hello,
things seem to be going along swimmingly.
great advice given here, and the usual willingness of the more adept to help those struggling to play again this ancient game.
i salute you.

if i remember correctly - the tree settings were included in the config files but the 3d models did not make it into the game due to current "average computer" capabilities of computers in that era - marketing stuff. the screenshot mentioned may have been a prerelease ad circulated by electron arts. flexman would know. you still around?

anyway, keep up the good work - i have to go scratch this itch to come back in now.
