TreeShaper for Blender 2.0
Grow nature with precision.
TreeShaper empowers artists, game developers, and environment designers to create beautiful trees in seconds — now with a completely overhauled geometry engine for cleaner topology, custom UVs, and stunning new shaping controls.
Key Features:
- Instant Tree Generation: Generate fully-formed trees from a minimal interface — no need to build branches manually. TreeShaper handles trunk, root, and branch generation intelligently.
- Customizable Tree Shapes: Tailor your trees to perfection by defining grow zones for branches and roots and no-grow zones, allowing for unique shapes that fit your scene.
- (New) Quad-based Topology: Version 2.0 replaces Blender’s skin modifier with a custom quad meshing system, offering cleaner geometry for sculpting and subdivision, better compatibility with game engines and modifiers, and natural branch attachments that look great even up close.
- UV Maps Included: Every generated tree now includes clean, unwrapped UVs for easier material application, texturing, and baking.
- Dynamic Regrowth: Easily change the grow and no-grow zones and regrow your tree, giving you total control over your creations.
- Versatile Parameters: Adjust essential tree characteristics, including density, trunk width, Twist, and gnarliness, with natural but customizable parameters. Fine-tune effects like tropism (the influence of gravity or wind) and growth decay to encourage new branching.
- (New) Twist Factor for stylized spiraling effects — adjustable per length or per segment.
- Built-in Geometry Nodes: TreeShaper comes with geometry nodes pre-configured for twig distribution and includes a library of preset trees, complete with bark textures, twig, and leaf models. The basic version features an oak tree, with pine and birch models in development for the premium version.
-
Tree Preset Library: Start fast with included presets. TreeShaper Basic ships with a realistic oak tree and full bark/leaf materials.
Coming Soon: Birch and Pine presets in the upcoming Premium version.
Stop fighting the branches — shape them.
With TreeShaper 2.0, you're no longer limited to generic trees. Shape nature’s path with precision — and bring your environments to life.
