This Variation: This version is for use with Vue, versions for DazStudio and Poser also available. Notes: It formed large trunk-like structures up to 1 metre wide, reaching 8 metres in height, made up of tiny interwoven tubules around 50 micrometres in diameter, making it by far the largest land-dwelling organism of its time. It is widely considered a fungus, but the debate is ongoing. Its exact relationship with extant fungus lineages is uncertain. It was almost certainly a perennial organism that grew over multiple years. Several ecologies have been proposed, including that it was saprotrophic (feeds on dead organic material) like many modern fungi. Presets in this Package: 12 High Poly and 12 Low Poly. 1. Standard. Fully mature and in good health. Useable in most scenes. 2. Thriving. Peak health. 3. Distressed. Declining health with some diseased and broken foliage. 4. Unhealthy. Poor state with considerable foliage missing or diseased. 5. Dying. Just hanging onto life and showing only unhealthy and diseased foliage. 6. Dead. Showing only bare and broken branches and dead foliage. 7. Ancient. Very old, larger and considerably gnarled. 8. Young. Smaller, fully mature but still growing. 9. Growing. Not yet mature, some half way through its growing cycle. 10. Immature. Very small and young. 11. Forming. Extremely young and small but taking on its adult shape. 12. Emerging. Recently sprouted. All models can be switched between High Poly for close up renders, image or video production, and Low Poly for distant renders, use as game assets, or in real-time applications. All materials in this package are certified PBR compliant and have been tested in Unity and Unreal. Any reasonable modification available upon request. No charge to existing customers of the product, please contact via site mail. Included are two versions, a full and a LITE version. Both versions give good results, but the full version is more accurate and better for hero or close up renders. The LITE version is intended mainly for mid or distant renders or eco use, or use on low end PCs. EVERYPlant has a mission ... which is to model every plant species in the world (plus some extinct, fantasy and sci-fi variations as well)! Okay, maybe not EVERY plant! If you don't see it in our store, please get in contact; we have thousands of species on file awaiting upload. Thank you for purchasing this product. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- System requirements ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PC and Mac compatible Accessed via Vue (a free product) or The Plant Factory (a free product). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Necessary Files ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a stand alone item, complete unto itself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Installation instructions ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unzip to a location on your HDD. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Usage Tips/limitations ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The included file(s) requires either Vue or The Plant Factory (TPF) to load.
