Thanks for this script. I notice that the leaves are not connected to the branches. They are floating in the air. Is there any way to correct this issue?
Hey, I get this message from Max that i have to copu the .gup file in ENU folder.. then I saw on the site how to do it and I did it but i when you create a seed your plugin automatically finds an objects to scatter on and you can click the button to start the ivy growing. My script doesnt allow me to pick an object to scatter on and the button for growing stays gray so I installed it but it doesnt work .

Hi !
Sorry but I don't find the link to download the script on the Guillermo's website... could you help me ?
Fantastic. Would be cool if they'd include a reset to defat button. Love it. Thanks for the thorough video.
Not sure what settings the illustrations units set up have, as I have tried m,cm and mm and get nothing like the growth in the pictures?
Sweet. Was gutted when the other one was taken down due to the “1 penny donation” thing
Same, I mean as much as I would hate a 1 penny donation too he never fully understood how many people loved his work and relied on it.
@@NibblyBitz I think that was his whole issue. So many people used it for free making money off it, without giving him anything for it. Then the 1 cent donation put it into perspective.

after checking just 2 sites which had a download for the old version: one had 34.000 downloads, another one more than 45.000, and all of them didn't have a single spare dollar ? drink one beer less per year (or a pizza, or whatever), easy as that
do you think there would be blender anymore if not big companies would invest? from the average user you can expect nothing (or maybe 1 cent)
the only hope is that people learned something from this situation, but i think its hopeless - this is how humans are, telling themselves that they are so good and intelligent, but when it comes to prove that, there is just silence
just watch us-movies: every 2 minutes someone is asking "are you ok, are you ok", but nobody really cares
for crappy movies where super-heroines need to wear some covered up high heels or metal clothing which would cut a normal person into pieces after the 1st step, for such BS there is always more than a cent available
or buying the newest game to kill monsters, aliens, and what not for some 30 years now - most important is to have ultra-realistic blood splatting over the screen in real time - but for saying "fuck" we need to cover it with a beep-sound, to keep children 'save' ? naked tits are a no-go, so people need to search for videos with girlies in wet t-shirts to see their nipples to get wet dreams - we as a species should extinct ourselves
it was not THE one cent donation, it was some 40++ one cent donations, and some 2 cents, at some point enuff is enuff. although there were some 5 nice people which kept things going.
paypal takes it all if a donation is less that ~38cents, so this guys made only paypal happy
besides the donation issue there were lots of more or less bad mails, demanding nonsense because nobody really was reading the description
there were also lots of mails with question about how things should be done, asking for tips. usually things that a company manages with some (not really helpful) support desk, spent lots of time helping people finishing their projects and never complained about it - but 'this guy' is a bad person because he doesn't give stuff for free anymore, how can he ?
are people complaining about the big company AD, which charges now hundreds of dollars per month? but just a one-time support for a lone dev is asked too much - what a twisted world are we living in ?
nobody has the slightest idea what it means to code such a thing, not to mention to make it stable for the avg user and keep supporting it with every new max-version over more than 10 years (ask Guillermo, if you want to know more thinks like this)
complaining about a thing that costs nothing, but using a software which cost a thousand times more per year ? or just using pirated software to complain about?
nobody said it was there to get rich with it. you might know or not, hosting a website cost something, power consumption, computer hardware cost, compiler and software are not free either, but people always want everything for free - but that changes very fast when they start their own business
telling empty phrases like "keep up the good work" does not feed anyone, and isn't a big motivator either.
even disney used it for feature films, never bothered to - at least - write a mail with some words of appreciation, that much about motivation
if a dev. gives something for free, he/she also needs to pay some bills, or he/she needs to get a paid job, but then there is no more time to make 'free' things
it still baffles me, that one has to explain such simple things over and over again
maybe the coming AI's are writing free plugins on demand, good luck with that
ahhh, venting is good, ...because there is no therapist available for 1 cent
Hello. Thanks for this great plugin and video. But there Is a problrö. Why the seed cannot be glued on the faces? In old versions, it could be made.
