SECTION 8 - Essence Settings and Other Attributes

25] Quick & dirty way to make trees, By Greg Tsadilas (Imagine 2.9)

This technique uses Steven Blackmore's FRPAINT texture, available only for Imagine PC version.

Add a default primitive sphere and modify Color value to 80, 80, 80 then add DINOSKIN texture:

 Column One     Two
        5       0
        5       0.5
        5       0
        1     200
        0.3   100
        0.6     0.5
        1       0.7
        1       0

Add Steven Blackmore's FRPAINT texture:

 Column One     Two
       80       0
       80       0
       80       0
        0       0
      255       0
      255       0
      255       0
        0       0

The leaves are deformed spheres with DINOSKIN texture applied to them; the shape, color, size and bump values can be adjusted to Your liking.

As You add more and more layers of filtered objects, You may notice some sphere rendered as solid black: You'll need to increase the RSDP (Resolve Depth) value.
