Forest Dat s how?

[davidaward]

Hi all,

I've been wondering about this for a while now- a route I'm working on has a very densely vegetated area. A forest file or two would severly reduce the object count which I fear is reaching its maximum permitted on the tile, with many more to go. I've tried searching but can't fid much about creating forests, anyone any ideas?

PS its in a steep valley too, so hopefully forests will be able to deal with changing altitude.

Thanks for any help

David

Dunno yet- had the hand injury before Christmas and the SVR has been very time consuming since New Year, been there all weekend for two on the trot- may find time in the summer though, after all they only operate Summer Sundays at West lancs.

Treeclumps beat the hell out of forests any day as there is more variety in them. Just "N" them a bit as long as the grade is not too steep otherwise they'll look awful. Forests have the same tree 1000 times over and are only visible from a kilometre away

You won't see many forests in my routes. Aaargh

Cheers for the advice, but my route ain't suitable for tree clumps- its a very steep sided valley.
