#3D STUDIO VEGETATION
6 messages in this thread
WHAT IS THE BEST PACKAGE AVAILABLE FOR 3D STUDIO THAT INCLUDES TREES, PLANTS
AND VEGETATION? HOW ABOUT ONE FOR FURNITURE ETC…? THANKS.
Mark,
You shouldn't use all caps, it hurts peoples ears.
I have Silicon Garden by Yost and Imagine Nursery from Schreiber Instruments.
I like them both equally for trees and plants, but you better have alot of RAM
and a fast machine. I had them for a year and never used them until I got my
Pentium/100.
I also have the Blocks & Materials CD by KETIV. It has a large collection of
mesh objects like: planes, cars, trucks, playground equipment, furniture,
appliances, computer equipment, vegetation, textures, etc. I have found the
collection of urinals and toilets particularly entertaining. The KETIV # is
1-800-458-0690. I think it was around $300.

I have a mesh of a soap cake if you need one.

Uh, I could really use a big mesh of toilet paper (the soft morphable kind).
Byron,
Sorry about the yelling, I've got to switch to de-cafe…
Thanks for the info, I've ordered the Silicon Garden disk and should get it in
afew days. I'll also check out that CD you suggested. I'm ju 3d-Studio world so
if you have any great advice I'd be greatful.
Oh ya, I'm running a 486/66 16Mhz… how much more ram would you recomend (if
any) [Dthanks

Mark,
<< …running a 486/66 16Mhz… how much more ram would you recomend
I got started with a 486/66 with 32M RAM and it worked very well. I grew out
of the 32M when I had some large projects (around 100K faces) and using special
effects (IPAS). Don't worry, when you need more RAM, 3DS will let you know.
I've added two Pentiums with 64M RAM and never had a memory problem yet. If
you want to set up a large architectural scene with vegetation, or use USGS
land data, you could easily need over 64M RAM.
