The trees look like they have a bad case of anorexia...

Trees. They've always been kind of a bugaboo in CFS 2 with its pre-autogen engine. I'm looking forward to these trees as we really don't have good artillery and shrapnel blasted forests.

I guess you never saw these then.

Lindsay made these for me. I'll release them with my scenery once i'm finished. There are nine different ones. i only used one or two in these picks.

Wow! Those look perfect and I look forward to them.

I wonder if they could be compiled into large .bgl files like Wolfi did for his forests? That way the hit on FRs isn't too bad for large areas of forest.

A bit of trivia:

During my tours in SE Asia, you could often tell the borders between Laos and Cambodia from Thailand as the former two still had dense forests while in Thailand, the big teak forests had been logged off and just brown fields remained. Why? The trees in Laos and Cambodia had shrapnel and bomb fragments in them and couldn't be processed at the lumber yards.

I'll ask Lindsay if he can do that. Would be nice to have a few forest patches. I'll see if he is up to it. He hasn't been very well lately.
