Is there a simple way to adjust the texture maps on the plants, trees, ect..? I am thinking along the lines of changing tree, plant leaves to more of a fall look or if it is possible to assign the leaves a transparency so they look leafless :) Winter style? Any comments or suggestions welcome. Thanks

If you go to the Vue tutorials section there are some tuts on this by Guitta. Varian and Guitta both have alternate plant mats at their websites as well. Making the leaves invisible is an easy one. Open your material browser (button on the toolbar that looks like three spheres), edit the leaf mat you want to change, and set the transparency to 100%. Varian also has some excellent tuts on ways to use multiple trees together as one tree (you'll find his site through the Vue tutorial links as well). Rich

Much thanks to both of you! I knew it was probably possible but it is even more than I expected - Thanks
