Nice one! I've tried a few geo-node tree tutorials and this one seems the best balance of simplicity and tweakability.

@KenanProffitt 2 місяці тому

Thanks! Yes, that was the idea. It can easily spin out of control when using geo nodes haha! Hopefully this is a happy medium :)

Amazing work! Good, clear walk-through. This is the best video I've seen for tree creation and an excellent walk-through on using Geometry Nodes. Well done.

Amazing. This kind of AI is really cheap and transparent, it would be great to see add-on creators relying on some of these "soft" computing techniques.

Haha Some people click away when they see the time length. 😅 glad that didn’t stop you! 💪

I find this a great tutorial! It explains what everything does in some sense. I do have a question. I still don't know why resampling the first curve does add more main branches but slides them downward, making me have to adjust the less than and greater than values to get things to show correctly. But it does work. Same on the other levels. I always need to adjust the less than and greater than values to correctly add branches instead of having them slide inwards. I see that you just up the resample curve value. Any idea what is going wrong? I feel like i followed the whole video correctly. I can probably figure out some formula and node shenanigans to have everything transform at once, but figured i'd ask :) Thanks! Edit: at the leaves it gets worse, i can not add more even if i wanted to. I don't know what has gone wrong here :s

Adjusting the probability on the branch instances at variable levels tends to leave behind floating branches at higher levels (i.e. if I drop down the probability for a level 1 branch, a level 2 branch may still get left floating in space on nothing). Did I mess it up or miss a step? It's still a great tutorial, and the first one that produced a result that I felt was worth imitating, I am just struggling as a new geometry nodes adapter.

@KenanProffitt 2 місяці тому

Hey Stephen! Try feeding the result from the equal node (that's mixing your "greater than" and "less than" integers for the branches) into the top of a math node. Then set that to multiply. Then in the bottom of that multiply node feed the boolean probability node. Then take that value output and feed it directly into the selection of your instance node. And leave the pick instance value empty. I should have done it that way in the tutorial, but I messed that up I believe 😅

looks like you are Grasshopper turned Geometry node user, am i right ? at 7:15, instead of making seperate trim curve, I think you should make some algorithm like checker deselect on points so the points remain attached to main curve.

@user-wh4wm3mw7l Місяць тому

Very good tutorial. But as a beginner in Blender, I find it too hard. Too many nodes, too many unknown things going on. The tree trunk needs some deformation, how could it be done?

How do I get trees that grow from and incorporate rocks or boulders into the trunk and root structure though?

@KenanProffitt 2 місяці тому

Ah now that's a pretty cool concept! I'd imagine you would need to utilize the ray cast node to get the distance from your roots to your rock objects. Then use that to shrink-wrap the curve of your roots to the position of the rocks. You gave me a good idea! :D

@ZennExile 2 місяці тому

@@KenanProffittthere's always been this unnatural separation of trees and plants based on the terrain textures, and it's always felt so wrong. Trees will grow out of the crook of a branch in a larger tree... plants will grow from a thimble of dirt on the top of a boulder. And the roots of a large tree will wrap around a boulder to reach the soil beneath it, over time even lift it up off the ground. Like a fence someone forgot 50 years ago on a farm in the midwest that's now fully incorporated into a tree halfway up its trunk. Plants should grow everywhere on everything that doesn't poison, freeze, or cook them. It's bugged me for a decade.
