Baga Rain Generator

Documentation

What is Rain Generator ?

Baga Rain generator is an add-on dedicated to rain generation.

Rain generator is available for B3.3 to B3.6

How it works ?

Select an object then you can then generate an ivy from the Npannel.

​

The Baga Rain Generator panel lets you adjust rain parameters to suit your scene perfectly.

Installation & Utilisation

Installation : Baga Ivy Generator installs like any other addon 
Edit > Preference > addons > installation then restart Blender


Access : Edit > Preference > addon  and N panel (addon panel)

​

Create : To create a new rain, select an object > Npanel > Add New Rain

​

Note :

_ In the add-ons' preferences panel, you can set certain rainfall defaults. This allows you to set your own preferences or reduce the default values to optimize your scene.

_ Warning ! Rain generator works thanks to the timeline, so remember to turn it off to avoid slowing down your computer.

Installation and Utilisation

Rain Generator Documentation

Main Settings

Utilization : Allows you to modify general parameters such as rainfall, density, speed, material and distribution method.

​

Access : N panel (addon panel)

​

Notes : 

_The Accurate mode gives a more realistic behavior to the pluis, but is more resource-intensive for the computer, so for large scenes it's necessary to use the Large scene mode.

_ Rain generator takes into account the time line, remember to stop it so as not to slow down your computer for nothing.

Animation mode :  Rain generation type

Speed :  Raindrop speed

Material : Allows you to set a specific parameter. Each one can be individually hidden with the visibility button.

Droplets

Droplets

Effect : Set the size, shape and distance from which the droplets fall.

​

Access : N panel (addon panel)

​

Notes :  By selecting Droplets mode, the shape becomes more realistic but takes longer to calculate, so it's best to use it for small scenes.

Droplets Point mode Panel :

Altitude : Altitude from which the raindrops fall. Depending on the size of your scene, you will need to adjust this parameter.

Visibility : Display droplets in rendering

Random Length : Aleatory droplet size

Scale : Droplet size

Droplets Droplets mode Panel :

​

Splashes Panel :
