models for kitchen garden/farm ?

[juju4]

Hello,

I'm looking for models to use for kitchen garden and farm (banana tree, orange, ...) and not found anything for now.

It seems there is this old feature request but nothing much
http://sourceforge.net/p/sweethome3d/fe ... uests/139/

is there a way to just use a 2D plan w a texture to represent it ?

Thanks a lot.
Cheers

Designing isn't the main feature of Sweet Home 3D until now, and designing trees is complicate.

is there a way to just use a 2D plan w a texture to represent it ?

You can do that with a PNG image using transparency, that you'll import as a texture and apply on a thin box.

SH3D was and is developed with the intent of interior decoration as its main purpose.

If you want to use SH3D to design gardens and such, you will notice that using models of trees and shrubs will slow the program down very, very much. This is caused by the gigantic number of surfaces (read: leaves) that have to calculated for every movement or change in perspective.

With this specialized search you can try to design a garden, without the problems mentioned above.

Clearly I was not looking on designing objects.
I'm aware of performance issues for tree, that's why I was suggesting the plane+texture.

As for now, I'm asking myself to switch to Sketchup for case where there is exterior too, even if I find SweetHome3d easier.

Thanks for the quick feedback.
