I use this image to show some of the new capabilities of  the new
version of "Tomtree", espescially the twig-ramification.

Very cool.  Is it blob-derived?
My dream, someday, is to figure out a truly procedurally based tree,
without hundreds of translate and rotate statements.

    Again, shouldn't Isosurface be able to do this? Some sort of a fractal
growing and spreading thing?

That's my dream. I'm thinking that it could involve a "fixed" noise3d with
some kind of ingenious formula to make it branch out more as one increases in
Y........

Would using Y be enough? The branches could spread horizontally as well as
vertically and might even bend back towards the ground.

I have played with that a little, not knowing what I am doing... I get

    I have been sitting here trying to conceptualize this and I am having a
brain cramp.

    I can see a function that divides as it goes up y, but not one that
"branches". Warning ASCII art follows.

I see:

|    |    |    |
    |      |
        |

but not:

\  | |/_
 \ |/
   |

Isn't there a tad too many branches? Also I think some of the thinnest ones are
a bit thick.

Actually I'm more impressed by the vegetation to the left and in the lower
right corner. Is that produced by Tomtree too?

Gnarly! as some people used to say.  I'm almost more impressed by the overall
scene.  The tree seems a bit on the dense side, about how many days does it take
to parse such a thing?
I didn't see anyone ask about leaves to go with it.

Oh, gosh! I love it. It might be a bit dense, as some say here, but it looks
GOOD! Reminds me of that oldie 'shadow of the beast' on Amiga.

Any chance for source?

Simen.

As I said, I wanted to show the major improvements of Tomtree - and this is the
twig-ramification for higher density, but less parsingtime anyway (1 min. for this
scene with height-fields).

All plants are produced by Tomtree.
Have a look for more examples at my site.

I like the ground tiled concrete look, some cracks where the tree grows...?
Does any of the tom tree work w/ the official vers...?

Kick ass, excellent tree, (and nice scene to :), tho maybe the tree is a bit
to 'twiggy'
