Moreover, the add-on enables you to input various building elements, such as doors, windows, panels, and more, which will be procedurally distributed across a simple mesh, resulting in a complex and detailed building.
The new version of the generator introduces compatibility with Blender 4.0 a new preset for creating Tibetan monasteries, and tons of new features and improvements, including Auto-UV unwrapping and scale, a reworked Roof system, more Deform options, a brand-new interior system, and more.
