CA has the lovely tree thing, but anyway to make it low resource?

i really just need the tree tops.

was wondering if anyone's seen a set for the budget conscious?

is for a dragon chase animation.

    Billboard Trees are only horrible if you render them from the front to create a billboard for a flyover. If you render them from the top.....

    Granted much depends on how full your canopy is. I highly recommend Inagoni's Baker for Carrara for this as you get normal maps as well for your billboards which gives them some perceived depth.

    Note if you are using motion blur not many will be able to tell the difference. Now if it is a slow speed chase, that may change how you do it.

    Baker is a Plug-in, part of the Advance Pack (http://www.daz3d.com/advance-pack) or available separately direct from Inagoni. Without it you can simply create a "Splat" in Carrara.

    Note that even with Baker, you are still creating a splat. LOL

    Crazy Ivan is a Russian Submarine Maneuver, or are you referring to the incorrect reference in Firefly? LOL

    Hey I didn't make up the splat as used in Carrara, but that is the word to search the docs for. LOL.
