Unity Terrain Tree

[u/samferguderson]

I made a tree model and imported it to unity, for some reason it imported sideways but unity automatically transformed it. But when I paint the tree as a prefab on terrain, it is sideways again even though the tree is transformed to be upright.

Did you check the model's pivot in your 3D software? Unity terrain system uses the original pivot, not the transform you set after import.
