Welcome to VerTree’s documentation!

VerTree is a Blender addon for all the environment artist out there. This addon enables the user to create complex trees quickly, whether it be for background or foreground. It is meant to give a basic or high quality tree mesh, depending on your needs. It can be used for quick drafting or almost complete asset creation.

A word from the developer.

This addon, like many, started as a personal project. In August 2022 when I became ultimately annoyed by some free Blender tree generation addons. It felt like the process of creating a tree was clumsy and time consuming. None of them had any connection to the real world so I neve knew if results were convincing. So I consumed copious amounts of forum posts, documentation and coffee to create VerTree. There are still lots of things to improve and expand on, the more I code the more ideas I have and I listed them in the Roadmap section. I won’t make this addon public on github because I see it as my own personal challenge, but if you have any ideas and are willing to share please please please contact me at VerTree.dev@gmail.com.
