TreeIt - almost Speedtree for free

[Capostrophic]

That way we can actually 'see' the trees with Oblivion and Skyrim in OpenMW proper.

Pedantic note: Skyrim doesn't use SpeedTree and all the trees will look the same on starting a new or reloading a saved game unlike Oblivion.

edit: yep, sorry.

You're right, fixed. There are still vestiges of ST support:

but Skyrim doesn't use them.

It's just Oblivion now then.

Pedantic note: Skyrim doesn't use SpeedTree, trees are not generated on-the-fly

SpeedTree doesn't generate trees on-the-fly either.

But it’s important to clear up a common fallacy, he says. “It's a misconception that Speedtree generates these procedural trees on the fly, when in fact, it is an offline procedural tool. The procedural part is there, but it's just a tool that the artist uses to create the shape.”

The trees are procedurally generated during development with an easy way to generate multiple variations of the same basic tree, and the game uses those pre-generated meshes at runtime.
