SCI-FIX | User Documentation

This guide covers the basic setup and control of the SCI-FIX procedural generator.

1. Installation and Interface

• Requirements: Blender 4.5 or higher.

• Access: After installation, the tool is located in the N-Panel (Sidebar) under the "scifix" tab.

• Panel Layout: The UI includes two main execution buttons (Add Building and Space Fill) followed by parameter sliders.

2. Main Functions

• Add Building: Spawns a single procedural tower at the 3D cursor's location.

• Space Fill: Distributes multiple buildings across a defined area or object to create a cluster.

3. Parameter Controls

The following settings allow you to modify the generated geometry:

• Seed: Randomizes the structural arrangement and detail placement of the building.

• Height: Controls the vertical scale and number of floors.

• Lights Density: Adjusts the amount of emissive window panels on the surface.

• Grid/Cubes Density: Increases or decreases the frequency of surface "greebles" and paneling.

• Lowpoly Toggle: Simplifies the mesh to maintain viewport performance during heavy scenes.

• Foundation & Top Plate: Checkboxes to enable or disable the bottom base and the roof structures.

4. Night Mode & Lighting

• Night Mood: A checkbox that activates emissive materials for low-light renders.

• Lights Strength: A slider to control the brightness and intensity of the glowing parts.

• Color: Allows you to set the primary light color for the emissive panels.

5. Technical Notes

• Geometry Nodes: The tool is built entirely on Geometry Nodes, making it non-destructive.

• Optimization: For large city clusters, it is recommended to keep "lowpoly" active while blocking out the scene.
