Change the RPC tree sketch

[Anonymous]

Hello,

Is it possible to change the sketch profile of the RPC trees? I use the RPC trees also in shaded views, and are missing some tree profiles.

it doesn't look like you can change the sketch profile of the tree family or any rpc content from what I can tell.

You can't change the RPC outline billboards.  They follow the extents of the jpg file used for the RPC, but you can create a visibility parameter to turn it off and bring in other geometry to replace the billboards.  In my example here I replaced the billboards with a "lollipop" tree.  Ya know Candyland style.

I know this is pretty Old, but from Loboarch is saying, it implies that if I go into Photoshop and edit the rendered perimeter of my Tree Picture that it should auto-update the profile in the RPC family.  Is this a correct assumption?

I'm still having some trouble getting the content to actually load.  I have two decent quality pictures of the tree I'm trying to build, but I haven't had too much luck getting it imported yet.
