As always great tutorial. :) Condensed info and practial approach. You are great - it appears You are almost sole competent channel for knowledge about SpeedTree - keep it that way - keep it specialized. Don't change Your channel to on of this this "Introduction to Blender" channels. Keep as dedicated as You are and 3D Hobbyst channel will bloom faster then all these plants You are creating here :) Keep them coming and people will too. That's it :) Put a word or two in wind topic if You can.
I'm using the 9.0.0 version. Anyway you can achieve the same result by: - Adding a branch generator - Then, in the Gen tab make sure the Mode is set in "Absolute". - Then below, change the Number parameter to 0. - At the bottom change "Extend parent" from None to Any.
I'm interested in creating my own models for landscape design rendering in Lumion, but I'm completely new to Speed Tree. Honestly, the learning curve is pretty overwhelming at this time. I was searching for good quality oak trees on sketchup's database and couldn't find anything, and decided I may be able to make it myself, along with other Florida native plants that seem to be completely absent from 3D modeling databases. Your tutorial gives me a generous amount of hope... I guess my question is, is it worth it? Should I get the Indie subscription and go for it? Do you do private lessons? Haha!
You can try it! You can build really good models with just a couple of generators and a few node edits, of course if you need something a more specific you'll to need to spend more time (and use more generators) but speedtree helps a lot in the process. You can email me at 3dhobbyist01@gmail.com if you need help.
Hi! great tutorial, 1 question. How and where do you get the textures for your model and do you know a way how to create your own based on a real leaf?
Most of the textures in my tutorials were made by mixing images from the internet in photoshop (if I can't find a good image of the leaves I try to search for a similar specie), that way I create the color texture, then I use Materialize (free) to create the normal and roughness. For the subsurface color I use the color map but with changes in the RGB channels. The result sometimes is not so good. I know scanned textures look better but most of the times I make plants that are not in any scan library.
@@tjeerdroukens5110buy easy foliage for games course by FastTrack Tutorials on gumroad/FlippedNormals/artstation. Emiel Sleegers teaches you how to scan your own leaves and make your own textures as well. It's price is $30 , during the sale it's $20. And if u wanna know the process behind scanning your own tree bark and converting it to a full tree Then get his new course - ultimate photogrammetry course however this one is a bit more expensive $59. But during the sale u can get it for less than $45-50. It teaches you how to scan other things as well.
Hi, you can use a Leaf Mesh generator to do that. You can send me an email at mrrlease@protonmail.com with more details / images so I can help you better.

@@3dhobbyist296 AAAAAA i can't thank you enough i'm making an animation featuring a full field blooming with flowers now i can export all my plants and their anims in alembic then populate in houdini, blender, unreal or whatever.
how useful it is it without the content source for the purpose of the video? how should one being about to follow along without the content provided in the tutorials? honestly seems pointless at that point.
One of the best yet concise CG tutorial I've seen.
Thank you very much!
Excellent tutorial. Many thanks! This is exactly how all tutorials should be.
Thank you so much! This has been more helpful that Speedtree's tutorials
Thank you!
This is a very good lecture. I look forward to the lecture on trees.
Thanks! I'll make some trees in future videos

Thank you very much! I like 3d in general but especially 3d environments. Also, I'll try to consider wind for future speedtree videos.
great job! thank you . waiting for more :)
Thank you very much!
really helpful tut!! please try to make more videos like this :)
Thanks! I'll try to make more videos.
Well explained, Thank you :)
That was amazing
Really helpful my friend! +1 sub, Waiting for future tutorials
Thank you very much!
Great video!

Hey, nice tutorial. I have one question - where did you get all of this textures? Is it your own photos?
Almost all of them were masked from images on the internet, then edited in photoshop, and for the normal and roughness map I used Materialize PBR
@@3dhobbyist296 Got it, thank you, this is exact what I am done to complete your tutorial:)
great tutorial as always.
Just one request, could do you a banyan or neem tree please?
Thanks! I'll try to consider it for a future video.

@@3dhobbyist296 maybe an idea to make a tutorial on this aswell? Would help me a lot!

@@3dhobbyist296 sure sir I will send you my working file .And thanx sir for giving your precious time to solve this !!
How can i get the "Extension" thing? I'm using Speedtree Cinema 9 but can't see that specific option.

which version you are using sir ? coz I don'nt have that tab in my speedtree v 9.0
Is Trunk tube > trunk extension at 4:23 not available in the current version of speedtree? what should I do instead?
I think I found it in the gen perperties of trunk tube under extend parent
May I ask what software is this, thank you very much
Speedtree
speedtree 哈哈知道了

I had to delete the files on my gumroad because of speedtree's EULA, sorry for that!
