New Plant factory assets
- Thread starter mikeman
- Start date
That's great to hear! I downloaded them yesterday but haven't had a chance to take a look at them. Are there any direct replacements for anything we already have? That would make upgrading so much easier when the time comes.
I downloaded all of them yesterday and used them to replace all of the existing tree assets on my Wilsons Mills & Mount Olive route that I am upgrading. While most of them look fairly good, I am a bit concerned with the very short ranges involved before they switch LODs very visibly.
Also there seems to be a limited number of seasonal changes available. The ones I used seemed only to display spring/summer foilage or fall foilage and that was it. Winter should show no foilage at all but I didn't see that in my limited tests. This may not be true for all the assets but in my tests of a few of them that appeared to be the case. The fruit trees were a little disappointing and the existing trees I had used looked a lot better then these new ones.
As performance seems to be the main target and goal for these new trees, I will probably stick with them.

After previewing a few, they look on par with RMM trees, although many seem to have a big bare spike running up the center. The Norway Spruces are almost barren. The firs look tight like arbor vitas, so not sure what type of fir. Overall, though, it is great to have all these new choices in our inventory!
Thanks guys for the impression. I do know from my experience that they are working on the overall LOD performance in the latest beta. The LOD is looking better than first impressions, although there were some sudden pop-up assets in that test version. Let's hope when the final SP is released, these issues are resolved.
I noticed a config issue that season selector is wrong prepared. I tested broadleaf trees and when snow line is modified they are without leaves of course, autumn mode also works ok. But when you set december, january etc. without snow line they are still on spring mode with green leaves.
Sounds like the asset's geo coordinates might be bad then. Report this bug.

I downloaded a bunch of the PF assets today. Not sure I like them. I placed a bush and while panning around for a closer look the foliage disappeared. Upon closer inspection I noticed the leaves were not 3D but on a flat plane....don't know how to explain it. Once lined up with the camera the leaves can't be seen. Some of the grasses I placed did the same thing. They will probably be great for flora away from the track and close views.

Where do I download these new PF trees.

They are on the DLS.
I'm a little confused. What do I look for, and how do I bulk download the files?
Hi Peter
Thanks for that info. Using it gave me access to the PF files , and I was able to sucessfully download them. Appreciate your input.

Coordinates on my maps are also set up correctly. Seasonal set of st_rmm assets, CEM etc. woks fine. It's asset prepairing omission.

It really looks like that trees doesn't even have non snowy winter variant without leaves and snow cover texture on trunk.
From the other side bushes have winter mode... with snow painted on autumn leaves textures... Please... Who's doing tests of seasonality of it before DLS upload?
