MSFoliage MSFoliage

Grow trees and plants for Unreal.

MSFoliage generates trees, shrubs and other plants you shape by trunk, branches, leaves and bark. Watch them sway in the wind, then export meshes for Unreal Engine.

Grow from a species

Start from common hazel, European beech, quaking aspen or Norway maple. Or build a plant from scratch.

tune

Shape every part

Control trunk lean and flare, branch density, angle and droop, leaf shape and bark furrows. The seed keeps each result repeatable.

Wind that moves it

Preview wood and leaves swaying in the viewport, or bake wind into vertex colours on the exported mesh.
