Little Help please.

Ok I know there are a million threads some older than others, so i need some current suggestions. Since the start of scatter plugins I have not really started using them since i have been so busy with the design part of my renderings etc. ( Im an Architect ). Im currently starting a project which will require it, Not sure if I can spend the money on Vray Scatter right now my work firm is on a tight budget, If you can advise on a free scatter technique it would help i need to produce an image like below. Any help is appreciated, you guys always come through. =)

im on 2010 and sp4a 64 bit.

oh and sorry about the thread title i couldn't change it..lol

on a flat surface like that you can try forest lite:

I guess it should work allright, it may only take a bit to draw all the different splines needed for such an intricate wall.

What the difference between the Forest pack lite and Pro ?

[rivoli]

lite is the free, limited, version. you get less features and you can't scatter on surfaces but only within splines. it's still a great plugin imo, and should work perfectly in your case.

oh i see. Nice thanks so much ! I will definitely TRY IT !

GTools jar planter is very good IMO, too.

I did something similar with just painting proxies on the wall... In my opinion you will have it done by hand faster than you'll find out how to use the plugin...

[pskdude]

gotcha, not to familiar with the painting tool though, :/ so in this case i might want to use the plugin lol.

[pskdude]

G Tools in script spot, link is not working :/

[voltron7]

Bummer, I just checked, too. Maybe he's updating his homepage?
I have a few scatter plug-ins etc., but this one is usually my favorite for garden/planter bed stuff.
Hope it will still be available...

oh, wait, try this link

[voltron7]

Hi,
this is exactly what I meant by painting the proxies
I use advanced painter, but this would be working solution too.
Good luck!
