It’s difficult to overestimate how cracks affect the overall appearance of an object or a scene. Cracks can be found everywhere, from pavement stones to ancient ruins. Despite this, it is one of the most difficult things to model. Until now!
The Cracker add-on is a handy little tool for making cracks as easily as possible. Select an object, press Ctrl + w, adjust for the desired appearance, and apply. It’s really that simple. You can now create cracks at the speed of thought!
Features:
• Instant visual feedback – Any adjustments instantly appear on your model in realtime.
• Streamlined workflow – Hotkeys!
• Low poly or detailed, you decide – You can adjust the amount of details by mouse wheel.
• Ctrl/Cmd function – Want to chip off a piece? Hold the Ctrl (Cmd) button.
• Works from any view angle – Doesn’t have to be Top or Side view. The Cracker doesn’t care if the view is orthographic or perspective either.
• Makes the crack you want – Rotation, noise scale, width, move, bending, etc.
• Built-in randomizer – Crack will appear with random Rotation and Position around an object’s origin.
