Just released "Debris Generator", a plug-in to quickly clone and scatter items (Props) randomly around your scene.  You select the number of clones and adjust ranges for Movement, Rotation, & Scale for the clones, as well any Color Variations. Cloned props (with physics applied) can also be 'dropped' via gravity onto physics-enabled objects (infinite plane, terrain, etc.) for more natural dispersal.  More info here:

I notice that the plugin requires iClone 7.9!!! Do you know just when this version will be available? :Whistling:

Looks good!
but maybe there should be some animation video of this, don't you think?
good question  wires

Thank you....looks like a very useful plug-in.  I sure wish we could do this with SpeedTrees.....in the vary color feature mainly.

All, thanks for the input.

@wires -- This was just brain freeze.  When I entered the info into the Marketplace form, 7.9 was the default choice.  Unfortunately, I am waiting for 7.9 like the rest of us.  Also, I assume it works on previous Python-enabled versions of iClone, but I don't have those down-revs installed to check, so I played it safe and chose the latest (well, later than the latest)...

@ ATOOM -- I will try to add a "tutorial" (probably using physics w/terrain) when I have some more time.

Hi,
I just added a Debris Generator tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5r3Q7pE8SE&list=PL_nBoV24p_ZNmGlW4_qXtlwbRKVXxuo-r&index=3

Very cool little plugin and the tutorial shows the usefulness.  Would be cool if it could read the z value of the terrain to embed within a variable height terrain (similar to the sticks sticking out of the flat one).

I like that idea a lot. Maybe you can use the snap to terrain value to set that.
It is incredibly fun already too! :)

It’s a great thing, it saves a lot of time, though you still have to correct it, because, as a person, a machine cannot yet be creative
