A tree generator for ipad

You can export it as fbx.
Import to maya, 3dmax, blender etc etc

Now, this is a wonderful app, isn't it?

What is the benefit of an app like this being made for the ipad? Most of the 3d modeling apps where you would use a 3d tree are desktop applications. Is it just the convenience of mobility so you can model a tree while your eating lunch or something?

[Rich O Brien]

You can export the trees. I've had this on my iPad since launch. It's great.

[Chris Fullmer]

Sure you can export them, but then you have to go use them on a different machine.

I believe its great, it looks better than many/most other tree modelers I've seen.

But why is it on the iPad?

[Rich O Brien]

Probably because you can draw with your finger?

I don't know....

[iichiversii]

I agree with Rich, i think using your finger to make adjustments gives the user more control, i think its a great idea and may come in use

It's not on a tablet pc, it's on iPad only.
Don't make questions that have obvious answers.
My wife owns an iPad (new) but I can't start involving with itunes now, I'm a little old for such nonsenses.
BTW, the code is open and free. Maybe someone could take a look.
It's the FBX also. It isn't collada (which happens to be almost the same file)
One for sure, such trees aren't friendly to SU.

It might be convenient to install toilet paper dispensers all over the house. But why? if you always have to go back to the bathroom to actually use the toilet paper?

It's part of the New World Order, Chris. Your not supposed to question "why?"

This app is good.
Much better than some tree generators around.
Why we don't have such effective apps on a pc or a mac, this is another story.
