Mowed Grass
« on: June 06, 2016, 04:58:06 PM »
I have been trying to get the mowed grass look, by following the tutorial, but it isn't working. I know that the tutorial is old; has something changed and is there a new way?

Yes, we have a new tutorial for animations, which covers new render engines and techniques. You can find it here.

No, I am interested in making the grass looked mowed, with the mow lines. Specifically the Modern Barn video.

Hi,

The "map driven" Transform - Rotation (Translation / Scale) work-flow (to adjust transform amounts using a map) explained in the tutorial is still valid. Please double check, that the surface is properly mapped and you're using the correct map channel. As the final look will depend on shape of used items (is some cases controlling the Scale by map might be useful too). Hope that helps.

In case of further troubles with it, please feel free to send us your scene.

Best regards,
