I played around with the ivy generator this morning because I wanted to render something in indigo, and I made this scene.

Great!
bit much DOF effect tho, and I think the leaves are upside down?

hey man

great work, how did you handle the export of the scene... its obviously blender but whenever i made even slightly detailed ivy entanglments blender through out mem issuues on export. also when i tried to render just a bit of ivy using blendigo, it didnt pick up my alibedo's gave an error once indigo ran.

did yu have any of these problems?
if so how did you overcome them?

DOF would be OK if the focus was near the front/middle of the image, not at the back.

@ Ono: Yeah, you're right about the leaves. I didn't notice that.

@ Matsta: The export of the scene went flawless but when indigo started building trees I thought for a while that it was going to crash. It took up 1.94Gb of my swap file and almost hit the ceiling of it. I had no problem with the leaf material. I had made tests with a leaf material previously.

Yeah, try to increase the swap file, that might help

This is what it looks like when I am exporting. You can see it decrease by the end.

Hmm, if there's a Problem with the RAM I can render it for you on 2GbRAM on 2 1,5GhZ Dual Core =Ghz ... PC's (perhaps I can get a third one ^^ 2,4GhzDual 2GbRAM) ^^.

I rendered another one with slight modifications. The leaves are not upside down anymore and it's higher res

Is it normal that if i launch IVY on over a blender exported (with triangulate) simple scene and add just a small with no many branches generation, IVY hangs for hours consuming CPU and "not responding" ???

What matters more is what processor you have.
