dangerweenie Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Howdy! Does anyone know how to convert geometry (ie polymesh, mesh) to either a metaball, or something that I can plug into the L-System's "meta-input" slot, to define volume inside which an L-System can grow? Thanks! Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik_JE Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Just scatter points on your geometry and copy meta balls on to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freaq Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) Just scatter points on your geometry and copy meta balls on to them. this however does not fill the "inside" of your mesh. if you need this, i've made a small example file for you using volumes. good luck scatter_by_volume_Freek.hipnc Edited October 30, 2011 by freaq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
