T3D GN Presets

A Versatile Collection of Useful node groups for Geometry Nodes - Blender 4.2 LTS

T3D GN Presets (v1.5.1)

💡 Introduction

  • T3D GN Presets is a versatile collection of useful node groups for Geometry Nodes.
  • This is an essential component of an artist’s toolkit, containing node groups for deformers, fields, UV, utilities, and much more for free!
  • It allows users to combine multiple nodes with endless possibilities in non-destructive workflows with existing Blender tools.

🪄 Release Notes

  • T3D-GN-Presets (v1.5.1) for Blender 4.2 LTS is a corrective release primarily made to enhance user experience with nodes and minor changes.
  • For Blender 4.1 & below, check out previous releases here

🎆 New Nodes, Features & Changes

New Nodes

  • Vertex of Edge outputs the index of the vertex that a edge is attached to. (141cbff)

Features & Changes

  • Extend Curve now extends endpoints of curves along the tangent without extrusion. Supports multiple curves with individual endpoints extension.(cf3bd9c)
  • Center Elements supports menu for Bound Center and Element Center.(587f9a4)
  • Set Geometry Size supports menu for Proportional and Fit. Proportional is set by default; geometry size is determined by the maximum bounding box size scaled to the required size. Fit tries to scale geometry to fit into the required size.(ec71d44)
  • Point Honeycomb Centers to Origin ignoring offsets. (77278e8)
  • Replaced deprecated nodes with suitable Rotation nodes.

🚨 Deprecated Features

  • Instances are no longer internally supported. Realize Instances must be explicitly used in case of Instances. This change is made to support Depth in Realize Instances.
  • Mesh can no longer be converted to Fields, depreciated Mesh To Field
  • UV nodes requires mandatory UV input. Accessing Default UVMap attribute is no longer supported.
  • Vertex Slide is deprecated due to its instability and unsuitable use cases.

Note

Nodes with geometry input only support Mesh, Curves, Point Clouds

🪛 Compatibility

  • Make sure to have a supported Blender version and the corresponding addon version.
  • Nodes with Menu, Rotation and Matrix sockets are not compatible with Blender versions 4.1 and below.
  • Changes in newer addon versions are not retained for files migrated from older versions to newer versions, as nodes are only appended, not linked.
  • In case of any missing data blocks, raise an issue here
