CUSTOM TREES in Blender - FREE Tree Creation Add-On - Sapling Tree Generator
Переглядів 173,980
3 роки томуIn today’s video, we’re going to check out a free add-on contained inside of Blender 2.83 that allows you to quickly generate custom trees inside of Blender! Sapling Tree generator is an add-on that comes built-in to Blender for helping you to quickly create trees and leaves, as well as setting up the UV mapping properly so you can quickly add textures as well!

• The FASTEST Way to SET...
Enable - File - Preferences - Sapling Tree Gen
Adding a tree - shift A, curves, sapling tree
This pops up a menu for editing your tree - note that if you click off of this, it will go away. You might be able to get it back with F9, or maybe not. Best to try not to click off of it.
Adjusting Branches - size, layouts, etc - I’d start with a preset
Leaves - add check box - come in UV mapped
Adjust with UV mapping - easy
Trunk - object - convert to - mesh from curve

I'm really late in seeing this but I love it when people make comprehensive tutorials, it's perfect for the skill level that's required to use it. Rock on 🎉

I've never found a tutorial that is as easy to understand, useful, and accurate as those produced by The CG Essentials. Thanks for saving me time and for sparing me from unnecessary grief! You're amazing!!!
@notsure1969 3 роки тому
I love the energy of your tutorial by the way. It's very welcoming and friendly. Keep up the good work. You earned another subscriber. You can also use the "Leaf Object" drop down to add your own leaf shape to the tree. For instance, if you wanted to use "Images as Planes" to get a cool looking leaf texture to add to your tree.

While it may have been an error, that tubular tree actually gave me an idea! Going to have to play around with this feature. Didn't even know it was a thing as I'm very new to Blender. Stayed away from 3D for many years but now I'm looking on how I can incorporate it into my artwork. Thank you very much for the tutorial!

For those of you wondering why Ctrl + shift + T at minute 7:26 , it's because in the new version you have to set it up manually. Go to the add-ons and search for "Node Wrangler" and enable it. Now the command should work ^^

I'm creating a game that takes place in my neighborhood and uses real video footage of pathways, buildings, etc. And it also uses 3D and 2D game engine elements (BabylonJs and Construct 3). I kept thinking that I wanted to do fairly realistic top-down "drone" footage of the area without using a real drone, and started creating a cityscape and landscape using BlenderGIS and the built-in Blender-OSM addons--all working beyond my expectations. The only thing that was missing was realistic trees and bushes. Using your tutorial, I started adding a few pine trees, and I can't believe how much it breathes life into the scene. Thanks for the tutorial!

im surprised for the addon called tree gen, and i dint know it exist, i was struglling making my own tree, by doing a lots of thing. but this addon helps me.
@juleswombat5309 2 роки тому
Really useful and well explained. It is just unfortunate that cannot recover the Tree Creation, Editing Menu, after deselecting the Object, as would be nice to change tress after seeing textures etc.
@glennet9613 2 роки тому
Fantastic, I bought a tree for $7 but found it had too many verts, my computer couldn't handle creating a forest scene with the geometry nodes. Using this will give me a better result with realistic leaves for free.

hey do you have any idea of how i could convert it back to a curve because id like to keep the armature animation thing intact, I'm just looking for a way to uv unwrap the tree without removing the animations
@khallkhall7237 3 роки тому
It seems to be a really powerful tool. From what I can see when I played around with it a while ago, it will generate bushes and even grass stalks and smaller plants. My experience was it is too general. When all you want to do is generate trees...it takes a lot of fiddling to get trees and not something that looks like a tree-sized bush. It might just be the interface and my skill level with it. But I would rather the default model looked like a tree or a bush or a plant, rather than the love child of all three and then making you define it in sliders. Also would have liked to see it be better at generating logs and stumps but that might be too much to ask. For me, any real forest should have all different life cycles of trees in it. It would also make sense to include some material libraries in it, eventually.
@TheCGEssentials 3 роки тому
It has a bunch of presets you can start with...

Would it be more practical to use a particle system for the leaves to save on geometry being rendered in the view port?

I don't think so - wouldn't it be better to just turn off the leaf groups in the viewport?

it was not clear with leaves texture. we got several kind of leaves forms and colors in color texture, how to make them all different? how to adjust geometry in everyone?
@TheCGEssentials 3 роки тому
I wouldn't try to make every single leaf difference - what would the purpose be? You could select some of the leaves and change their UV mapping separately if you really wanted to I guess
@christiansanchez7448 10 місяців тому
@@TheCGEssentials i think it would add a lot of variation and realism to have the leaves be slightly different shades of green. I had planned on making a procedural texture with a color ramp but am unsure on how to feed it each individual leaf :/
