I have been playing with the ivy plugin for about an hour now and i am SHOCKED. By far the best ivy generator I have used, and it's so simple to set up. Incredible work and thanks for this!

Ivy generator looks really awesome!! Nice to play with. I have to look more into it. Try custom leaves and so on.

But will you share other changes in Forest Pack itself so we can test it? Or is the ivy generator the only changeM Thank you.

[Bobby Parker]

Downloading now. Thank you!

Thanks for your feedback. We're glad you enjoy ForestIvy !

I moved posts related to FP9 to the Beta forum. 
Please, post all issues and suggestions there.

There are many changes and improvements to the Forest plugin as well, it's not only ForestIvy.
You can check them in the release notes.

Sorry but how do we download the beta version?

Sorry but how do we download the beta version?

You can download it from User panel->Beta versions.

Please note you must have a Forest Pack Pro license with active maintenance plan.
If your maintenance plan expired, it can be renewed from the Panel as well.

Will previous versions of FP like v8.2.4 be made compatible with 3dsmax 2025?

[iToo]

No, sorry. FP9 includes many changes to provide compatibility for Max 2025.
Applying these changes to FP8 would require double work.

We are having some troubles with version 9.0.4
We might be doing something wrong but when trying the ForestIvy, no leaves apear when using the 2 presets that come with it.
Branching seems fine and aging as well.

[Paul Roberts]

Could you try updating the libraries via update manager too (if you haven't already done so). We had to re-export them for compatibility with this release.

If that doesn't help, you may find you can simply enable the leaves in the Leaves and Flowers rollout



I hope that helps,

Paul.

[tavares1]

Updating Forest to the latest version solved the problem.
Thank you,
