My favorite Arch-viz ADDONS| BLENDER FOR ARCHVIZ

in this video i'm going to show you my favorite add-ons to work with architectural visualization inside of blender and those add-ons are my favorites because they are helping me to get faster and to focus more in the artistic side of architectural visualization and less on the technic stuff where i'll need to think about samples i think about rendering about render time so on and so forth so if you don't know me my name is agus cesar i work with architectural visualization for about five years and i'm now working in this youtube channel to show how to use blender for architecture for architectural visualization so if you like this kind of content please i invite you to subscribe and click the notification bell so every time every time i post a new video you will know okay anyway without further ado let me show my favorite addons for architectural visualization inside of blender the number one is an addon that comes with blender and has a free and a paid version this addon is called arc pack you can find here in edit preference you can just type arc and you will find here some people like the arc mesh as well i'm not a fan i need you him the truth that i'm not a real fan of the zeddon i really like the arc pack and the reason for that is because i get a really interesting result fast as you can see these window frames here are really realistic they are really bad they have a lot of variation and i don't need to spend a lot of time with that this and i can just come here place my 3d cursor press shift a and add a window as fast as you can see and you can move those handles here here up and down and change the aspect of your of your window as you go okay for example i can turn on those manipulation stuffs and i can increase the size and the steps and everything else inside of blender this addon is really really handy and it also has a paid version so i invite you to click the link on the description this is not a paid link link in any way because i don't know how to get affiliation links from them but i know that the paid stuff is as good as the free stuff okay so arc pack is one of my favorites because make my work really really fast when it matters to add doors windows roofs and you anything related to architecture visualization as you can see okay so let's go to the next next add-on the next add-on that i really really like is another called photographer this addon is amazing for me because as you can see this is a rendering a handle that i me using here in my computer and i can go in this add-on and change a lot of stuff as i'm going so i don't need to think that like a technician that knows the deep knowledge about blender i just need to know how cameras work in the real world what is the necessary thing to work with architecturalization you need to work like a photogra photographer that has the power of god basically that so i can change each false color and i can change the exposure of my scene as i'm trying to get the best result possible i also can update the update the light threshold to the best for my screen and i can adjust it as i'm going without too much trouble okay so if i turn off the false color you can see i changed the look of the scene entirely but just by change the exposure values as you can see and i can also change use white balancing and i can change the resolution for each individual hindering our camera as you can see which is really really great to work with sometimes blender don't have that option to to have different different configurations for different cameras and this addon brings me this possibility but the best part of this adam is really really the fact that his which has his own field here in the corner where you can change the stuff for example you have your camera list and you can change the type of your camera as you are just working in in blender you can change the focus and everything else easily thinking more in the artistic side and less in the technician side where you need to navigate through a lot of stuff here on the properties panel so photographer addon is just amazing link on the description anyway let's go to the next one the next add-on that i not i just can't live without it should develop architecture visualization scene is the scatter add-on and here in the scene you are just not seeing how this addon works because it's for now turn it off but if i come here in the side of my screen and turn on the visibility for all the grass in my scene as you can see i have a lot of grass going on here in this house the final result for this kind of hindering is something like that so first thing first credit is for this imaging this image was made by two different artix i just entered in this image to get to give the final composition and the final lightning and details but the guys who made it from scratch were luan 3dr luan 3dr and gabriel those the link for the the instagram instagram of those guys are in the description below so all the credits for them they are created great artists i hired them to develop this project for a real client i think we made a really really nice job so anyway as you can see the final result is amazing this grass is just is stunning and as you can see the grass here looks amazing so far and you can also for sure use things like your camera today to tell you blender where the rest will be so let me show it in a scene a clear scene where i can add a plane add some subdivisions on this plane and just come here to the scatter addon you can select your plane come to the biomes manager and you can just click and select address here on the corner as you can see so let me select a interesting glass for example let's come to something different like those brushes here okay it's added as you can see it uh apply to some objects as wireframes to make your viewport easier to use more responsive and as you can see there is a lot of stuff here and if you come to let me just start off the handle mode in this scene here because it's taking a lot of memory let me turn off the hindered view here and as you can see if you come to the android mode here you'll see that the quality is just stunning it's just amazing you can add grabs in your screen your scene easy easy just clicking and adding and you have a great result instantaneously so this is why i love this add-on and most of the things that i would like to have for an architecture visualization project for example sometimes i wanted to have the grass constrained to the through an area for example i added a camera here and i want no i wanted to have the grass only where the camera is to make my scene lighter so what i'm gonna do i can just come here to the mask section create a new mask actually i need to do that for all things selected as you can see create a new mask clipping based on camera so i can just come to the to those properties and click here and add influence to selected objects and as you can see the grass will be constrained only where the camera is looking for also you have in those this max section a distant cooling operation that you can add to your scene and you can select how long your grass will be in your scene for example here i put 10 meters i can put it in 5 meters and as you can see it will it will update instantaneously in front of your screen you can increase it on going to see where you really need grass in your scene and as you can see i used that here around my house to make sure that the grass is appear only where they come the camera sees okay so as you can see those two cameras get those those really nice results and this is vital for architecture visualization you have to have at least something that's good enough to fool the eyes of the viewer something like that and this addon is just amazing and going on to the next add-on i would like to show the add-on that i used to make those trees and those brushes here and the add-on that i used to make those trees and brushes as you can see is the add-on call let me show you botanic add-on this add-on is just fantastic just like that it's perfect for actual visualization i need to tell you the truth the quality is great but it's not as stunning as i would like to to have something but it's good enough for most part of the work that i'm developing here so as you can see this hand ring is looking great the trees are looking great i would like to have better trees in this case but this add-on was good enough for the project and as you can see you can just click and add trees easily on your scene and the quality is as i told you good enough for most of those cases where you are working with architectural visualization and the best part of this add-on is that it comes with an option to change the way the leaves look according to the station of the ear for example here i have the unturned option where i can change the colors according to the accordion to the time so here as you can see i have the original color of the tree this greenish color and you can crease the anton leaves around the tree to make it look even better even more related to this thing for example here as you can see i used this i used this option to make the trees a little a little bit more viable so they are a little bit different different from each other which makes my scene pop up a little bit more okay this is the botanic add-on all the links are in the description and the final add-on that i would like to show you is the add-on that i used to add this car here on the scene because real all the scenes that you that you will work in architectural visualization in exteriors actually you will need to add things like cars like plot like not fences but like signals and things like that and the transportation add-on has it for us let me show you here the transportation add-on as you can see has a lot of stuff going on for us for example there are there is a lot of urban cars that you can just click and add your vehicle to your scene easily and the best part of this add-on is all the models actually most of the models i don't know if all there are but more most of the objects are higged and good to go and this is amazing because the result is great in navy and cyclos so the result is all basically the same on navy and on cycles it's amazing how great this this car looks and the fact that it has the higgit stuff so for example let me show you i can just click the car click here to make vegetable perfect and i can just come here to the mode change to pause mode and i can animate this car as i'm going and this is amazing for architecture visualization because you don't need to care about the velocity of the wheels for example the velocity of the wheels will be correct according to the movement that you make with your key frames which is perfect you shouldn't you don't need to care about technical stuffs you just need to to take care about the artistic stuff and for me this is amazing anyway this is the video for today thanks for watching if you wanted to have to get one of those add-ons all the links are in the description description below thanks for watching and i'll see you in our next video bye
