How do I make trees in UE4?

OK. I need to make trees for my game. As speed tree is not available yet which seems silly to have not included it in the first place. How do I make trees for my game??

Hi Blakey876,

Until SpeedTree is readily available (which you can check out their blog at this link) you will need to use a 3D modeling software package like 3Ds Max, Maya, or Blender to make you’re Trees/Bushes.

Alternatively, There are a couple of trees and bushes that are included with the Blueprints Office and Mobile Template that could be migrated to your projects. There are also sites like Turbosquid that sell 3d models to use in projects.

I hope this helps you until the final integration of SpeedTree.

Thanks!
