...and one more request in such a tool it's usefull having the Esc key available, to stop the process if it take too long than expected

That is easier said than done. It's difficult to get any key press events while scripts are running. Though I thing Fredo has some feature like that...

Really funny thank you tak2hata!

Wow!
Amazing tool.
I've just downloaded it and can't wait to start (playing) experimenting

THANKS!

olishea

so much fun!!

would be nice if there was a "set defaults" button....and if it remembered your settings between tweaking.

would also be good if the grass was automatically placed on a new layer so you can quickly turn it off or on....you could render the scene without the geometry even being present.

I believe so... eg 'round corner' can do it

I updated the plugin. it's version 1.0.

I saw some requests now.
It seems to be difficult in my skill.
Hereafter, I will study Ruby more.

beautiful plugin.

I placed the grass on hidden layer and replaced the component with a single line. Then rendered in twilight using "render all hidden layers" option.

so each line represents blade of grass.

That's my nostril form inside, Oli

Definitely a very promising plugin! I really need to try it out (and Twilight's and Kerkythea's instancing abilities during rendering makes it easy to use hopefully)

Hi, thomas.
I am variously studying the article on this site.
Especially, Optimazition tips in Developer forum.
It's very useful.
Thanks.

gai: just place the grass on a hidden layer and tell twilight to render all hidden layers. then bobs your uncle. its very very easy to do. you dont even need to rplace the grass with lines, i just did it so i knew where the grass was.

right click>twilight>render all hidden layers

and yes it is very nasal!

Looks great, I haven't tried this yet, but I'm surprised nobody has posted a beard on Sang or a chi-Sang with grass growing off his head.

olishea

yeah sorry about that

DavidBoulder

No problem, I just missed it. Looks kind of like bigfoot.

the component instance is great but as you can see by the results they're not nearly as nice as without it. is they're any way to improve this? perhaps if thomthom code for 'group to component' were somehow utilized to recognize the individuals even though there are slight variations. or maybe if a small group (6-12~) was made into a component and instanced instead of each individual?

unclex

it's wonderful
thx

if you look at the image it seems to have something to do with rotation (gravity) as well??
