## Birth Options

|  | - create or recreate geometry from grown ivy structure
| - diameter of branch geometry relative to Ivy Size or chosen units
| - size of leaf geometry relative to Ivy Size or chosen units
| - density of leaves
| - create ivy as polygon mesh object
| - create adult leaf, young leaf, and branches as three separate polygon objects (placed under a Null object)
| - create adult and young leaves as two sets of Cinema 4D R11.5 Render Instances (each placed under a Null object; Separate Branch/Leaf Objects is implicit)
| - create a spline object representing the ivy branches
| - child spline object to a Sweep NURBS object
| - taper sweep to this scale at end of growth
| - use the spline referenced here as cross-sectional spline of Sweep NURBS
| - create a special IGSpline object for animating the ivy branch growth
| - child spline object to a Sweep NURBS object
| - taper sweep to this scale at end of growth
| - use the spline referenced here as cross-sectional spline of Sweep NURBS
| - restore above options to default values
| - preview of resulting materials for Adult Leaf, Young Leaf, Branch using texture maps and settings below
| - image files to use for Adult Leaf, Young Leaf, Branch Color channel textures
| - image files to use for Adult Leaf, Young Leaf, Branch Bump channel textures
| - image files to use for Adult Leaf, Young Leaf, Branch Normal channel textures (not available in R9 version)
| - image files to use for Adult Leaf and Young Leaf Alpha channel textures
| - Alpha channel configuration options (same as Cinema 4D Alpha channel)
| - restore maps to default image files
