Title: Mulch to cover slopes equally
Post by: Crayox on August 25, 2023, 11:13:30 am

Hi guys,
is there a way for this FP to cover the weird and streched slopes equally? I tried using UV mode instead of XY but it has it's own drawbacks.
Thanks

Hi,

Well, the Scale to fit sloped area option should be enabled by default for these presets, but on steep surfaces, the Surface - UV mode should be used instead of the default XY. As mentioned in our online reference guide (https://docs.itoosoft.com/forestpack/forest-plugin/surface#Surface-Mode): "The UV mode uses the mapping coordinates of the surface as an alignment guide for the Distribution map. This mode is best used on rough terrains or to scatter items over convex 3D objects (as a sphere). Note that using this mode, the UV coordinates must be precisely defined to get a coherent result."

I hope that helps.

Best regards,
