What Maxtree is
Maxtree provides professional 3D vegetation assets for architectural visualization, VR and AR, games, and cinematic CG projects. Its catalog contains more than 15,000 plant models and ecosystem assets, covering trees, shrubs, flowers, grass, and related environments. Models include high-resolution Albedo, Glossiness, Normal, Opacity, and Translucency PBR maps. Downloads are available in FBX, Mesh, GrowFX + Mesh, MAX, C4D, Maya, Blender, VRScene, UE, and TMI formats. GrowFX original files require 3ds Max to open. Supported software includes 3ds Max 2020+, Blender 3.3.1+, Cinema 4D R23+, Maya 2020+, SketchUp, Rhino, Revit, Unreal Engine 5.3.2+, and Twinmotion 2024.1+.
