Not sure if this one has been posted or not but this is the same as Luft's Ivy Generator but can be used directly within Max / Viz.
Enjoy!

I was testing it out just now and it seems to be pretty fast compared to the 3rd party program. The ivy grows with no slow down on my machine.

Mapping is some strange. I can't doing maxwell opacity mapping with this.

Thanks a lot!
And this version has more useful things:
additional notes:
ivy's shouldn't grow on windows, correct ?
to inform the ivy of such situations you have to freeze your window-meshes
this way such a frozen mesh will still be used for collision-detection,
but the branches will die there faster than on unfrozen meshes
And the "Age" spinner is great!

Indeed. It seems to recognize surfaces alot better than the other Ivy gen. You rarely get the ivy intersecting through a wall.
The capability to animate it growing is fantastic as well.

But not necessarily for Maxwell users...
