"You might have to create your own tree to get this good a quality. Our trees
extract much faster because we re-render the trees from the original
definitions, rather than exporting all the faces and images. You can rotate our
trees easily, but there is no good way to scale them yet. (The height is
determined by the age of the tree. You can easily make a few different versions
of the tree at different ages.

You trees are groups, so it would be hard to replace them easily. If they were components, you could create a new tree."

Does anyone have some advice on the easiest way to replace existing trees in a model with trees from the library?
Links for Aidan Chopra Sketchup for Dummies and his Youtube vid - replacing components with other components - obviously the trees to be replace need to be components, and I believe the library trees are components.

Thanks Richcat. His existing trees are groups. But it may be fairly easy to point to them one at a time and make them components.
How about Thomthom plugin "Groups to Components" on sketchucation
Hi Guys, for some reason (no permission) I cannot download this useful plug in...can someone help?
My problem is I have a large file that i am trying to create animations/renders for but timing out/locking up. The trees are pretty complicated groups that i grabbed from sketchup warehouse, copied multiple times, scaled randomly and rotated randomly. I now need to replace all of these hopefully in one hit with a new component. If i create a simple tree using treemaker and use it to replace the existing groups (transformed into components using the plug in) i am hoping they will be automatically, scaled, rotated etc... is this wishful thinking???? Anyone else done something like this to reduce model complexity?

Its ok guys, ive just downloaded from the Ruby website. ill give it a test run and see how i go simplifying my model for rendering and animation creation.
