I had this problem too.

I reinstalled the last update and it worked...

Good evening,

@ RJC: I would agree with tuschcarsten that it could be a version problem. Which version are you using? After allot of people now can start the plugins I think this is the onliest possibility left.

@ grimber: I had problems to understand what you wanted me to change. This it what I read out of it: You want me to change the arrangement of the leaves, right? What I could change is the angle, i.e. a randomly alternating. The other thing that also could be done is to add another face, or more, to a branch or trunk. But this would raise the vertice and triangle number..
I think this forum could be a good base to discuss this changes. As long as the creator keeps simple and the models low-poly, I am opened for changes. But I need more than one opinion on that..

Np here is a picture of what i mean



thats fine if the poly count jumps, it is to be expected realy.

Good morning Grimber,
except for the cubic cluster, you displayed what I had in mind. But I would still say that the higher polycount isn't that good. That would mean to have 16 Vertices and 16 Triangles more per trunk, just for the 'X-Cluster'..
I could implement an area where the user could choose one of the three described leave-arrangements. But I need more votes for this change. At least 5.
I would still prefer, when there has to be a change with the leaves, that the leaves should rotate randomly around a trunk. This wouldn't raise the number of Vertices or Triangles. But that's also up to you.

Hi Andre!

I definately do agree to Grimber! It could be a great improovement to add x-leaf clusters (have it on my trees too).

Come on folks, vote for the x-clusters or even selectable clusters!!!

Voting for selectable cluters!

The highpolies of today will be the lowpolies of tomorrow. Better to plan in advance.

Ok i cant for the life of me get this too work. Im using the 6.31.4 com edition before anyone ask. Ive copied the included dll into my med_plugins folder and the other one into my windows/system32 folder. Still nothing. Reapplied the update nothing ,rebooted and same thing nothing. I got the terrain plugin posted some time ago to work with no problems. But cant get either the car or tree plugin to work. Really dissapointing cause it sounds like a nice tool. BTW i vote selectable clusters just hope ill be able to use them eventually anyone have any other ideas what could be wrong and why it wont work?

Edit: Ok got it too work. For those who are still having problems and to the creator. To fix it i had to download and install both files mentioned previously. msvcrtd.dll & mfc42d.dll. Then works fine. If possible you should include both dlls with your downloads. Till then you can find msvcrtd.dll at http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcrtd Anyways off to check this out... been wanting to for quite some time now

Nabend zusammen,
heute hab ich mich mal einigen Wuenschen ergeben und den Tree Creator aktualisiert.
In der neuen Version kann nun die Form der Blaetter wie oben dargestellt ausgewaehlt werden und zusaetzlich eine zufaellige Winkelaenderung aktiviert werden.
Außerdem gibt es nun die Moeglichkeit einen LOD zu erstellen. Wer dies tut wird drei uebereinander angeordnete Baeume entdecken, in der mitte die beste, oben die mittlere und unten die schlechteste Qualitaet. Dann einfach das Ganze dreimal abspeichern, jeweils zwei Baeume entfernen den uebrig gebliebenen in der mitte plazieren. Und schon koennt ihr die Baeume in euren Kreationen noch hardwareschonender einsetzen..
Wen uebriegens die lahme HP stoert der sollte einfach meine andere Adresse ( www.herrweiss.de benutzen).
Gruß
André

Hi@all,
today I decided to realize some of your wishes for my Tree Creator. Follow the link up above (to the faster HP), and test it out.
The first new thing is that you can now choose the leave-form like it is described in Grimbers' posting.
The second novelty is the LOD. Whoever tries this feature will discover three superposed trees: in the middle the best, above the middle and below the lowest quality. Just save the whole thing three times, remove two of them each time and move the remaining tree to the centerpoint.
