nildoe Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Hi Eduard, I wanted to try and recreate an Evermotion Plant i have because id like to use wind with it, and if i select subobject faces in the trunk and then apply the Exlevel on it it does not work.. i tried making a simple test... made a plane converted to poly, selected some faces and exlevel works on it..but on a simple sphere same prrcedure, exlevel is not applied on the selected sub objects of the sphere.., what am i doing wrong?

Eduard Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Hi Nildo, I just checked with a sphere, everything works fine. Maybe you forgot something? Increase the Density, turn on the Use Selected SubObjects... Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nildoe Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Hi..I was using the 1.8.5 beta for some reason it was not working now with 1.8.6 is working.. But now another thing, im trying to follow EVERY step of the tutorial "http://exlevel.com/tutorials/HowToCreateASimpleTree/" and when i get to the part where you say "As a result, you'll get a tree model as shown in the picture below:" where u see the orange branches for the 1st time, in my tree i get VERY FEW branches , i dunno whats happening, i went thru again and again and all values i'm using are the same as the tutorial's values for all the red frames. midwayTothetutorial.max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we forgot to specify that the Unit calc in the Preference parameters equal to 10,0 cm. In your case it will be equal to 0,1 m. Thanks for your remark!

nildoe Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Ahh ouf! growfx is such a complete but also complicated tool that i thought i slipped somewhere..thx eduard So.. in my case that i use meters as display units and inches as system units, what would be correct way to model a tree is it alsways using 0,1m in the Unit Calc?

Yes, use 0,1m in the Unit Calc. Just if you use the same size of the tree as in the tutorial, then your system units can be any.
