Asset Placer Pro
I found a bug or have an idea. How do I reach you?
Message me through Superhive. Include your Blender version and a screenshot if you can, and I'll get back to you.
Can I use it in commercial projects?
Yes. Use it for client work, games, renders and anything else you make.
Does it need an internet connection or an account?
No. It's a normal Blender add-on with nothing to log in to.
Can I save my own settings?
Yes. Use Save Preset in the Scatter panel. Your presets are available in every Blender file.
Does the wind work in renders and in game engines?
It works in Blender renders and animations. It's not kept when you use Make Real, because game engines handle wind themselves.
Can I export the scatter to a game engine?
Yes. Make Real turns a layer into real objects, either linked copies or one merged mesh. Export them like any other objects.
Can I keep paths, roads and buildings clear?
Yes. Put them in a collection and pick it under Keep Clear → Objects. Set a margin and a soft edge so it looks natural.
Can I paint assets by hand as well as scatter them automatically?
Yes. Use Paint, Erase, Place (single clicks) and Row (lines of assets) on any layer. You can mix hand-painted assets with the automatic scatter, or switch the automatic scatter off and only paint.
Will a big scatter slow down or crash Blender?
There's a Max Instances safety limit, so it can't run away. For big scenes, switch the viewport display to Boxes or Points, lower Viewport %, or use Only Near Camera. Renders always show the full scatter.
My assets float above the ground or sink into it. Why?
Their origin isn't at the bottom of the model. The panel warns you about this, and Fix Origins moves each origin to the base in one click.
Can I use my own assets?
Yes. Any mesh objects work: trees, rocks, grass, props, buildings. Put them in a collection, or select them and click Assets from Selection.
Does it work with EEVEE and Cycles?
Yes, both. The scatter is plain Geometry Nodes, so it renders like any other object.
Which Blender versions does it work with?
Blender 4.2 and newer. It's tested up to Blender 5.2.
