Oak tree mesh help
« on: July 05, 2013, 10:27:36 pm »
I have been making meshes for my map but I've ran into a problem. I love the branches on the Oak tree but I have no idea on it there is a way to take the leaves on the tree off, please inform if there is a way to do that to where I just have a plain oak tree with no leaves. Thanks ahead!

Oh, I've wondered this for a while, too. I'll sit here and eat a cookie while helpful people post. :3

Just make a plain texture that's completely transparent named "invisible" and put it in a material file with the right code... then retexture the leaves to that... :P I know there was an invisible thing in some object pack but I forgot what...

I don't know if you can make the actual leaves fall off unless there was a new animation for the tree. I can however suggest Glave's particles, there is one called Autumn Leaves which you may like ;)

EDIT: I have used this particle in my maps. If you stretch out the particle it looks like the leaves have been scattered about in the air and fall similarly to snow in my opinion :)

I'm not that good at making textures so how exactly would I do that?

Put it in my_objects and then click on the oak tree leaves, change the material to invisible and hopefully it will be invisible...
