What are the odds of REALLY giving this away, as in providing the source files so that we can learn how it all works, as well as giving the community a chance to customize it further?

Please consider this, it would really help the community, I believe.

You know that Windcatcher includes several (5 I think) complete zones, source and everything, with openzone (or as a seperate download), don't you?

These are great examples on how things work, and gives something that can be customized.

Yeah but none with trees that I saw.

Trees and object masks are the hard part of using OZ I think.

Huh? All of my zones use trees. The tree objects come with OpenZone and are in the mesh library.

I think they are talking about how to use different trees and how to get them into Openzone like these.

All of which can be found by searching and asking questions, I had to search long and hard and get some advice from others before I could get them to work (thanks Scorp) and no matter how many models I give them they will not know how to use Openzone correctly without really wanting to and putting the effort forward like I had to. I dont know what exactly this person wants from me but I am happy to give zones I make away and honestly a little upset at them saying "If I REALLY wanted to give stuff away" well i had went through alot of work to give away what i did and now I suggest that if you want more then I have given then get off your butt and LEARN like I had too....thanks

(jaw drops)

My God, those are gorgeous. I can't wait to see them ingame in SimpleClient. The gist of tree leaf textures is that they need to be fully-32-bit textures, that is, with alpha transparency. OpenZone has a menu entry that will convert a masked texture to a fully alpha-transparent one (where "masked" means you have a single color representing the transparent areas AND that color exists at the image corners so OpenZone can identify it).

Nice Sakrateri on adding the original CSHome npc's.
