This plugin is clearly a premium plugin designed for people doing in-depth work. There’s more documentation for this plugin than most. In addition, you get a multiple email on-boarding process that give you some more information about functionality. When you use this plugin, you’re immediately given a chance to download the user manual.
However, whenever I look at the value of SketchUp plus plugins like this one, it’s still FAR less than you’d pay for a license to a program like 3DS Max that you’d use to work with objects like this. This is definitely a premium plugin, and it’s on the spendier end of SketchUp plugins. This plugin is a complete game changer for anyone that creates exterior renderings, especially designers that work with landscapes, etc.
There is just about any function you could want in a scattering plugin included. It’s a complete game changer for creating renderings and presentations. It’s almost impossible to get into everything this plugin does in a short plugin review, but to sum up, this is a premium plugin with premium features. This means instead of adding thousands of faces and lines to your model (and slowing it down), you can keep modeling in SketchUp and send your model directly to a rendering program to render this geometry without slowing your model down. Basically, this means that if you select “Render Only” as one of your options, when Skatter adds objects to your model, they will only show up when you render your model in a rendering software. One of the really nice functions of Skatter is the render only function. It also comes with a content library of prebuilt items, like grass or gravel, to enable you to quickly get started modeling. You can use areas to scatter objects along an area you define on your object. It gives you the ability to control how objects are scattered, including things like randomization, translation, scale, and mirroring. There are a lot of functions to this plugin – I’ll just give you a high level overview of some of the functionality.īasically, what this tool does is allow you to take an object and scatter it across a line, a face, a group, etc.
