I've never used T-Gen, so I can't speak for its process, but I can promise you that for any tree model you even want to think about using in Battlefront, a pine tree branch (and pine needles) are going to have all of their detail come from a texture and not from any modeling. You need to work on getting a good set of textures and just make your "leaves" flat polygons.

If I remember correctly the tut on the T-gen website is about making apine tree.
Large branches can be made as branches, all the rest will have to be textured leaves.

Something to remember when using TGen to make battlefront models:

Minimum sides you can have on a branch is 6. Any less and the end segments will disappear no matter what you do.

Skyhammer do you ever think you will make a tutorial for this because I only saw one for T-Gen and it was for the old one witch made it hard to follow. Also do you think you could give me a link to the tut.
