Description
My result from the grass tutorial on the nature academy,
Includes all the grass settings, node setups, background mountain etc.
Does not include the background foliage and textures as I am unsure on the licenses.
Review of the Nature Academy

Animation from this blend is in the first few seconds of my showreel
http://vimeo.com/28190492
Be wary this is 20Mb compressed 60Mb or so normal.
and no I'm not "promoting" myself or the nature academy, I simply can't be bothered rendering out just the animation of the grass for an example video.
Let me know if there is any other scenes from my reel you'd like to see on blendswap :D
C&C welcome

Hi Metalix, Thanks for releasing this - since Andrew created the old grass tutorial I've been looking for an update for the 2.5 settings and techniques. Jay :)
Your welcome, yup all in blender, the key to nature in blender is translucency(light shines through object), and area diffuse(global diffuse setting for grass)
Your welcome Best of luck with your progress :D
@Qzyxya Yes I use a lot of effects from video copilot in my work. and your welcome :D
This is Epic, Highly Realistic To!
@Metalix: If I examine the .blend to see how you do it, but don't actually use any of the file in my project, do I still have to license my project under the CC 3.0 BY license?
@Gallus you don't have to credit me even if you use it lol As you are using the technique, not the file you can license as you wish anyway. I'm happy for you to treat this as CC-0 :D
Awesome! Thanks! :D
this appears to be a rar file on my pc. how to i put it in blender cuz it wont let me
Nickboy, you have to unrar it first, so find a program for you OS and unrar it, then you'll get a .blend file.
Thx!
Absolutely awesome! Cant wait to finish mine
wow i really love the bloom effects
wow
@metalix have you done the desert scene in the nature academy (chapter 11) right now I am really stuck with desert bushes, and the blend of that scene would be a big help. Could you please swap the blendfile of this scene? :)
Hi, I may upload in the next week if I have time, quite busy atm. However if you log into the nature academy and go to the tutorial, Andrew has a link to his original source file
thanks for the reply! :) I haven't participated in the nature academy, right now it's too expensive for me :( (Sorry forgot to write that.) I am stuck with desert bushes in my own scene, I tried with particle system (Hair) or modelling by hand, and it looked just ugly, so thats why I asked for your blend :)
You are extremely talented.
WaW!!! Thank you.
Hi Andrew. Awesome stuff there! Could you please tell me how to get rid of the mist, just to see how the scene looks like without it? Thanks!
Awesome
Can someone please help me out? I can't figure out how to append these blends into my blender project! How do you do it to get the entire blend into your project? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated! :)
Hi Metalix. I need ur help plz respond as fast as possible. I want to add an animated text to this blend but i cant erase the blur that hits the text from the back. E-mail me plz : Enigmaoftomorrowsart@gmail.com
This is absolutely STUNNING grass!
Am totally speechless right now, all I can say is "Amazing!!!"

Can I use this in game please?

How do I set it up to make it look like the picture @metalix
The date of the release is 2011. I fear some troubles with outdated technics. Blender grows fast.
