Sphere on each vertex
« on: January 18, 2018, 06:30:52 AM »
Hi is it possible to add a sphere to each vertex of an object and how would this be achieved?

Hi,

In the Forest Pack plug-in, the Tree Editor > Creation Tools > In Vertex Positions feature can be used in combination with an "extracted spline object" from the object (for example from selected Edge Loops and using the Create Shape operation).

Another possible option would be to generate particles on all vertices and use the Particle Flow system as a base for the Mesher object under the Custom Edit mode as Reference Objects choosing the Distribute Using: Face Centers.

Let me add, that we're currently working on the direct support of particles (to link directly the particle system together with the Forest object) in the FP6.

Hope that helps.

Best regards,
