What I have done is increase the number of branches per segment, maybe to 3 or more, then increase the branch starting angle. First, though, you need to select an evergreen species and matching leaf type. Lowering that angle is what begins to show the more recognizable shape. This is my experimentation, because I tend not to read docs like I should. You can also check some sites for freebies, such as Handspan Studios. There are a bunch of Poser links there, many containing freebies, but also some models that can be brought into Bryce. Check them for plants and trees. I know the 3D Cafe has some free trees, including some pines, so it might be a good thing to check those out.

If you are useing Bryce5...Go into the Tree editor and Pick Douglas Fir and then go into the Tree editor by clicking on the E in your working window...Then go over to Trunk Material it is Down at the Bottom on the Left hand side and then you are Brought into the Material Editor...Go and Find the Trunk Texture you want(For Winter scene's I like to use the Mountain Texture Mud and Snow)and I apply it as the Trunk Texture and I make sure that the Mapping mode is set at WORLD SPACE...now I go into the Leaf Material Editor and change the Leaf Texture to the same thing...Then click ok and render your tree and make adjustments as Needed....
