Wall creator is a plugin that allows you to resize and place walls between a group of ‘posts’ with ease!
To use Wall Creator simply place a group of parts (posts) in the shape you’d like to make your wall, select them [CTRL + Click] in the order you’d like to build the wall in.
If you have no specific order in mind, group the posts in a model and select only the model. The plugin will use the clockwise point sorting algorithm to do the rest!
Example posts:
Once everything is selected, set you ‘Wall Size’ settings to whatever you’d like, and hit the Build button to finish!
If you’d also like your posts to align themselves to follow the contour of the wall, click on the Align Posts button with the walls still selected.
Changing the build mode though the dropdown will also allow you to build fences. Simply select the posts the same as before, select your fence segment count, resize your wall, and hit the Build button.
Toggling the close loop bool describes whether or not it will connect the start and the end posts with a wall or not, shown in the fence example above!
I suppose it’s quite similar, though the main difference is this allows the parts to be a variety of sizes, and fills multiple gaps at once. The GapFill plugin creates multiple pieces of geometry to fill in the gap between two parts and makes the transition between the two virtually seamless.
Definitely similar but not the same. I suggest watching the youtube video I posted for a better understanding.
Another key part of my plugin is the ability to automatically sort and build walls across posts without a specified order.
Yep that’s the gist of it! It also has the ability to rotate the posts to follow the contour of the wall.
It basically just automates a lot of manual labor. In the future I plan to make this plugin a lot more powerful though!
This post is mainly just made as a tutorial for the people who own the plugin since I learned you can (somewhat) post devforum links on plugin pages, and a lot of people didn’t understand the tutorial I used in the plugin.
bruh at first i was like:
“why on earth would I ever need ‘wall creator’?”
this is actually useful though. this is great. i love you (notgay). keep working hard g
Hi. The “Align Post” feature seems to be bugged out when only selecting two parts as it happens to send them to the shadow realm. I’m not joking either. When I press F to view their locations my screen literally turns black.
Unless this was intentional (doesn’t seem like it), please fix this as I would like to make one stray post look at another post!
Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention, and sorry for any inconvenience that may have caused.
I’ve just pushed out a fix! Please don’t be afraid to let me know if any other problems arise, and I’ll try to get to them as soon as possible
