Hi guys,

This is awsome. I love the enhanced window setup of the update.
This is a printscreen of the setup in Archicad using the per triangle scatter.
It works great!

You can see the rendering of this setup in the Galery:

Phantom Scatter is now available!

Everyone in the BETA has been sent an e-mail. As stated in the e-mail, I am currently working on an experimental new feature that will add a lot of realism to certain scattered objects. Stay tuned. (currently at an early stage, details will be posted in this topic eventually)

Note that 1.0 is the same as BETA 5.1.

[Phantom107]

Upcoming feature in 1.1:

True 3D Perlin-based AREA-scatter functionality.

Simply enable "3D" on an AREA-scatter object and it will work. It's a bit more demanding so you can toggle it on/off for each AREA-scatter object as you see fit.
This is ideal for things like vegetation walls or other scatters that don't look so good on a regular (2D, plane-based) AREA-scatter.

Thanks man
