I am looking at generating a Spruce tree using T-Gen or SpeedTree for the geometry and the generate the needles using Strands. To that end I would like to generate the strands growing from the top and sides af each twig/branch but not the underside. My question is if there is a way to isolate either of these areas in ICE or otherwise and perhaps generate a cluster or weightmap I can use in ICE?
The only way I have found so far is to select Y+ in the Texture Editor which gives me samples of the area I want. How do I select vertices or polygons from this? Also is there a quicker way to select this area directly in ICE? Thanks. Morten ------ Softimage Mailing List.
