 Before exporting a tree for Unity, be sure that your tree is set up for real-time use by using [[kcgameslod|LOD]]. Also ensure that wind is correctly set for Unity by setting the fan to [[windlegacy|Legacy UE4/Unity mode]] and tuning the wind effects, if necessary. Before exporting a tree for Unity, be sure that your tree is set up for real-time use by using [[kcgameslod|LOD]].

-If this is the first time exporting to Unity, be sure to pick one of the Unity presets in the [[expgame|export mesh dialog]], to ensure all the export settings are correct for Unity. Export an ''.st'' file directly into the Assets directory of your Unity project. Be sure to wait until the export process is complete before switching back to Unity for the import. You can also export it to another directory and copy it into your Unity assets, but be sure to copy the mesh and all of the textures at the same time before switching back into Unity. Otherwise, the importer will not be able to find the textures. You may be prompted to fix normal maps after import, so select “Fix now” and the import process will continue.+If this is the first time exporting to Unity, be sure to pick one of the Unity presets in the [[expgame|export mesh dialog]], to ensure all the export settings are correct for Unity.
