First thing I did was feed this asset a tube 7 m tall...guess what: it grew vines! Observations: -By default the vines grow all around the tube. - Reversing the direction of the Geo reverses the direction of vine growth. Then I gave it a nurbs curve for an input and got decent results with that too. There is an option to use custom shaders for both the vine and its leaves. Nice touch.
