    Hi everyone!

    Have you any idea how can I make my own vegetation packages similar to SpeedTree ones? I´ve been looking for documentation, tutorials, or videos but can´t find anything.

    It would be also helpful to find a package containing Seagrape and beach plants but I love the idea of learning.

    Any help will be very very useful.
    Thanks!

    Creating custom vegetation from scratch isn't an easy thing to do. In fact, it's a lot of work. What you see in that screenshot usually involves photo scanning and photogrammetry.

    Maybe take a look through Megascans?

    Thank you very much!
    I know it won´t be easy, what you see in the screenshot is just a nice photo of a real plant, I don´t think I will reach such perfection soon but realized that nobody is doing serious work with plants, like putting scientific names, for example, therefore it would be cool to learn how to do it myself.
    This Megascans site is good, do these plants work with terrain tools or just 3D prefabs to add one by one?
