Brand New Addons This Week

the world of addons and extensions is always growing with exciting new addons, tools, extensions and generators, this week was no different as we saw a number of new exciting tools that will transform how you work. the blender extensions platform also is a growing space as more and more addons are getting converted and ready for installation over at the blender extensions platform where you can take a look at them right now, in the same spirit , i jumped in making some new tools my self like the assemble everything tool, a traffic generator, a debris tool and a rain generator, all available as full tutorials and ready to use generators, alot happened this week so lets get to it.

Simple Bend

the first tool in this list is a simple bend tool, unlike the builtin bend modifier, this comes with more options more control and works directly in edit mode, and with the selected part of your mesh, what i really like about it over the bend modifier is that, its under a right click menu where you can easily access it.

IronMan 3 Assemble

the next tool is the assemble tool, this is my own generator, you know i’m something of a developer my self, so i made this tool that easily lets you assemble objects together, say a robot like iron man, or a fractured statue, all you need is to have all the parts in a collection and the tool will scatter the pieces according to your settings and add forces to attract and assemble them back, btw i have a complete video on how to set this up from scratch if you want to learn some geometry nodes,

Debris tool

that was not all i did, most scatter tools, scatter debris and objects randomly, but when you go out in the real world, debris is just pieces of an object that fall off, and they never fall far from the original object, so i setout to make a tool that can replicate this behavior, and thats what this debris tool is.

Blender Grid Units Addon

Addons dont have to always be complicated tools they can be simple life improvement tools like our next addon, blender grid units, this just marks units onto your grid so that you always no the correct scale of your objects and edits instead of doing guess work, this is particularly useful if you are making game assets or assets you plan to use in other DCCs.

Procedural animated Flowers

the next addon on our list is a library of animated procedural animated flowers that you can drag and drop into your projects, these have a number of parameters you can use to change and adjust your animations to add variations

Terraform

our next addon is terraform, a procedural layer based addon that gives you a simple way to create terrains with a layer based system, giving you a non destructive way of adding detail, am liking the direction of new addons using not just procedural tools but also adding a layer based workflow which makes everything easy to use and understand, another amazing feature about terraform is the erosion tool, which adds erosion to all your layers blending all the detail together.

Offset Cut – Blender Extension

the next new addon in this list is offset cut, a blender extension that lets you weld connecting geometry with a nice loop, that overlaps the intersecting geomerty connecting them together with smooth transitional geometry with proper edge flow.

Alien Worlds

if you are making alien worlds, this new addon is a must, its a procedural world generator that provides exceptional control over, celestial bodies, including planets, stars and black holes, allowing full customization with features like craters, oceans, clouds, mountains and more.

Air Flight Addon

some animations are better left to addons, like this air flight addon, it comes with aircrafts, clouds, drones and a motion tool that will animate the aircrafts for you, so dont have a boring scene when you can simply add a chopa flying over with ease.

Procedural Birds Flocks

if thats not enough, try adding procedural birds using the next addon in our list, procedural bird flocks. this addon comes with a collection of its birds, and a system that populates and animates the birds for you, the addon also comes creates birds in different formations and flight styles.

Line Connection

the next addon we have is line connection, this is going to be quite useful for anyone doing commercials in blender, because making line animations like this can be a headache yet alot of commercial projects require them.

Conjuresdf For Blender 3.3 

for hardsurface modelers, conjure sdf, is a new tool that brings plasticity functionality to blender, you can create impossible shapes with great level of detail, in a non destructive workflow.

Deep Paint

some workflows are too complicated and inaccessible to regular artists, but when those workflows are compacted into an addon, just like this addon, deep paint, now we are talking, imagine doing what is shown here but without any addon, this can take you hours if not days to setup, with this addon, it takes just a few seconds.

Locomotion Addon – Traffic, Crowds

another amazing tool we have in this list is locomotion, this addon can handle crowd simulation, swarm generations, traffic simulation and more, it also comes with its own assets but also lets you use your own.

real rain generator

and finaly we will end with another tool i made my self, and that is the rain generator, this is a full project i made with a tutorial you can watch to see how tools like the ones we have seen can be made, so if you want to get into addon development subscribe and like

thanks.
