Hey everyone! 👋 There’s some important info you should know! 🔥 At 4:05 ➡ Since Blender 4.2 and Geo-Scatter 5.5, you can now simply drag and drop your plugin.zip into Blender to install it. 🎉 The install button still exists-it’s just hidden under a little arrow button now! ⬇ More questions ❓Join the discord discord.gg/bUQNnKTU
Super helpful to the current project that I'm doing and as I'm still a beginner its good to know there's a free option out there! Thank you for your tutorial, really helped me heaps!!
Hello, I am having trouble adding a plug in.Asset library is connected but I do not find a zip file selected in your video to install in add ons menu even when I tried selecting multiple files from the downloads it doesn't come up as geo scatter on my add ons menu, how do I fix this?
Thanks a lot, I have a question, I downloaded the free plant library you provided both in gumroad and blender market but the file "presets.scatpack" is missing and I'm still trying to find it. Do you know where to get it?
the Biome Reader addon (the free one) refuses to work without the Geo Scatter (the paid one) 6:38 when i try to add a biome it just says that GeoScatter is missing in my addons, how can i make it work with the BiomeReader, i doubt the addon exists for free only to later on tell us that it wont work unless we buy the premium one first
i downloaded plant library and such.. got the .blend file that opens and you can see plants.. then for some reason.. no matter how i try to link it.. through preferences to a new file.. the new file never shows the assets in the asset library. (but in the preferences window it shows it is installed as an asset library)
I can't seem to find the way to link the blend file , I keep getting the popup that its missing whilst I've copied into multiple directory's. Any ideas?
Hi! I installed the Plant library and the Biome reader addon yesterday. When I open a biome, everything is imported one after the other but not displayed. I linked the biomes and I can see them in the asset browser too. If I open the .blend file where the assets are stored and open a biome there, everything is imported and placed on the object I selected at the beginning. Is there any solution?
Add the path of the folder that contains the blend file into the scatter file paths (Not in the usual file paths of Blender, you have to enter in the addon on preferences).
Maybe this is a little late but i had the same problem, just double check the path that blender has for the folder, for some reason mine had an extra C:\ and a random underscore at the end. Good luck!
Hello, the video is excellent, but I have a question, do I have to buy the geo scatter? Because I have GScatter installed. What difference is there between these two? thank you so much.
I was looking at buying Geo-Scatter, but wanted to test out the free Biome Reader version, and it's not working. I have the plugin installed. The Biome reader is showing the pictures of the various packs, but when I click on a specific pack, it comes up with "missing file". Glad I didn’t drop $100 for something that doesn't work.
@@ccb4911 is it not their responsibility to update their videos? "how to install geo-scatter in blender 4.2" this would be a great title for a video tutorial. instead, here i am trying to decipher and already somewhat tedious install process under the best of conditions. having said all this, this is a great addon and worth the money i paid and the hassle.
Is it possible to animate the plants using this add-on? I am attempting to incorporate wind and turbulence into a scene, but it does not seem to be working. Could you suggest a way to achieve this effect?
Edit : ok you answer the question. So I'll have to buy Geoscatter then other add-ons. Big turn off for me, I'll stick with Botaniq which is already fully stacked, thanks! OP : I already use Botaniq and I'd like to switch to Geoscatter. But it's unclear what I'll be able to do with it straight out of th ebox. Is Geoscatter only a Python script and then I'll have to but some expansive packs if I want to create some deserts or other biomes, or it comes with implemented biomes and the paid ones are just third party add-on? Thanks!
Hello BD3D, Does ScatterPro biome come with GeoScatter or do you get that biome from the marketplace? and does GeoScatter have any default biomes pre-installed? Thanks
hey sir, i would love to use this addon, but i didnt recieve any eMail to end the registration step, would be cool if you can help on this, thanks for this amazing addon ! absolut blow my mind . ciao
I installed Blender 3.6 to use it, because Biome Reader wasn't still updated for newer versions. When I try to scatter a plane using a biome, it loads in but nothing appears on the plane. What am I doing wrong? I followed every step, the plane is selected, biome in on the Systems list but there is no grass anywhere...
I'm a little confused. I am a pro user, I bought the addon on BlendeMarket. So what should I do now? Should I uninstall the addon and install this new one or just include these new libraries? Is there any difference at all between the pro version and the free version?
Of Hello VRH, "Biome-Reader" is for newbies, and "Geo-Scatter" is for pros. 😉 "Plant-Library" is the newest version of our old library, you can install the new library if you'd like. And, in case you missed it, we rebranded our plugin from "Scatter5" to "Geo-Scatter" 5 months ago, same plugin, just a fancy new name🙂 Cheers Dorian
Great job, I'm just trying the free version and I don't know why all the grasses I put on the plane are really huge. Can it be adjusted somewhere in the settings?
im working on a massive scene and after i added what i needed it crashes on render, now i have no idea how to delete correctly the bushes since even when i delete EVERYTHING in view port it still somehow take 6 or 7 gigs of ram!!! i need help!!!
hi! i got the addon from blender market but there is no .py or .zip file, the asset library is working but i cant find the actual addon can you help me?
Hello, I couldn't able to install . stackpack if I try to install, it open another folder it has two another folder Name: _biomes_ and _possessions_ . Please anyone let me know how to solve this issue . Thank you !
Hey I just bought a new computer (MacBook Pro just so you know I'm on MacOS), tried to download my Geo Scatter add-on I had on my previous machine, but it seems like it does not work, I don't have any biomes/assets, help me ! Oh and update : I've downloaded the "Plant library" looks great but last time I had all seasons, now there is just autumn ?
as explained in the video, the assets aren't shipped with the products, you can get some packs in www.geoscatter.com/biomes, and install the assets in your blender asset browser, and the biomes scatpack in your plugin Geo-Scatter preferences
Hi, this tutorial is very useful for me who is a beginner. I've downloaded Biome Reader but why don't the assets of my trees and forests appear? Is there anything i missed?
Hey, no matter how many times i download the zipped file.. its broken and wont unzip and i tried it on more than 1 computer.. can anyone upload a google drive link with the unzipped file please ? thank you
The plants are too big when dragged from the asset library. I have to scale them down to .1,.1,.1 for each item I add. Is there a global way to set the size?
@@bd3d Its a brand new scene. How is the scene scale wrong? I created an ant landscape terrain, at 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 scale. The plants should be smaller than that.
silly question , but when i scatter a biomes or object on a plane ,i want to duplicate it with shift d ,however the duplicate plane loose the scattering and is blank , how do you fix that please :)
I suspect this is all a scam to collet email data. So many having the same issue and there is no response from the seller. I was seriously going to get Geo-Scatter, but now I think not. This is ridiculous.
blender and its plug in are making things difficult.. one should have directly install it and have an option of add on library on side scroll bar as modifiers are

The basic plant library is free
Hello BD3D, Does ScatterPro biome come with GeoScatter or do you get that biome from the marketplace? and does GeoScatter have any default biomes pre-installed? Thanks
ScatterPro does not exists anymore, Geo-Scatter is a scattering tool it does not contains any assets
Does anyone know how to not let the plants/grass overpass the limits of the face?
Tha Archive 'Geo-Scatter_5.3.2_for_b3d_3.3+(individual).zip' not exist in download link.
