Technical Recommendations

It is recommended to use graphics cards with more than 10 gigabytes of memory. If you have less video memory, simply set the texture size to 2048 or 1024 in the simplify section. At a resolution of 1024, the required video memory for rendering a large scene is 3.5 gigabytes.

Also set Transparent max bounces value to 20 minimum if you render in Cycles!

Before you buy

While creating the addon, compromises were made for the sake of optimizing the procedural effect. Therefore, do not expect ultra-detailed tree trunks with tessellation. The trees are not designed for macro photography but are created with a compromise for performance. They are best used for medium-distance shots (at least 40-60 cm from the camera).

Due to its procedural and heavy effects, playback performance is significantly impacted, achieving only 4-5 fps in the viewport. To address this, I have created an 'Optimizer Button' for animated shots, which duplicates and realizes the mesh of your biome. Using this function with large environments can cause Blender to crash (this is not due to errors in the addon code, but rather a feature of Blender's Python). Therefore, it is recommended to save your file before optimizing, or use a proxy or fast previewer and optimize only the specific areas you need. This can greatly improve fps—from 4-5 fps to a stable 30 fps.

As this biomes generators are fully procedural you can't indestructible export them into another software.

The full size of the addon is 13 GB. Instead of creating a multi-part zip, I decided to upload the full addon to a cloud drive for user convenience. Purchasing this addon gives you access to the package download link (you will find it in the files for download). Multi-part zip is also uploaded, if this variant is more comfortable for you.

Changelogs

• Update 1.1.1: Fixed issue with tropical beach forest painter (thanks to Bate for finding this problem!)
• Update 1.1: UI overhaul and quality of life improvements. Added an alternative import method—linking. This reduces file size by 95%, but has more performance impact than the append method. Don't forget to use the optimizer button on every biome if you are an animator! All downloadeble packages are updated, but if you already downloaded 1.0 version - download "Naturescapes Pro 1.1 update" zip file
