I am trying to make some leaves/thorns on one of my models. I am pretty sure it is possible, I just don't know how to do it. I would just make a bunch of triangles but that would most likely lag battlefront since I am putting quiet a few in my map. I don't really what them to be cloth but if that is my only choice I'll do it. Here is what I am trying to acheive.

use transparency, make a conelike shaped round of polygons around the trunk and put either one repeating texture with one leaf or one texture with multiple leafes in a row on it (with transparency aroud the leafes of course) and give the polygons
hardedged doublesided transparency.

No need. The effect you want to achieve is possible with Hex Editing.
