Just a heads up on 1.4, i've re-worked the editor's billboard exporting, it'll support alpha transparencies now so the backdrops are much cleaner! Also im installing the smooth-fade transiton set to 1.4. It'll fade the billboard to inital mesh much more cleaner as well. Installed support for the first extension pack 'treeparty shrub pack' think theres a shrub showing in the screenshot below.
Have a peek at 1.4's new backdrop and alpah billboarding:
