How to taper branch and trunk ends?

Hi, I recently installed speedtree and am very new to it. I was playing around with the software and noticed my trees and branches are open cones at the end rather than tapered like branches should be. Any idea on how to solve this? Thank you!

Sounds like you need to add cap nodes to the end of your branches

You have a couple options here that you can use.

  1. Like @B1gPictur3 said, you can use caps. You can add cap to your branch by going to Add->Cap.

  2. You can decrease the right side of the profile curve for Skin->Radius. This will make the branch taper at the end more and has the added benefit of not introducing more polygons if that is a concern.

I hope this helps!
