The tool lets Max users replace the original Ivy Grow plugin by Guruware. The new plugin is said to be a port of Thomas Luft’s open-source Ivy Generator tool.
The new tool is both a plugin and a MAXScript for simplicity and availability. It has been developed as a GUP plug-in (some of the parts are written in C++ and used through MAXScript). The tool is using C++ to grow the ivy and the branches and leaves are generated using Maxscript.
