Tree Generator 1.1   
by Nicolas BONNEEL   

This new year of 2001 I've decided to help some people (graphists) in their job.... nice isn't it ? So, I've made this software : a Tree Generator, based on some simple algorithms : Each branch has 3 children branches which are rotated from a certain angle from their parent, which are scaled (reduced) and translated (along their parent direction) ... and this is processed how many times we'd like (here, limited to 9 times ... but that's enough for a very good looking tree) so it (try to) makes reallistic trees.

In other way, it's just called a L-Parser algorithm.

Once the tree is created, you can export it (DXF format) and use it in most of 3D softwares (ALL Autodesk ones : Autocad, 3DSMax...and lots of other softwares)

Now, I've added leaves generation, a random ability for each parameter and a better previewing quality...
