Tired of 50 hour render times for nature scenes?

3D tree models are slow

Traditional tree models often have millions of polygons, and multiple complex materials, making them very slow to render. They also slow down the viewport and add to visual noise while working.

They also use a lot of memory

Another problem with having all of those polygons and textures is that they can add up and overload the memory limits of your GPU, resulting in having to render on the CPU, which is often 5 to 10x slower.

Use Alpha Trees to render 10x the no. of trees 10x as fast

Billboards are much faster

Alpha Trees uses flat tree cards to speed up rendering and lower memory usage. Each tree card only has 4 vertices, drastically increasing performance when compared to the millions usually found in 3D tree models.

Just as realistic as 3D trees

The tree cards use an advanced material that allows them to react to lighting and translucency.

This means that they can still look 3D, without needing the extra geometry.

Always best side forward

Since the trees are 2D, you might think that when the camera views them from the side that they would disappear. However, they automatically face towards the active camera, giving the convincing illusion that they are 3D
