<p>Hi,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm using SU8 on Win 7 64-bit machine, and am experimenting with plants for the first time. Ran into some problems yesterday, so made sure I had the latest versions of IRender (KC23), library, and tree maker installed. Still have the same problems today.</p>

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I'm using SU8 on Win 7 64-bit machine, and am experimenting with plants for the first time. Ran into some problems yesterday, so made sure I had the latest versions of IRender (KC23), library, and tree maker installed. Still have the same problems today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If I open nXt Plant/ Rp TreeMaker and choose "load from library", there are unfortunately no palms. If I go to "Create Rp TreeMaker Plant", all's well, except that I have "File", "Raytrace", and "View", but not the "Type" that's shown in the video tutorial. Without that, I apparently can't make any type of palm! Working in Southern California, and in high-fire-hazard country to boot, having no palms renders this feature quite worthless. Is there a way to get that back? Or to download an earlier version that still had the palms?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I've experimented with the "Load AccuRender AR3 Plant from library", which has a great variety of plant material that's useful to me, but the quality is nowhere near that of the TreeMaker plants. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>For what it's worth, the other odd thing about AR3 plants is that after placing them, they don't cast shadows in SU, and they disappear when rendered. I've discovered that even though the component is set to cast shadows, the two images within the component aren't. I've also discovered that I need to explode the component and then remake it before it will show in a render. Both of those issues are easily enough fixed, but odd.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Any hope of getting palms in TreeMaker???</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks</p>
