Good first attempt.

Any chance we can get leaves that look less hairy (and diffuse) and more leafy?

How far can you push the branching? (i.e. many more and longer branches)

I'd guess that since the leaves are hair you may be able to use any leaf picture you want?

Yeah? neah?

More importantly though... I cannot see the download... Am I dense or what?

sure can!
but i've created the example in 10.5 and realized too late that it doesnt have leaf images.
the plugin SHOULD work fine in 11.0 though.

on my machine the unzipped file goes to C:\Programme\Hash Inc\V10.5\hxt. likely on your computer the folders wont read german ("program files" ?).

also download the project file, then just rightclick in the sction window and do as the BEFORE-image above shows.

Tested in Beta 3 before I realized you'd said v10.5. Seems to work fine.
I'm still trying to figure out how hair fits in though.
Going into v10.5 to see what (if anything) may be different.


I assume I need to create a group of the leaf areas and apply a hair system material. Checking v10.5 to see if this is a correct assumption.

Attached: first screenshot of my first tree created with Marcel's Treeez plugin. Tweaked the base to get a bit more root stickin' out. I like thus far...

if you use the supplied .prj file you wont need to create this group.
the plugin will will the existing groups for you (this screenshot is taken in 11.0: hair images are awesome smile.gif ):

Marcel,

As you can see from my added screenshot (2 posts back) no materials were generated. Maybe I broke it after I downloaded... I'll look into it.

I thought your plugin created the material/hair stuff so was surprised when I didn't see it wink.gif
