echo system- animated objects

#1

hi all,
I am using VueXstream 7.4 and iam new to this software.
i want to use vue trees for bit closeups/mid shots.

1)Vue tree leaf planes count can we increase?? otherwise in silhouettes its looking

really bad. In plant editor> randomness/fexibilty/curl not much use, becoz its working

on overall planes.
Or anybody knows about subsets how to add?

2)Any option for animted objects import?? expect collada import, i tried everything

its not working. Any .vob plugin for maya??

  1. To make Hi-resolution leaves/ to break the silhouettes i painted echo system on

the tree leaf cards.

But if edit the tree or with Wind animation its not working ( means its not moving along

with that object)

“Vue tree leaf planes count can we increase??”

Nope, controlled by species, you would need to choose a better quality, higher resolution species.

“Or anybody knows about subsets how to add?”

Not possible, once again, controlled by species.

"3) To make Hi-resolution leaves/ to break the silhouettes i painted echo system on

Painted and populated objects are stationary. Best solution is to turn off wind/breeze on the trunk/branches of the tree you are populating onto.
I use material population on branch materials of leafless trees for this. But the branches of the main can not move with the wind/breeze or it wont match, but the ecosystem will work. Dynamic population will not correct the placement issues, as the tree would only move through the population.

You can make some very realistic plants this way.

This is a crabapple tree I created with this technique.
