RpTreeMaker is a new, free, product that construction modelers can use to create realistic, fractal trees and place them into the SketchUp model as 2D face-camera components. Program parameters (Tree Type, Number of Trunks, Bending, Crookedness, and Leaf Type) let users easily create custom trees for a construction model that might be critical to planning the production of a project.
This new plug-in makes it possible to add depth and realism to a SketchUp model, including quickly and easily adding a large variety of trees to match existing site conditions. This would be important in site utilization planning, selectively clearing existing trees for construction, or modeling a specific management technique for working on heavily wooded jobsites.
Render Plus Systems is a software development group in Centennial,
Render Plus started out with two products: 1) RPS 3D PDF, which lets SketchUp users create interactive 3D PDF documents from SketchUp drawings that could be especially useful in construction communication, and 2) a set of programmatic routines called RpTools that makes it easier to place and manipulate model components in order to fill rooms and quickly populate a working jobsite with repetitive element such as safety railings, fencing, scaffolding, or falsework.
