Hi All.
I have very recently got the free version of Bryce 5.0 from DAZ.
I have a reasonable knowledge of Bryce, but only up to Bryce 3D.

One of the main reasons I got B5 was for the tree-lab (B3 doesn't have one, and I found myself getting frustrated with the limitations of the pre-sets). Of course, the other reason was the B5.0 is free:-))

So, of course I jumped into the Tree Lab and immediately played around with it.
Having got some reasonable results (well 2 semi-reasonable results, to be precise), I decided to to for the 1 tree I've always wanted to create (not only in Bryce):

-- A Weeping Willow.

Imagine my joy when I found there were 2 pre-sets for Weeping Willows, under the "tree-shape" drop down and the "leaf" drop-down.
I soon found another "down" - the result looked nothing like a a Weeping Willow (I almost wept)..

Choking back tears, I fiddled a bit with some of the parameters. Nothing I found stopped the resulting tree looking like a very tired chimney-sweep's brush.

And, of course, since I have the D/L'd freebie, there's no manual to explain what the the parameters do, how they interact etc. (unless I've missed a D/L, or something...)

(Sorry for the long intro: just trying to show where I was coming from and cut out irrelevant answers..)

So, anyway..
Does anyone have some Tree Lab settings that will create a decent, mature, Weeping Willow (the type you see near rivers after they've got well established): tall, with graceful, long drooping branches that nearly reach down to the ground (and long, thin leaves)?

I'm not sure it can be done. But I live in hope:-))

Cheers,
Diolma
