Camera-facing billboards on 3ds max

[marcelo fernandes]

Hey, guys. So, here's what i was thinking about:

 

In my quick test renders, I use 3d people so that i won't have to go photoshop everytime i change a window 5cm to the left or whatever. The thing is that we have this Evermotion 3d people pack which kind of sucks and i can't seem to find any other 3d people pack that looks natural and doesn't take 2 hours to render.

 

The guys who use SU+vray in my office have their life made a lot easier in some ways and I feel so jealous when I see them put these dynamic-camera-facing-components, being trees, people, etc. It's just so pratical and simple. I wish I could do that.

 

The only way I found till now is to use forest pack and it's not that it doesn't work, but it's not as simple as in SU and, obviously, I have to make my own libraries and so on. Not bad, but forest pack was primarly made for trees, right? heheheh

 

Anyways, does anyone know of any plugin/script that can help with this?

 

Thanks in advance, guys!!
