load and position them , here are some commands to look into...

Load object "file name.filetype", object number

Position object, object number,x,y,z

To create lots of trees and bushes, use a command like this...

For trees=1 to 30
load object "tree.x",trees
position object trees,rnd(50),rnd(50),rnd(50)
next trees

that will create around 30 trees, and position them randomly, just replace the filename I listed, with the filename of your trees and you should be set to go!

Guns arn't the problem, people are the problem, shoot all the people and guns arn't a problem anymore.

Thanks for the link JulesD. I didn't know that they had a free version that allowed u to save and export.

ok... I have made my tree using TREEmagik, now how do I load the tree using DBPro. The program saves the files as .tmg, .a3d, and .b3d. As far as I know DBPro doesn't support any of these. Is there a way to still load them, such as converting the file type?

As far as I know, I don't think you can convert those type of files. Correct if I'm wrong anybody. But it looks as if your going to have to flop down some cash to get the full version. Then you can export the textures and save your tree as an x file for DBPro. Hope this was helpful.

You can really speed things up by using INSTANCE OBJECT instead of
LOAD OBJECT for trees 2 through 29... I saw this mentioned a billion times in general forum but never gave it a shot, but once I did was amazed at the difference. Play with that and also CLONE OBJECT to see which may be right for you...

To save resources you may also want to load one or two trees and then clone them to put on your landscape.
