      Hi,

      I've recently experimented a bit to produce a Wisteria. Unfortunately I was not so successful. Then I have reinstalled the "0.63 beta". The result is now that no Ivy texture appears and Wisteria leaves also still appears. What is wrong?

        I do have a couple of those installed as well. But I think it due to the sketchy physics, I installed this lately and before that it was always working. But I got it to work again after changes to lines of code (see tomasz's tips) there's one doneside on that. I hardly renders leaves know!? So I think I need to take a closer look now.
        What's also weird is that io never got your version to work in iether su7 or 8, I would only work in su6.

          Charley,
          are the Materials showing up in the browser when you launch Ivy?
          and does the script have Tigs mod??

            Hi John,

            no, only the material for the tribe. Yes I have installed the "TIG mod".

                John,

                yes i did. I have looked again at the contents of the texture folder (see pictures below). Can it be that something is missing here?

                  I think it's to do with the image file name, I remember re-naming a complete set to replace the originals when I was playing with it.

                  early in the thread someone supplied a modified Textures folder [with different leafs], maybe look at that...

                    John,

                    I've tried the modified folder but no change. Even if the textures folder was deleted, wisteria, and ivy leaves appear the same. I do not understand, this is crazy!

                      Dear members,

                      I need an idea from you. How can I eliminate this material Wisteria? I've searched the entire hard disk, but these "Wisteria.png" is nowhere to be found. But these png must be stored somewhere. I feel like a beginner.

                          I give it up now. Now the plugin is working again. But now some leaves are again transparent and others not. I probably do not understand the workings of this plugin. I'll wait for an update. 😢

                            THat's due to the prob that 2 images arent transparent png's open these to in a image editor and make them transparent and than re-import them into SU

                              Thanks for your answer. I have converted the jpg to png. I do not know if I've done anything wrong. I have attached the pngs below. If you watch it once I would be grateful.

                                You seem to be going round in circles.

                                      Did you mean, "it would be nice with" or "Could you please"? 😉

                                      Just saying, the wording can make a difference. Making freeware stuff and you end up with lots of demands from your users, it can get a bit tiresome. (Spoken by someone who makes lots of freeware.)
