This little jewel generates trees. They tend to be high poly, but everything can be configured to perfection. Check out the pic:

The program is called Arboro.

You can get it here: http://arbaro.sourceforge.net/

Edit: Its 100 percent multiplatform, since it is an executable jar file.

There's this awesome other software that costly like a kagillion dollars that does the same thing... this is really good news for lazy map-makers like me.

I actually really like that desert bush in the picture I posted. It would look good on a desert map.

you should try to make us a tree in it to show us how easy it is.

i made a christmas tree in like 5 mins but I am too lazy to upload it and its 5 megs. It needs to be slimmed down (has like 5000 leaves)

I've played with it myself iirc. Not really possible to make suitably low-poly trees. TreeMagik looks good, but is commerical.

Would actually be a good tool for spring trees. However, it costs $$.

Those look great agorm, Please make some clusters also, that way we can place large groups as well.

btw, could you look into making some large and wide pine trees with low poly count? Thanks in advance!

To be honest... there quite high polly for low polly trees... there just one of the things you cant get away with less on. However I will be doing some more trees for inland, and after that sure, I'll look at doing some pine trees. :-)
