Just a test... not even a wip...
Max Design 2010, Forestpack Pro and MW2
A plane 600X600m, converted to editable poly, trasformed to a mountain with noise brush and mesh smooth...
One forest object with 3 trees (2nd image) rendered in Maxwell, initial image at 2000X1500 for approx 30min...
You can understand that there are many trees there...
First image shows the forest, second shows the tree models used (Dosch 3d)
