How would I go about adding my own trees into the forest maker?

In the ForestMaker properties there is a ‘Trees to Spawn’ list. Just click the ‘+’ sign to add new element and pick your saved tree.

Is it possible to create static mesh trees using this? When I merge the actors, it puts all of the leaves off to the side of the trunk stacked on top of each other. I have also tried converting the actor to a static mesh (via 4.14’s new right-click feature) and it does the same thing. I am wanting to create a landscape of trees but I would guess that the blueprint trees that get generated are not as performance friendly as instanced static meshes.

Unfortunately the UE Merge Actors tool is still bugged and it merges the trees only partially, resulting in bad material assignment, leaf locations & pivot point. I’ve tried to find some workaround, but without luck - I’m afraid that I can’t do anything about it on my end, we can only wait for Epic to fix the merging.
