## Reviews

### "Speedtree for realistic vegetation" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *11 May 2020* | Computer Games | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: SpeedTree is the industry standard for the creation of vegetation and tree simulation video games. It gives a pretty realistic look and more tree-like than a ZBrush sculpt.
> 
> **Cons**: It could take a lot of practice to get the exact result you want but there's a lot of tutorials out there that can help you.
> 
> exploring the Speedtree is fun and the asset has a realistic look.  Also easy to use and tutorials are easily accessible.

### "A must for modern gaming" — 5.0/5

> **Andreas** | *28 June 2019* | Animation | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: -Easy to use&#10;-Robust feature list&#10;-AAA capabilities&#10;-Intuitive controls&#10;-Necessary
> 
> **Cons**: -Some compatibility issues&#10;-It has crashed for me multiple times
> 
> If you are making a game or an animation that heavily utilizes trees you NEED speed tree. You can create beautiful trees from mobile game quality, to movie quality, thanks to Speedtrees feature-list. It gives you a small sample of examples that help you jump in and learn, and otherwise it's very easy to use.

### "I've used SpeedTree for Games while developing a game that needed a very specific type of tree" — 4.0/5

> **Ryan** | *8 August 2017*
> 
> **Pros**: As it's name suggests, SpeedTree is a very fast, fluid and complete tool for making trees for games, and I've loved how, besides fast, it was really customizable and robust. I could make the exact tree I needed for my game
> 
> **Cons**: It took me some time to get used to how exactly it works, specially with the branches. Not sure if I missed it ate the time, but some tips would be useful

### "Used it to generate trees for Unreal" — 5.0/5

> **David** | *27 April 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use, and quite deep at that \! You can almost create every kind of trees you imagine and refine parameters to get the best looking tree for your needs. I love to use it each time to get new trees and personnalize my VR scenes \!
> 
> **Cons**: Maybe the price, and the fact that sometimes you can get lost in the parameters, they are so many \!\!\!\!
