It's an automatic tree-generator for 3ds Max. Just thought I'd post about it since (as much as I love drawing them) tree modeling can be surprisingly time-consuming for such a simple object (like modeling groups of pipes or railing that looks aesthetically nice). Thoughts? Opinions?

didn't Dead island use Treegen for their trees?
I remember seeing this over at Crydev.

They may have, not sure, but this is the first time I've seen this. I wonder how well these trees work in CE. May need some Sauce....

Looks cool, will be using it.
But I'm sure MAX had something like this built in...

... or if you're using UDK or a similar engine... Speedtree is already built in.

But yeah, free alternatives is great.
