Title: Floor tiles, rotation
Post by: in3des on May 18, 2016, 11:01:40 AM

Hi,
I'm making simple floor tiles with forest and have some question.
Is it possible to randomly rotate tiles but at special angles 0-90-180-270 ?
Otherwise I need to create more geometry instances and add all to the list.
Hope there is a simple solution or possible to add such an option for the future releases.

Thx.

Hi,

That's possible by using the Probability Curve (http://docs.itoosoft.com/display/FORESTPACK/Transform#Transform-ProbabilityCurves) feature, that'll be controlling the angle.

Also in the Forest Pack 5, we've introduces a new very powerful feature - Effects, which let you control several Forest's aspects parametrically. Feel free to have a look at following "Stepped Rotation (http://docs.itoosoft.com/display/FORESTPACK/Stepped+Rotation)" example. Hope you'll find it handy for such tasks.

Best regards,
