adizepl Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 (edited) Hello everyone. I am working on a growing vines effect with the use of L-system. I want my L-system to be deformed by the curve and controlled with carve SOP. I have set up the initial network, however the main problem I encounter is the fact that the leaves anchor points are deformed in the way that it doesn't match the L-system branches. (see the screengrabs) Non-deformed L-system Deformed L-system with non-matching leaves I attached my hip file, any help would be appreciated: growing_lsystem_vines_01.hipnc Edited July 17, 2016 by adizepl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atom Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 (edited) Try turning off the pack node on the leaf object. Inside the vine turn off the add1 node. Edited July 17, 2016 by Atom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adizepl Posted July 17, 2016 Author Share Posted July 17, 2016 Thank you Atom, turning off pack node was the solution! I have another question - I am using carve node to grow the vine, however the animation is not smooth, I have tried different ways, but can't get it to work smoothly. It jitters back and forth a little. I reference the resample node points on my curve in the generations number of L-system (green nodes) and the capturing curve is the same length as the L-system and it has as many points as my deformed curve. Any suggestions? I attached my updated hip file and a video. growing_lsystem_vines_04.hipnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
