3DMK Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 I think it's better to develop a plugin texture, which will divide the bitmap into equal parts using the input gradient, for example,from vertex colors. What do you think about this? Today we'll try to develop this plugin... Cheers Sounds awesome Eduard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davius Posted March 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 What can I say?... after so many days working on this all I can say is THANKS! HUGE thanks!! This can literally save me HOURS of work! This is the best buy I've ever made to 3dsMax! And just for the fun of it, here's how the coconut tree is looking textured (NOT USING THE PLUGIN EDUARD DEVELOPED): @3DMK - I'm going to post the GFX file so everybody can take a look. I expect lots of newbie mistakes pointed out so I can improve, ok?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davius Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 So, I guess I'm stepping a little back from the coconut tree making and, as promised, here are the gfx files: Big Coconut Tree http://www.sendspace.com/file/jtv70u Small Coconut Tree http://www.sendspace.com/file/kwdzum And here's the video with a preview of the big coconut tree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davius Posted March 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 @3DMK did you download the coconut tree gfx file? If you or Eduard find any errors PLEASE tell me ok?!

Eduard Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Here too the link appears as dead (error 404). Just when I was about to download it... Oh, sorry, just ".dlt" file for our server was as unknown type. Now fixed! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3DMK Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Thanks so much for the latest awesome feature Eduard!! I think this is a huge time-saver & really helps to add heaps more realism. There are so many ways you could use this plugin, it even works on ANY objects/geometry that have vertex colours, not just GrowFX objects. It is working fine with no bugs [as usual].....I even tried it in a vray material & it works fine. Cheers Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
