I want to create grass land where I Have single piece of grass leaf which I want to duplicate over surface. But the surface is made up of single polygon. Duplicating manually and arranging them over surface randomly is painful, so I want to know How to do it using MEL?

Surprise !! nobody is replied ??

I tried myself to solve the problem, I create hairs along the surface and deleted all the node except Follicles. And then add the grass geo in variable and loop duplicate it through all follicles position.
90% of my problem is solved here, but I need to know How can I create Only “follicles” on surface to avoid deleting every hairs curves each time so to save calculation time??
