Factor by which all plant species are scaled.

Factor by which the density of all plant species is scaled.

Scale of the offset to slightly alter the plant ages. Ages are jittered by a value of -0.5 to 0.5 times this scale. Jittering the age will introduce chaos and break up the artificial smooth profile of a forest. Age is then clamped between 0 and 1.

The random number seed used to scatter points.

Enables post-processing culling.

Method for culling.

Percentage to Keep: Method for culling by percentage.

Maximum Number: Method for culling by maximum number.

Points exceeding this number are culled.

Percentage of points that are not culled.

Enables the masking of points by the third input. A heightfield mask and/or geometry will be subtracted from the soil mask to prevent plants from scattering in the masked area.

Geometry to reference if the current plant point’s age is not covered by the plant specie’s Normalized Age Range parameters defined by the Biome Plant Define SOP. Preview results with an Instance SOP.

No Geometry: Plant points are removed from the scatter.

Debug Spheres: The point’s instance attribute, Mesh Path, references a colored sphere. This geometry is useful for debugging.

Closest Age Mesh Variant: The point’s instance attribute, Mesh Path, references the mesh variant with the closest age range to the current plant point’s age.

A color value that is easily distinguishable from the color of plant mesh variants.

The scale of the Incomplete Age Coverage debug sphere.

Geometry to reference if the current plant point’s Mesh Variant is missing or invalid. Preview results with an Instance SOP.

No Geometry: Plant points are removed from the scatter.

Debug Spheres: The point’s instance attribute, Mesh Path, references a colored sphere. This geometry is useful for debugging.

A color value that is easily distinguishable from the color of plant mesh variants.

The scale of the Invalid Mesh Path debug sphere.

The name of the temperature heightfield layer.

The name of the precipitation heightfield layer.

The name of the soil heightfield layer.

Output the Mesh Variants detail string array.

Name of the Mesh Variants detail string array. A list of unique strings that are the instance references. These references should point to files on disk or op: operator references. Only the mesh variants present in the scatter are included in the Mesh Variants array.

Output the Unreal Asset Paths detail string array.

Name of the Unreal Asset Paths detail string array. A list of unique strings that are the unreal instance paths. These references should point to the asset’s reference.

Name of the mesh path point attribute, also known as the instance attribute.

Output the Unreal Asset Path point attribute.

Name of the Unreal Asset Path point attribute.

Output the Age point attribute.

Name of the Age point attribute.

Output the Viability point attribute.

Name of the Viability point attribute.

Output the Mesh ID integer piece attribute.

Name of the Mesh ID integer piece attribute. This attribute is the enumeration of the Mesh Path attribute.

Output the Unreal Mesh ID integer piece attribute. This attribute is needed for the PCG Export SOP.

Name of the Unreal Mesh ID integer piece attribute. This attribute is the enumeration of the Unreal Asset Path attribute.

Output Plant Points group.

Name of Plant Points group. This is a group of all the points of the first output.

Output a plant viability heightfield layer per plant species with the second output.

String added at the beginning of each plant viability heightfield layer name. Name = Prefix + Species ID Name.

Visualizes the points colored by their attributes.

Attribute to color the points by.

Plant Species: Color by the Species ID Color defined by the Biome Plant Define SOP or assign random colors from the Species ID Name attribute when Assign Random Colors is enabled.

Viability: Color by the Viability attribute.

Age: Color by the Age attribute.

Assign random colors from the Species ID Name.

Seed for the random colors.

Control how colors map to attribute values. Colors on the left correspond to lower attribute values while colors on the right correspond to higher attribute values.

Visualizes the terrain. Note: If Mode is set to Display Plant Inventory there is no terrain to display.

Visualizes a Species Viability heightfield layer as a red mask. The more red, the more likely the plant species will be scattered in that area. Navigate to the Output tab and enable Output Plant Viability Layers to output these heightfield layers to the second output.

The current plant species to visualize.
