RE: Trees

Damn, why can't all modeling be that easy?

Also, I'm curious about how these affect game play; do they have too many polygons/surfaces/whatever to run efficiently on hpl2?

I rate it 3 memes.

The two images above are taken from the game. There is no problem.

What's the poly count on the one you got ingame. There is no way you can have a forest of those with the settings you used. I'm trying to get one down as low poly as possible for more distant trees.

Yea, that's much higher than the trees included with Amnesia. I think the pine trees are somewhere around 900 polys. Could probably get away with one or two. It looks great in-game however.

RE: Trees

These look alright, however what most people would want to use them for is creating giant forrests, it seems to be a theme around here.

In which case they wouldn't be efficient at all, from what I can tell you're using a hell of a lot polygons to shape the leaves, I suggest you lower that ammount.
