Hi Guys,
This a really good workflow from Brave Rabbit "polyScatter – Spread objects across a surface".and is FREE
http://www.braverabbit.de/playground/?p=474
Just need set scatter at the main mesh. and that's it...
Look some results...with speed tree with high-level tree with 4 types.

My only trouble is to make work the animation with the FBX cache from speed tree look like doesn't work.

I tried to setup on Reshapable Mesh but nothing. maybe soon.
hope you like guys.

Did you shoot already high resolution that one is not enough is really small size I guess with a big texture would be more sharper the clouds.

Does it scatter instances or are you generating huge mesh files?
Thanks

Very nice render! Can you share more info on that scene. I'm trying to scatter speedtree trees and have a lot of problems with that.
Did you use geometry scatter? How meny polys? etc.
Much appreciated.

Hi Sampakinpa,
I used speedtree on that as well my issues was the fbx cache version I tried with alembic is work fine with no issue.
for this renders I use just a fbx with 5 different tree highrez from speedtree make sure the geometry type in maya is set scatter at Extra attribute of all base tree then the instance will pick up this options.
If still doesn't work update your Octane version with the new one is work perfect also the animation.
Cheers
Jo
