What you’ll learn:

00:00 - Introduction & Overview
A quick tour of the tutorial goals and what you’ll learn using Forest Pack Lite or Pro — setting up the base scene and preparing for your first scatter.
00:40 - Creating a Basic Grass Scatter with Presets
Learn how to quickly add vegetation using Forest Pack’s built-in presets, adjust display modes, and optimize your viewport performance.
04:03 - Adding Trees with 3D Library Assets
Import tree models from the Forest Pack library, set up surfaces efficiently, and control distribution with areas, exclusions, and transforms.
06:30 - Scattering Custom Objects from the Scene
Use your own 3D models - like Chaos Cosmos assets - and learn how to populate directly from the scene, link multiple Forest Pack objects, and control exclusions.
09:14 - Fine-Tuning with Custom Edit Mode
Manually move, scale, or delete individual scattered items for precise composition control, and see how Custom Edit Mode integrates with procedural workflows.
11:10 - Simulating Natural Growth Patterns with Clusters
Add multiple layers of shrubs and plants using the Clusters feature to achieve realistic natural groupings, with control over size, noise, and collisions.
14:52 - Using Falloff Curves for Smooth Transitions
Blend the edges of areas using density and scale falloffs to create natural-looking paths and worn grass, including height-only effects for realism.
17:20 - Scattering Along Open Splines and the Lake Edge
Create a stepping-stone path using open splines, then add rocks around the lake using Force Open Splines, collisions, and falloff curves for smooth blending.
21:30 - Painting Vegetation with Paint Areas
Use Forest Pack’s fully procedural Paint Areas to manually scatter plants, adjust distribution and transforms, and paint directly from the camera view.
