Hi,

When facing this kind of issue, you can check more details under the General > Forest Stats window. It should give you a hint of where the problem is. In the case of big areas or high density, you may reach the Max items / Max faces for viewport / render limits, and you may need to increase some of them. Since the Forest Pack Pro/Lite 5.0.5, "All scattering limits (Distribution > Max. Density, Display > Max Items/Faces) can be disabled by setting the value to zero." It's also possible to set them from Maxscript in the following way:

$.maxdensity = 0
$.vmaxitems = 0
$.rmaxitems = 0
$.maxfaces = 0

Please feel free to have a look at this related post (https://forum.itoosoft.com/faq/'some-forest-were-not-built-correctly-in-the-last-render'-error/) regarding the error message ("Some forests were not built correctly in the last render").

I hope that helps.

Best regards,
