      This is just brilliant.. Don't know how i missed this for so long. Now that vray2.0 is proxy enables the possibilities are limitless.. Convert a grass component into a proxy on sk (Though 3dsmax allows the porxy to be simplified further), import it into the model and scatter the proxy. You have a feather weight model with the punch of a heavy weight! Awesome work tak2hata! 😍

      this was my first attempt at grass..

          Yes. It does work on SketchUp 2014. The first thing you need to do to get help making it work is give specific and useful information. How did you install it? Which version? What are you expecting to see that you aren't seeing?

                Hi,brylie10.
                Please set more high value for "Max Number"
                That is limitation of fur blades number on one face.
                Max Number on dialog
                Right Image is Inputbox dialog.
                Left Image is Webdialog.

                            Hi !
                            This is such a great plugin but I'm just having troubles to make a grass area by spraying a proxy grass made previously. I've tried different size of proxy, even a little sized bunch of grass but I still don't understand why sketch up is spreading my proxy everywhere in the scene (even on different heights). No matter what area I selected on my mesh (google earth terrain) it doesn't stick grass proxy to it but does a big crow all over my scene. Is that anything related to the fact i'm trying to apply it on a mesh, I saw a russian using "make fur" with proxy on a handmade mesh and he could apply it without troubles. I'm stuck with that, could you help me ? thanks πŸ˜„

                              I've read the documentation and this whole thread but I still can't get my head around the axis configuration.

                              I have this component

                              Screen Shot 2015-05-11 at 23.13.02.png

                              and I want the flag's front face facing the camera but all I get is this

                              Screen Shot 2015-05-11 at 23.13.53.png

                              If i fiddle with direction and force I can kinda close to what I'm aiming for

                              Screen Shot 2015-05-11 at 23.14.43.png

                              but the flags are tilted and I still think that I'm missing something here. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?

                              Thanks guys!

                                There is a degree of randomness in the Fur component-placement settings.
                                You need to play with that to get near what you want.

                                Alternatively look at the 'ComponentSpray' plugin, with appropriate settings it should also do what you want.

                                To make all of your component-instances 'face' the same way, you could select them and run a snippet in the Ruby Console. Something like:

                                m=Sketchup.active_model;s=m.selection.grep(Sketchup;;ComponentInstance).select{|i|i.definition.name="MyFlag"};m.start_operation("!");s.each{|i|t=i.transformation;x=t.xaxis;a=X_AXIS.angle_between(x);v=x.cross(X_AXIS);v=Z_AXIS if v.length==0;i.transform!(Geom;;Transformation.rotation(t.origin,v,a))};m.commit_operation;
                                

                                Replace the component's name with the actual one!
                                This is one step undo-able.

                                  Thanks TIG. That sounds like a sofisticated way. Never ran anything from the Ruby console. I'll give it a try.
                                  I did however use the make crowd option and found it to produce a somewhat more pleasing result.

                                    Hi guys,

                                    This plugin has absolutely changed my life with Sketchup being a landscape designer, i use it all the time.
                                    I do have a similar problem though to a previous poster and couldn't see a solution from reading through. Essentially, i select an area, a grass component and then generate and it throws components outside the selected area - see screenshot showing this and my Fur settings....

                                        Have you tried reading the usage notes.
                                        Perhaps you have a setting that ignores the selection ?
                                        Perhaps posting a screenshot or two would elicit more help...

                                            Maybe the component axes are misplaced?
