This tutorial was gorgeous. Everything very comprehensible, I have the feeling to have understood every detail, which is usually not the case with complex tutorials. I don't think I need any other tutorial for also generating a forest landscape. In the past I already created scattered landscapes, but with placing every single element by hand, and it would really not make sense to keep about going with such a clunky workflow. Also since it limits you incredibly by not easily being able to re-arrange the landscape. I have never yet worked with particles or geonodes, but with this tutorial, it should be easy to accomplish. It's easily a 10/10 from me.

There's no strange reason blender uses 'Z' up infact it's the most accurate way, unlike many other software. In mathematics, the Z axis is normally defined as up, while the X and Y axes define a flat ground plane. Most 3d cad softwares also uses Z up.

The „strange reason“ was referring to blender using y axis for up in particle systems but then using z everywhere else

This might help anyone dealing with trees that don’t move with the camera. The particle system method didn’t work for me, possibly because rotation there is applied independently of the object’s constraints. Instead, I managed to achieve the effect using geometry nodes, though I had to adjust some settings. In the "Align Euler to Vector" node, I switched the axis to Z and rotated the normals in my tree collection by 180 degrees. This adjustment displayed the trees correctly, allowing them to move with the camera and create a 3D effect.

Thank you very much for this tutorial! This comes in very handy for recreating the alpine area around Innsbruck in Blender for a racing game. One possible improvement though for this specific scene's realism that I have to add from my professional background: You're adding exclusively broadleaved trees, which of course creates a nice colorful impression, and is in line with your previous tutorial; it makes total sense from that perspective; I just have to add that particularly oak trees in real life don't like the shown environment too much, which very much comes across as a cold, high-mountainous to alpine environment with those snow-covered peaks. Up there in that climate, they get overshadowed by coniferous trees quite regularly on European, American and Asian mountain ranges, as they can deal with the cold and snow much better and they displace the broadleaves species quite effectively, even though there is often some maple and beech mixed in with them in a natural mountain forest there. So to faithfully represent a mountainous scene like this, one should replace the oaks by some coniferous trees like pine, larch, spruce and fir, in fact at least half the trees you'd find in such a climate will be coniferous. Loads of coniferous trees with their typical dark, bluish-green appearance and "spikey" shape will of course make a visual difference from warm-color, "ball-shaped" broadleaves species from miles away, and a lack of them is indeed quite noticable and may feel off on renders to people like myself - even though the warmer colors of the broad-leaved species will certainly make it look more appealing :). One could add in more larch as a replacement, if the color palette needs to be warmed up..

i might be incorrect, but isnt the whole camera tracking from the previous video lost on the particles? So they dont turn with the camera?

Maybe you have this in your master 3D environments course, but what seems to be missing for me is how to make sure the environment is at the right scale.

I was having some issues with black areas where the trees were denser but found that turning up the transparent value in light passes by a small amount seemed to fix the issue if anybody else runs into the same problem.

I did a test to scatter an object using geometry nodes and particle system to scatter it and the particle system file was much smaller.

Great tutorial, thanx a lot! One question: The 3D objects point to the camera. OK. But angles arise where they point at right angles to the sun and the shadow will therefore disappear for all objects. How can you complement the Geo Nodes so that each object has a duplicate that is invisible to the camera and points to the sun (so it will cast a shadow)?

Seems like the tutorial from making the trees follow the camera, doesn't work with the Particle System. it is not following the camera/point I am trying to track, even though the original are following. It is just the ones in the particle system not working

Yeah, if they are far away from the camera, it could totally work! Of course, you would need to adapt the technique and maybe use cubes instead of planes, but I think it's worth trying. ~ Masha

The camera alignment part for the geonodes method does not work for me. When I replicate your node setup, all the trees rotate the at the same angle according to the camera's rotation instead of rotating at different angles to face the camera object.
