DZ Deciduous Trees 2 Demo Video
Demo map is not included in the package.
Only overview map is included.
Demo video’s map is based on MW Broadleaf Trees Forest Biome by replacing large and medium trees with the trees of this package.
With these 50 very high-quality deciduous trees that are photographed in the Finnish forests and parks you can create amazing environments for any purpose you can ever imagine. This asset includes high resolution Nanite models and textures of three different tree species: birches (10 silver birches and 10 sand birches), aspens (10 normal aspens and 10 columnar aspens) and willows (10). Our updated materials with most easy to use stepless seasonal settings and incredible wind effects make these trees just perfect for every purpose from games to architectural purposes. It’s hard to believe that all the DZ trees are actually game ready assets. Get yourself to our YouTube channel and prove it to yourself.
Full Nanite support:
All the trees are high-res Nanite meshes and are using Nanite by default. Everything is optimized to achieve the best performance without compromising quality.
Efficient and highly user-friendly materials:
Master materials (2 pieces) are very easy to understand and effective. Material instances created from them allow easy customization of trees and wind effects according to your wishes. Wind effects are very cheap for PC performance, yet most realistic. Watch tutorial and demo videos to get an idea of all the useful features that these versatile materials offer. These include, for example, stepless and most realistic seasonal settings (including snow and wetness), possibility to add moss/lichen and peeled bark to trunks and branches, adjusting the visibility of leaves, adjusting the amount of leaves, killing the wind effect smoothly according to the distance and mixing different wind directions with different strengths. Wind effects also use two vertex colors to get branches move more naturally.
