Overview

Useful links, guides and information on using Flora.

Flora lets you render large numbers of objects as instances (drawn from shared prefab data instead of one full GameObject rendering path per item). It is designed for terrain foliage, converted scene prefabs, and runtime-spawned populations.

Common

• Render terrain trees/details with Flora: Terrain Provider

• Convert existing prefab objects: Conversion

• Spawn and control instances in code: System

• Tune visibility/performance: Render Settings, Density Settings, Culling Pipeline

Concepts

• BRG (Batch Renderer Group): Unity GPU-driven rendering path Flora uses for scalable draw submission.

• Instance Container: a serialized list of instance transforms for large static/semi-static sets.

• Volume Override: scene regions that override render/density settings.

Samples

• Tree Wrecking Ball

• Tree Effect

• Fish Boids
