@Dennis445- I have searched the web and "Googled" for Treemaker 2.0, so far in vain. If I run across a new address for it I will be sure to let you know. I'd be very interested to hear about or see any results you have in "boning" non-Carrara tree models for animation. Sounds like a very cool idea.
As far as Twig is concerned; did you dbl click on the little icon that is labeled Twig.exe? I didn't "install" Twig, even though there is an install exe included in the unpacked folder. I just clicked on the Twig.exe icon(the one with the stylized flowers) and the app opened(much like UV Mapper Classic) and it did not ask for a serial number. I did a test and transfered the unpacked file to my other computer(my Carrara/render box) and without installing the "setup bootstrap" exe I was able to dbl click on the Twig.exe and open the app there too. Then I just copied and pasted some of the preset plant settings in the "Create" tab section and was able to export an .obj model file. You will have to name your file with a .obj on the end of it. Twig will not add this suffix, so you can do it manually. From there you should have no problem. The only glitch I encountered was when I pasted the settings for the blowngrass file, and the program generated some very nice roses!:laugh:
