Xfrog 5 Maya 2011 x32Bit & 64Bit
Xfrog 5 adds six new procedural Objects to Maya. By combining these with Maya components/objects you can create a wide variety of organic models and animations using organic procedures (based on some of the building blocks of Nature).
Our tools behave exactly like Maya components, so you can keyframe them and combine them with PaintEffects or Particle animations or use MEL Scripts to drive them – the possibilities are nearly endless.
Branch Object - create multi-level branching structures with extensive parameters to allow you to give them a natural look and feel..
Phyllotaxis Object – arrange components on an abitrary surface of revolution, according to the rules of nature (golden section). It is, for example, used in the sunflower screenshot above to arrange petals and seeds.
Hydra Object arranges components in user defined specialized circular patterns.
Curvature Object creates Splines which can be used as a basis for naturally curved leafs or twigs.
Variation Object allows you to use and multiply different Objects with the Branch, Phyllotaxis and Hydra Objects, for example you can use different leaves scattered throughout a tree, or any sort of variations that you need for higher realism.
Tropism Object lets your spline-based objects or works created with the Branch Object, all bend towards a gravity or light point. e.g. all branches bending downward in a very specific way or reaching upwards towards light. keyframe this during Growth animations.
What’s New
What’s new section is intended for users ofXfrog 3.5 and earlier releases, as a list of the new features available in Xfrog 5. It is also intendedfor the existing users of Maya to see what is added by installation of Xfrog .
Xfrog 5 Improvements
• Multi-track animation
• Soft Insert animation feature;
removes "popping”
• Phyllotaxis (Phiball) can place objects
on any Surface of Revolution
• Phyllotaxis now allows direct control of
the orientation of multiplied objects
• Branch Object combines the power of the
Tree, Leaf and Horn Components
• Branch Object mesh resolution is independent
from number of branches
• Branch Object can now generate several
branches per node
• Curve Control now uses spline curves to
control parameters and allows for much
better control
• Any Maya curve can control Xfrog
Objects even text curves
• Curve Nurbs offers controls similar to
the Xfrog 3.5 Horn Component, while being
more flexible
• Hydra offers more control
• New Variation Object allows exceptions in
the iterations of multiplier Objects
• Level Of Detail offers more control
