 SpeedTree wind tends to have many, many different parts moving independently at different frequencies. Due to this, it can be difficult to make a looping animation seamless. Starting in SpeedTree 9, a new "Loop" option is available that attempts to allow this by using geometry morphing/interpolation. An extra portion of wind animation is computed before the exported animation, and is then interpolated to  at the end of the export, providing a seamless loop transition. SpeedTree wind tends to have many, many different parts moving independently at different frequencies.

 >**Note:** When wind speeds are very different at the start and end of the animation (due to use of [[windvfx#gusting|gusting]] or [[tooltimeline#wind|timeline wind]], the loop seam can be more noticeable. Maintain similar wind situations at the start and end of the animation for a more seamless transition. >**Note:** When wind speeds are very different at the start and end of the animation (due to use of [[windvfx#gusting|gusting]] or [[tooltimeline#wind|timeline wind]], the loop seam can be more noticeable.
