I've moved this post as I'm guessing it's better placed in the ICE subforum.
But to try to answer your question: Could you perhaps explain a little bit better, what you're trying to achieve? Strands are definitively a normal part of ICE, not a plug-in...
;)

Strand tree is a plugin. It can be found here

hi i got the strand tree plug in , but in that im not getting the simulate tree & Move tree nodes , what is the problem , in some tutor they have showed by connecting simulate tree & Move tree nodes we can simulate the object how to get simulate tree & Move tree nodes (is it other plug in ?) (does it works as relastic tree )

I saw the tutorial on Fabricio's website. It seems the simulation part is still a work in progress. Maybe he'll contact you since you left a note on his page.

Hi kalas,

as Reinhard stated, trees simulation are still a wip. I've attached the test scene (same from video) so that you can take a look inside and maybe change it to fit your needs. *warning: not an easy task! =)

Hi fabricio.chamon thanks for sending the file .

Hi fabricio.chamon can we take that tree simulation into maya ?

fabricio.chamon · Post by **fabricio.chamon** » 23 Dec 2010, 14:10

no, since strandtree is based on strands, and maya does not import strands.
you could bake all the sim to mesh, then import and obj sequence, but this would be a very slow and ineficient setup. sorry
