Really? I have been using it since before Christmas and there discussions about it on the Moi3d forum. http://moi3d.com/forum/lmessages.php?webtag=MOI&msg=8092.3 There are a fair number of video tutorials on You Tube too. Very odd that it's a blocked address.

Hi UVDan
Assuming you are using Moi, you need to export your model as an OBJ file.   Moi pretty much always makes an nice mesh and you can play with the export options if it doesn't.

Hi
Just like to say I have been using Moi since last Christmas and its wonderfully quick and easy to use.  I think I might have given up modelling without Moi.  It has a friendly forum too.

Quote - I agree that the colors of the default tree shaders are way over-saturated and bright. Bryce is the same way. They end up looking like toy train set (not model railroad) trees.
A good starting point for more realistic trees would be to grab Patrick210's tree shader from either digitalpainters.net, or from polyloop,net  It's a freebie layered shader and makes good use of translucency for realistic backlighting. You could also grab HowieFarkes's terrific free snow scene from the Carrara freebie forum at DAZ. It includes his great snow-covered trees and is quite instructive if you analyze the plant editor and material settings he used to achieve his effects.

Odd that you mention Howie Farkes.  While half awake this morning I was thinking that it must be really difficult to make a tree with snow and remembered Howie's Daz competition wining picture.

I was also wondering if anyone like  Howie had made a new set of trees.  It seems the sensible thing to do. 

Thanks to both of you I will check out your recommendations.

Hi
Is there a reason why carrara's default vegetation is emerald green, was it made that way as a starting point for editing?  Is the solution to edit the leaves or is it best to make trees from scratch or us billboards?

I think I saw a tutorial by Mark Bremmer on how to make a tree with nice leaves but it seems that it must take a long time to make everything for a scene by re-texturing all the carrara trees.  And as this seems like the sort of job done once why isn't the internet choc-a-block with ready made trees?
