Simple Tree Tools v1.5.9 for Houdini Indie

- A complete set of fully procedural tree modeling tools for Houdini. Simple and intuitive to use, yet advanced enough for creating any kind of procedural tree and foliage.

All the features needed for realistic tree creation is here. Everything from simple bending to more advanced features like 3 different kinds of Tropisms and Real Time Wind Simulation.

Tools:

• SimpleTree: This is the tool for creating the "Tree-spine". Full control, and I do mean FULL control. Alternatively you can use "Trunkmaker" and "BranchMaker" for even more control, or combine them all. This is a very modular system.  
• Trunkmaker: Create simple trunk with a few controls for shape.
• BranchMaker: Create branches from any previous level, you can pipe as many levels as you want after one another. 
• SimpleLeaf: As it sounds, simple leaf creation tool with a few controls.
• LeafScatter: Very powerful scatter tool for leaves. Scatter leaves (or any geometry) on any previous levels of your choosing. It also has simple "wind animation" and random color options.
• TreeMesher: Mesh your tree with intuitive controls. It also has controls for "trunk flares".
• SimpleMotion: Animate the tree curves with SimpleMotion. Natural looking Realtime Wind simulation in most cases. Even on big trees with a lot of branches!
• SimpleTree pDeform: Deforms TreeMesher and LeafScatter after animation.

V 1.5.9 Highlights:

Noise 2.0

Bugfixes

V 1.5.8 Highlights:

Bugfixes.

Leaf Presets in SimpleLeaf HDA.

V 1.5.6 Highlights:

New branching generation mode "Bifurcation". 

Better handling of Custom Geo in LeafScatter. Define Pieces from Connectiviy or from Primitive Attribute.

V 1.5.5 Highlights:

SimpleTree pDeform now handles "Unified tree meshes" automatically. I also changed the underlying system so it looks much better when a mesh is "Unified". 

V 1.5.4 Highlights:

SimpleMotion has been re-written from scratch. Realtime Wind Simulation that looks a lot more natural than before. Compared to the old, this is night and day in term of performance and the motion! So easy to dial in the look since there is no waiting on long simulation times and flipbook renders.

V 1.5.3 Highlights:

Just a few bugfixes this time.

V 1.5.2 Highlights:

New Group options in SimpleTree node for advanced branching systems.

Smoother Wind Motion in LeafScatter and SimpleMotion.

Choose levels in TreeMesher.

V 1.5.1 Highlights:

Phototropism (Effect of Light)

Gravitropism (Effect of Gravity on Branches)

Thigmotropism (Effect of Contact with Objects)
