Yeah what jfk said really - the question was about trees, and I said a very simple solution, not even crafted really, off the top of my head. The entity color idea was fresh in my mind because I had just used it recently for a neat effect with hot water and my main character.
RifRaf's idea is far more creative and what a neat idea to use lightmaps! I'm gonna look into that myself now. Fab work RifRaf!
The other person to ask, but he's away in Europe next week, is Josh at Leadwerks, as he released a b3d demo a while back, with trees casting shadows onto the floor and moving in synch with the trees branches. There's a video on his website with it in.
