Surface Area falloff
« on: February 03, 2012, 02:35:46 AM »
Is it possible to have density/scale falloff from the edge of a surface that the forest object is applied to?
Currently I can only get this to work if I use an area spline as well.

No, sorry it's not possible. The edge of a surface is not delimited in the same way that a spline, so we can't use it for the falloff.

Thanks, this would be a good feature to add for future builds if possible.
This is something they managed to do in multiscatter.
However Forest Pro is much more powerfull overall.

Ok, we will see if there is some way to implement it.
