    Nice building, however I would advice reworking windows a bit, maybe try to use dark blue instead.

    Actual real life pictures are not the best choice for windows because lower floors windows are a lot darker comparing to upper floors due to the viewer's perspective. Lower floor windows reflect ground structures, upper floors windows reflect the sky.
    You could try to find the best fitting color to be used for all windows.

    I have made the layout file like 5 times in a row and still no trees...

    Could it be the game, 3D Max or the layout creator or even the OS? :unsure:

    Since I cannot make it work I'll replace all trees with custom furniture, it won't be the same but it's be something

    can you post your layout file? then we could take a look ;)
    did you use layoutfile creator for max2012 or set it up manually?

    Aha, sure thing

    Just the plug and a tree, and doesn't work. Furniture, actors and custom furniture works but trees...
    Should I extract tree models from the game, renamed them and use them as custom content?

    I have done some layout files for test before and it worked, btw

    yeah your layout file seems to be fine..
    some ideas:
    - check if the tree accidentially is inside your building
    - try pharmists tree bug fix
    - try out another type of tree

    :think:

    <LayoutEntry>
    <ID>Tree001</ID>
    <Type>TREE</Type>
    <PrototypeFile>data/design/decoration/tree/fringe/bushes_fri_junglebrush.class</PrototypeFile>
    <Position>-0.0018726,-14.7378,0.447661</Position>
    <Rotation>0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0</Rotation>
    <Scale>0.55,0.55,0.55</Scale>
    <Tree>
    <PresenceProbability>1.0</PresenceProbability>
    <ScaleRandom_Min>0.4</ScaleRandom_Min>
    <ScaleRandom_Max>0.55</ScaleRandom_Max>
    </Tree>
    </LayoutEntry>
    <LayoutEntry>

    <PrototypeFile>data/design/decoration/tree/allam/t_all_camphor01.class</PrototypeFile>
    <PrototypeFile>data/design/decoration/tree/no_cultured_tree/t_noc_azalea01.class</PrototypeFile>
