Labs Tree Tools

This tool is part of the FREE and open-source toolset in Houdini called SideFXLabs. The Tree Tools in Labs consist out of several tools that can be used together to create intricate branching structures such as trees, bushes, plants and much more. The set of tools contain a controller, trunk generator, branch generator, branch placer, leaf generator. The output of the tools is geometry ready for engine (or a highpoly), and internal curves that can be used for simulation purposes.
