Nightingale - Tree felling tooling

Tree felling tooling - Nightingale

Tool to generate a destructible tree asset from an input speedtree mesh.

The resulting asset composed of three meshes and a physics asset and had to have pixel-perfect alignment to the source on vertex colors, UVs and normals.

The pipeline was a combination of speedtree, Unreal blueprints, Houdini and C++ in unreal. As of patch 0.5 well over trees have been processed.
