In Conclusion

Xfrog (Evaluation Version)

Xfrog is a very interesting plant modeling tool. I have included this software because it is a great example of how you can create interesting shapes and animations once you begin to think in terms of parameters. In some of the later examples (such as the spring model), I stressed the advantages of thinking in terms of parametric objects. Although many of the Xfrog features are not NURBS-based, nearly all of them feature some form of parametric control. You will find that you can create some amazing shapes and animations with this tool. Graphics cards are beginning to be fast enough that you can consider filling your game worlds with these lifelike plants.
