Hi, all GoodMen!
How can I Make My own brush? which doesn’t appear in the PaintEffects visor?
In my case, I want to take a leaf that I had prepare, and to scatter a lot like it on a road?
Thanks a lot!

Unfortunately, you can’t ‘create’ your own paintFX brush, you can however take an existing one, and modify it to your liking - such as adjusting the number of leaves, height, size, and point it to your desired texture map.

I’m not in front of Maya at the moment, but I’d look for a brush that creates 2d cards (with textures applied), like cereal flakes - or maybe one of the plant brushes - that you can assign your leaf shader to (under the ‘Texturing’ tab for the brush).
You should be able to lay the meshes down on the ground by adjusting the elevation settings, or possibly bend, and adjust the spread with the ‘brush width’ attribute. You may also need to adjust the shape/size of the brush to meet your needs…
