Tree It
Perhaps the best free tree and plant generator available today. It supports a wide range of options and exports models to FBX, OBJ, X, and DBO (Dark Basic format). A rich set of leaf and bark textures is included. The program's website offers a separate collection of ready-made tree examples for download.
Tree It is actively updated, it's likely that even more features will be added in the future.
Tree[d]
Tree generator. Creates any tree species, with models well optimized for game use. Exports to X, OBJ, and B3D formats. You can also render the tree as an image for use as an in-game billboard.
Tree[d] works as a standalone program and as a plugin for the Gile[s] lightmapper. A basic set of leaf and bark textures is included.
Note: This program may not work on modern Windows systems. In this case, DxWrapper for DirectX 7 should help. Copy the ddraw.dll, dxwrapper.dll, and dxwrapper.ini files from the archive to the program folder.
HappyTree
Another free tree generator, and it's also Open Source. Similar in functionality to Tree[d], it creates low-poly trees suitable for games. It exports to OBJ format. The project also includes the ProcTree library, which can be used to generate trees in C++ programs.
Plant Studio
A low-poly plant generator. It features animation support and a user-friendly wizard that walks you step-by-step through the process of creating a plant. Models can be exported to 3DS, LWO, OBJ, DXF, INC, and WRL formats. The program is old, but fully functional and runs smoothly on modern Windows systems. The archive includes a collection of pre-made plants.
The program has been free since 2009. To register, use the information in the REGISTER.txt file.
Creature Creator
Humanoid character generator. It works by combining various presets: you can choose the head shape, ears, nose, mouth, eyes, hands, body proportions, etc. Presets are grouped by type (fantasy, demon, cyborg, male, female, manga, etc.). The finished model can be exported to 3DS or DXF formats. A drawback is that the models lack UV map, but it can be created in other programs.
