Wow! Looks awesome. Unfortunately I can't help with any of the bushes, trees, or shrubbery, as I have NO CLUE how to make them, and currently have other projects at hand (as in learning how to program in 2 days, when I am forced to go to my dad's work and code my brains out!). The only way I can offer my assistance is by testing. If you don't mind, you could send me alpha, or beta maps, and I can test the heck outta them! Good luck.

Wow, a lot of posts in the past few days. I just caught up with them. Great stuff so far. And eagle, I like your mushrooms. There are certainly varieties that match the shape of the ones you posted. Amanitas for example:

For color contrast, there is always the spectacular Amanita muscaria:

Not all keep the bottom veil, and the top is some shade of red with randomly placed white dots.

These are just ideas for fun; I already like the mushrooms you have very much!

P.S. For more mushroom photos:

Be careful - I'm seeing references to "my bushes" - remember where these came from!

yes louman we know if we use your bushes in the map than you will get full credit for them

Would this also pass as a bush? Cheap looking but it might work

well, thats a pretty good leafy plant to put around the map too

Hi BIYA,

Just curious on whether you figured out a way to reduce the #polys for leaves. I can't tell how many you're using from the jpg.

Nice "jungly" bush by the way.

Hope you're having fun,

I like the bush but it will be hard to reduse the polygon count unles you make the plants into textures

BIYA · Post by **BIYA** » Fri Nov 04, 2005 9:20 pm

That bush can be used..... I had to make new leaves for that. I have different leaves for the tree..

7,000 polys is what that bush has which is okay
