Overview
ScatterCraft is a comprehensive and highly customizable Geometry Nodes setup
for Blender, designed to streamline object scattering for environment design,
VFX, and procedural art. With advanced controls for distribution,
transformation, randomization, and animation, ScatterCraft empowers artists to
create detailed, dynamic scenes with ease. Whether you're scattering objects
across a surface, animating reveals, or fine-tuning micro-details, this setup
offers a non-destructive, procedural workflow that integrates seamlessly into
your Blender projects.
Features
- Flexible Distribution: Scatter objects on a single target object or an entire collection with adjustable density (default: 50,000), seed (default: 0), and minimum distance (default: 0.1m).
- Child Object Handling: Options like "Separate Children" and "Reset Children" (enabled by default) give you precise control over child objects in collections.
- Transform Controls: Fine-tune translations, rotations, and scales for both objects and collections:
- Object: Default scale at 0.8 (X/Y), translation and rotation at 0.
- Collection: Default scale at 1.0 (X/Y), translation and rotation at 0.
- Randomization Options: Enable scale and rotation randomization for both objects and collections:
- Scale range: 0.5 to 1.0 (default).
- Rotation settings: Adjustable animate, scale, detail, roughness, lacunarity, and distortion (defaults: 1.0, 1.0, 15.0, 0.0, 2.0, 2.0 respectively).
- Micro-Target Influence: Control scattering with influence objects/collections at a micro level (default influence: 50,000).
- Animation Support: Enable reveal animations with a designated revealer object and distance settings (From Min/Max: 1.5/0.5, To Min/Max: 0.0/1.0).
- Blender Compatibility: Optimized for Blender 4.0 and above, leveraging the latest Geometry Nodes features.
- Asset Browser Ready: Easily append or drag-and-drop the node group into your scenes via Blender’s Asset Browser.
