Documentation

Each add-on installs separately and has its own full manual. This page takes you from download to a first render; the linked manuals cover every setting.

Install

1. Download the five .zip files
2. In Blender 4.2 or later, open Edit > Preferences > Add-ons.
3. Open the drop-down arrow at the top right and choose Install from Disk.
4. Select one .zip file and install it. Repeat for the other four.
5. Check that all five add-ons are enabled in the list.

You can also drag a .zip file straight into the Blender window to install it.

Burn FX

1. Select a mesh and choose a preset: Paper, Wood, Cloth, Character or Metal Heat.
2. Drag the Burn slider from 0 to 1, or click Animate Burn to key it over a frame range.
3. On heavy meshes, click Bake for Playback. The fire's look stays editable after baking.

Peel Effect

2. To direct the peel, use Draw Peel Path, the Peel Knife or the Shed tool.
3. Click Peel HUD in the viewport header to adjust settings while the peel plays.

The first peel takes about 5 seconds to build its setup. Later peels load instantly.

Stain Dynamics

To add rainbow rings around lights, select the lamps or glowing objects and add Light Halos.
