ScatterFlow - Set Dressing Tools for Maya  

What does it do:
ScatterFlow V1.0 Full Documentation (Learn it all with gifs here)
Intuitively dress your scenes by clicking and dragging to drop assets.
Apply randomisation to Rotation and Scale to speed up dressing.
Click and drag to interactively set the size and rotational angle of the asset with fine control in "Drop" mode.
Quickly layout a range of assets using the "Drag" mode.

aiStandin:
Dressing is represented using aiStandin nodes to allow for a super lightweight, responsive scene where assets are always up to date with the latest asset version on disk.
The standin node references a file on disk so you can start to dress scenes with the most fundamental version of a model and have it always remain up to date as newer versions of the asset are published over time without needing to actively replace assets.

Instancing:
Each asset shape only exists in the scene once. Every new asset added is automatically an instance of the existing one. This results in massive RAM savings and a much more responsive viewport when compared to using un-instanced shapes.

Other Key Features:
Includes a full asset publishing system that manages:

• Exporting Maya files
• Exporting Arnold Ass caches
• Version Control
• Animated Turnaround Thumbnail Rendering: Viewport or Arnold rendered.

Asset Library:
An asset library with animated turnaround previews of assets.
The library is a hub for asset based actions such as initiating re-capture of thumbnails, adding assets to scene, opening assets, and replacing assets in scene.

Compatibility:
Maya 2024, Maya 2025
Arnold - Mtoa
Python 3

Installation:
Drag and drop the "Install.py" into your Maya session viewport.
