Discussion · 08/31/2006 (6:24 pm) · 6 replies

I saw theres a forest pack by Ben. I looked for it but didn't see it any where, they used on the TSE demo. It looks nice and I was wondering where I could get it or if its available yet.

Speedtree is available right now : )

If you're very patient I've made quite a bit of progress on a shader driven tree solution, and it's price tag will = 0. Only broadleaves at the moment, quickly made art assets, no collision, and torque's pain in the ass frustrum culling (which makes 40 - 60 ft tall trees require multiple parts) at the moment. All of those are due to get fixed.

@marcus:

I think he concluded that the picture with trees on that MS4 dev shot posted by Tim Aste was the tree pack.

The Forest Pack Tech preview mentioned in Ben's blog is here.

@Jonathan

You're probably right. It would be wierd to call a picture a demo though.

@Adam

I have seen that demo before. If that is MS4 I shouldn't have bought TSE. LOL! I know that it isn't though. ;)
