Hi Michelle, You can't actually make new plants. The SolidGrowth ability is E-on's alone. However, you can make new materials to use on existing SG plants, effectively making them appear to be totally new plant types. Guitta has a good tutorial for how to do this. Her site is at: http://start.at/arte Of course, you can also import 3D models to use. I have a bunch on my own site, DreamModels 3D, but be sure to select the DXF format. (I have VOB format available, but many of them were made in Vue 3.1 and won't work with v.2.) There are also lots and lots of plant and tree models all over the web. Begin at www.3dcafe.com and you'll find a bunch to start with. :)
