Title: Some ideas for Chaos Scatter
Post by: Cinemike on 2022-04-26, 21:09:58

Here are some suggestion for the Chaos Scatter tool:
- An option to influence which clones are being created where depending on a grayscale map.

- You can set a "frequency" for the clones in "object / instanced children". It would be nice if the setup field worked like a standard C4D input field and we could also easily reset the value to 1.

- Would it be possible to visualise the camera clipping distance somehow?

- Surface Scattering: Add a min/max height to make it possible to limit the growth - think water level of a lake or growth limit on a mountain.

+1000 on this...  it's a must-have

the way this works currently seems fine...  not sure what's missing, besides resetting to default=1 (doesn't seem that crucial, tbh)...

Arrows!
Especially since you can enter far bigger numbers manually than you can reach with the field automatically ATM. Arrows would allow that.
Plus: the arrows would allow me to reset the value to a base value.
And: it would look much more like "inside C4D" ;)

Hi, maybe it was mentioned before, a general ON/OFF button for all CS objects in the file to reduce editor weight and calculation time while switching between cameras(camera clipping).
Thanks, Alban

Sounds like a job for the Corona lister ;)
