vfxninjaeditor Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Fellow modders, I am in need of some help. I am currently working on a mod that expands on the flora of Skyrim. I have two resources I am working with. GKB Green Trees and Vurt's Trees (Vurt has given me permission). GKB has over 300 trees but many of them look very alike and lots of them are trees that don't fit with Skyrim's climate (palm trees). Basically, I need new trees - variety. I have no knowledge on making models for Skyrim. I do have the ability to make textures. If there is anyone out there who would like to help me by making me new tree models, this could be awesome. All credit will be given. Afterward, I would even suggest that you release your models as resources so others can benefit. Let me know below, and then we can PM if anyone is interested. Thank you!

FavoredSoul Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 (edited) Why not just use the existing tree meshes ?All you have to do is give them a new texture. The leaves of a tree mesh is just a bunch of flat planes; a suitable blank slate allowing you to create any shape of leaves you want. As for the tree itself, the bark texture is an easy switch.

As for the tree itself, the bark texture is an easy switch.The main reason is, they are not diverse enough. I can't just give the vanilla pine trees a full retexture and new leaves and call it a new tree. It won't look right. I need new meshes designed to look like other trees.
