- DO NOT REDISTRIBUTE, Link back to the original download page only.
- Give credit when sharing creations made with Squidnodes.
- Do not claim that Squidnodes belongs to, or was created by you.
The Squidnodes addon works a bit differently than other addons. This is to simplify installation, and to make updates to Blender easier to manage.
- Download the Squidnodes.blend file from our distribution page here: https://github.com/PastaOwO/Squidnodes
- Save the file to somewhere that you can access easily
- Either create a new blend file, or open an existing one
- Under the "File" dropdown menu, select "Append"
- Locate the Squidnodes.blend file
- A folder labelled "NodeTree" should be present. Click into this folder
- Select everything inside the folder and tick the "Fake User" box on the right hand side of the file dialog
- Click "Append"
- Import your model and set it up as you wish
- In the shader editor, search for "Squidnodes" in the "Add" dropdown menu
- If all goes well, you should see the addon's shaders right there!
