SiScatter 2.0
A scattering plugin from Julien Carmagnac, author of »Instance On Curve«.
SiScatter offers a high level of control over the scatter placement:
This scatter tool distributes particles based on the »emTool _ Equal Distribution on Surface« Compound from Eric Mootz (thank you Eric !). I tweak this compound to work together with »Delete Particles Near to Boundaries Edges«, »remove closest geometry« and »remove inside filter« compounds.
This tool build an ICE Tree and create a custom property under the point cloud object to tweak all ICE parameters. So you can edit entirely your scattering without open your ICE Tree. List of avalaible modifiers: color by gradient color by shape id color by texture map filter by boundary edge filter by closest geo filter by fractal filter by random [..]

Re: SiScatter
Hi Leo !
From what I know, PPG layout are not saved with the recording of the scene.
That's why you can use the menu command : "ICE -> Create -> (siScatter categorie) Edit/Regenerate Property" with your property or point cloud selected.
Tell me if that work on 2015.
Sorry to answer you in English, but I do not want to let others in the dark ;) .
A plus !

Re: SiScatter
Hello,
I updated first post with v1.3 :
- Correct a bug that reset density/number parameters when reopening the PPG property.
Sorry for the trouble and thank you Léo for your report !
Friendly.

Re: SiScatter
Thanks so much for updating your tool so quickly, Julien! The new camera filter seems to be working really well!
Re: SiScatter
Thanks. Great tool!
For some crazy reason I don't get the new camera filter. Downloaded from the link on the first page. How can I check the version nr?

Re: SiScatter
Ah... I don't think Julien updated the download link in this thread. The version I have I got straight from him for testing the camera filter. I'm sure he'll update the download but if not I'll share the version I have.
Re: SiScatter
You can look on your plug-in manager :
On the "Tree" tab -> "siScatter (Addon)" -> "Plug-ins" -> "siScatter" : right click -> "Properties..."
You may find "major version" : 1 and "minor version" 4.
I will also check my download link.

Re: SiScatter
You're right, the link was not updated. I just (re)update it.
Now you should have the right version.
Let me now and thank you.

Re: SiScatter
Hi Julien,
I'm getting memory leak when loading a scene with siscatter. Is this a known bug?
I don't have the scene info infront of me now but rendering with Arnold and SI 2014 SP2 builds up render time quickly.
I will see if I can narrow it down and get back to you.
