vermu Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Hi, I am trying to find a place where I could buy good 3d bushes. I wouldn't want to go with rpc's so if someone knows a good library of 3d bushes, please let me know. -Vermu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STRAT Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 try doing displacment can you expand on that please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Eloy Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Some of the bushes we see in some images are simply boxes/spheres/whatever with a displacement map applied to them. Doesn't always work, but is definetly an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STRAT Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Rick, i'm unfamilier with this option. can you show me an example or 2 please? i understand displacement ok, but not how to make displacement folliage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Eloy Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 As I said, it's like a generic way of doing it. For example: http://www.cgarchitect.com/vb/15773-3d-scene-pool-details.html Doesn't work for all kinds of bushes, only hedges and stuff like that. Anyway, a good option came to my mind right now: SpeedTree. I remember they have some pretty decent bushes on their library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianKitts Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 yeah I'll agree with that one... I've been using displacement lately for pine trees (easily could have been a horizontal hedge or bush) but they are right sometimes it just doesn't look right, takes to much time to render or.... looks good, 1 in 3 shot right??? he was kind of tucked in the back of this scene.... I cropped him in closer on the one attachment..... but you get the idea.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STRAT Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 guys, you talking about vray displacement right? sorry, didnt realise you were being software specific until i saw the examples not all 3d app displacement works like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Eloy Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Indeed... but you can do that with VRay, Mental Ray and Modo (as far as I know)... Doesn't C4D have a displacement feature like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STRAT Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 yup, SPD (sub poly displacement). quite slow. i certainly wouldn't recomment it for trees or such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Eloy Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Well, VRay's and MR's aren't exactly a rocket, you know... But, even thought they are slow, they might as well work if you want to render them in separate and then composite using PS. Or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
