Title: Corona Trees

Very good plugin, I really like it.

But what about default archicad trees?

Hi. Not an ArchCAD, but you're obviously having problem with the Alpha setting in the leaf material. Is that the problem you're talking about?

It is default archicad leaf material with alpha settings and you can see that it works fine in cinerender, but seems like there are no such alpha settings in corona.

It is pretty low poly models and this is their advantage for faster rendering. But may be I should use some other more detailed trees or there are some way to make them work?

Hi,
I don't know how Corona is implemented in archicad, but if you load leaf textures with Corona bitmap, then look for channel outputs in its settings. Mono channel should be set to image alpha and not to RGB intensity.
