Hi All.
How can I make many kind of flowers (around 700~1000 flowers and around 10 types) growing up in XSI??

I´m thinking modeling and animate in xsi and export scene to LW for render (I have much more experience on LW textures and render than xsi)
I would like something like that:

Thanks all.

You Should Probably Build Your 10 Flowers With T-gen And Distribute Them With A Particle Instance ..!!

Others way is using Vue xStream, grow up plants inside Vue itself interface on the 3D model where you want to see it, after use Vue Scatter tools / Ecosystem to populate and last add some grow up keyframes...get back the plants with keyframe to XSI.

An others way is playing with Fractal L-System here is one for XSI : http://www.xsibase.com/scripts/modeling.php?detail=379 (link look borken :( )

or a standalone one Ivy Generator : http://graphics.uni-konstanz.de/~luft/ivy_generator/ you can grow up some funny plants with just by changing Textures,…

A good to come is the excellent Ivy generator from Guruware with the one you can change leaf to meshes !! Guruware can provide an XSI Ivy generator if you need one : http://www.guruware.at/main/index.html

Also with ICE you can grow up geometries with particles etc…

Thanks guys!!
Ivy generator is very cool!! There have nice sample images. Maybe work for me.:smile:
