Excellent! Now make the Mother tree.

OOPS, Home tree. Yikes! I'm sure I went to the movie.

cyphyr,

Is it possible to create the levitating mountains? That would be cool.

I have tried and tried again 

One can use very small planets, use a spherical projected image map to distort the sphere into a "squarer" shape and then roughen that up a bit with further PF displacements. This can be done with the sphere and rock object as well but only the planet will allow a population to sit on it properly. The trouble is that all fractal textures "emanate" from the centre of the object they are applied to, not the look I'm after. I've been looking at camera projection, but the results aren't that good.

Be assured I'll post as soon as I get a solution.

It reads like a new function is needed, transform center. This could be applied to a particular node group.

The beginings of something, still a way to go. I cant seem to get the tree populations to sit properly and if I give them any +/- scale vairation they move their vertical position relative to each instances individual scaling ... .. . odd

Richard,

Unbelievable! This is so cool. I'm not sure how much time you want to devote to this but, a final with a couple floating and jungle on the ground underneath.

Spectacular!
