Back Hey Denis, we need the same thing here actually. We did in the past a growing tree in XSI 3.01 based on a X-Frog model. To let a tree grow in X-Frog and import it with leaves gave some hard problems in X-Frog and XSI we couldn't solve. So my 3d agent decided another way to import a flexible and changeable X-Frog model by scripting and other techniques. This took a while. It's a several weeks project. Just to let you know. http://www.virtualrepublic.org/projects/bosch/121803/vrp030603_growing_tree. html We will start again with some R&D to find out if XSI 3.511 will handle the X-Frog models without crashes. And we have to find out if X-Frog is really able to animate a growing of a complex tree. I'm not sure. Let's share the knowlegde. Yours, President ***** Michael Klein (president)

Hi folks I'm looking for a solution for growing plants in 3D. I've taken a look at xfrog, but it's ony available for cinema 4d it seems. Does anybody know of anything similar that would work with XSI or as a stand alone? Of course any useful tips or pointers on how to do this 'naked' in XSI would be great! cheers! big bird AKA Denis-Jose Francois -- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- ----- Nextlimit SL. Fallen Angels VOF.
