Ok, that works for single textured objects such as grass and weeds as you can see in this picture

but for things like trees with a leave and bark texture its not so good. I can only use one of the textures. I made these trees in 3dsmax, would i need to make the trunk and leave part seperate?? thanks for the help Scorp.

I seperated the top of a tree from the bottom in 3dsmax and imported each seperatly in OpenZone then I was able to have a transparent top and solid trunk but what a pain in the ass to have to line all that up for each tree in Openzone, is there an easier way?

Yes, make all parts into a group so you can treat the tree as a single object..

Then you can copy and paste to make new ones. Beware! There is a bug in OZ where after you do a paste both the new item AND the ground mesh are selected! If you move the item, the ground moves too. Select something else, reselect the new object and move/rotate it where you need it.

You can also manually (read: cut and paste) this into a file and make it a mesh and put it into your mesh library.. open one up and see what it looks like and you will get the idea.

Ok , i got it . Thanks alot. I just imported the trunk and the top seperatly then grouped them before i added them to my mesh files. Works good now. See my purty trees !!

George do you still happen to have these files? All of the links (for both methods) are 404.

Thank you.
