Treeparameterize

Resamples and parameterises an input tree geometry, transferring attributes onto the resampled curves. Used to bring externally-authored or imported tree shapes into the parameterised form Natsura's downstream nodes expect.

Treeparameterize resamples and parameterises an input tree geometry, transferring vertex, primitive, and point attributes onto the resampled curves. Used when bringing externally-authored or imported tree shapes (curves from another DCC, hand-drawn skeletons, etc.) into the parameterised form Natsura's downstream nodes expect.

Parameters

Input

ParameterDescription
Base GroupGroup expression for selecting the input strands to operate on.
Group TypeType of the group selection.

Strands

ParameterDescription
ResampleResample mode.
SubdivideSubdivision control.
Step LengthTarget length per resampled step.
SmoothSmoothing applied to the resampled strands.
InterpolateInterpolation mode used during resampling.
ExtendExtension behaviour at the strand ends.

Attributes

ParameterDescription
Source UvSource UV attribute name.
Select Input / Vertex AttributesToggle and list for transferring vertex attributes.
Select Input / Primitive AttributesToggle and list for transferring primitive attributes.
Select Input / Point AttributesToggle and list for transferring point attributes.
Point ModePer-point handling mode for attribute transfer.
Transfer SkinningToggle for transferring skinning weights.
Input 1 already splitToggle indicating that the input has already been split per-strand.

Notes

  • Set the resample mode and step length to match the granularity Natsura's downstream nodes need, then select which attributes to transfer before feeding the result into the decoration or simulation chain.
