Hey Morten
The scene is set up to create an ice modelled plant.
The modelling part was removed from the scene to make it small enough to
post on here.
I can mail the full scene to you If you want it

Pretty cool stuff Fabricio.
Sorry for crashing the thread, but out of curiosity I took a look at
your scene, and here the trunk and branches does not render - only the
leaf cones. I am on 2013 SP2 - what do I need to do to render the
trunk and branches too?

Hi Gerbrand,
I took a look at your scene (on SI2013).
My solution was to replace leaf emission from the main pointcloud
to a new pointcloud to keep things simple. Then add points at
strandpositions (filtering by the original pointcloud last
state_id - or strandtree iteration) and query strand arrays to
build a "root to tip" attribute on each leaf. Finally do whatever
you need with this new attribute, like resize the particles with
an fcurve and so on...
hope it helps.

Cool, so you can check it out in 2013??
How do I get the leaves to go smaller towards the tip of each
emitting branch?
If it was a curve I could read the nearest U value and rescale
that, but this strand business complicates things.
The other thing I tried and failed at was to measure the
distance between each leaf and the tip of the strand, to get a
value to work with.
But things get lost in arrays of weird-shit from my point of
view.
I hate knowing enough to get into this kind of crap, but not
enough to get out!!!

I have 2013 SP1 too, so I can compare. It just doesn't
work in 2014 SP2. I unplugged everything but Basic Tree,
and in 2014 SP2, Emit Leaves doesn't add any points to the
point cloud.

Yeah probably
I'm still in good old 2013 sp1

In 2014 I see the same thing as Chris.
Probably some nodes were dropped on load...maybe
you were using an old version of Build Array from
Set?

Hey Chris, Thanks for looking
On my side I see a stand tree with green
cones where leaves will be
Are you at least seeing that?

So this is part of my frustrating
quest to get smarter with ICE.
I would very much like to create a
mint bush procedurally using ICE.
I started by first molesting a
lovely compound created by
Fabricio Chamon called strand tree.
I think Fabricio knew noobs like
me would come along and try this
kind of shit, because the compound
responded with a full 3 hours of
sodomy.
It is time to beg you guys for
some help!!
The leaves is the main problem. I
have got the rotation and position
right, but I have no clue how to
scale them so they are small
towards the tips of each stem.
Could someone please have a look
at this scene. I'm sure it's just
a simple array thing, but my mind
has problems with arrays.
Thanks guys
