  • where is the hierarchy editor xfrog C4d?? xfrog newbie

    Hi

    Im trying to learn Xfrog 4.4 on C4d but havent got very far because I cant find the hierarchy editor.
    in the online tutorials they say to launch Xfrog but i cant see that- is it a standalone app? Ive downloaded it from the Xfrog website and have a 30 day trial key, i can see it in the plugins when i launch C4d but where on earth is the hierarchy editor for xfrog that all the online tuts start with?

    thanks for any help on this. I would like to get further than just the installation stage!

    There is not heirarchy editor with the plugin. It uses the regular Object Manager.

    Doesn’t the plugin demo come with a manual?

    No it doesnt.

    Ive followed the online sunflower tutorial but it doesnt show you how to animate it growing.
    ive animated the petals using curves but when I change the growth parameter of branch it grows in reverse. IE from the top down and not other way round.
    How do make it grow from ground upwards?

    Thanks for any help.

    Hmm, it’s been a while and I don’t have an R12 registration for Xfrog yet (if it’s even supported). But here’s a link to the manual: https://www.xfrogdownloads.com/greenwebNew/support/Xfrog_4_c4d_manual_english_web.pdf
