**Download and Installtion**

Download the Blendpeaks.py file from this repository. Or get the zip file from the releases page.
https://github.com/oormicreations/Blendpeaks/releases

Alt link: https://oormi.in/software/blender/Blendpeaks.zip

Install from the Blender Menu > Edit > Preferences > Add-ons > Install. Pick the python file. Enable this addon.
You will find the UI in the 3D View window when you press N.

Some versions of Blender may not show the UI or addon. Try installing the python file directly after unzipping the zip.


**Usage**

Just click the **Create Peak** button!

**Divisions** define the resolution of the geometry.

**Randomize** sets up semi-random parameters for creation of a unique peak.

The following parameters can be adjusted anytime, before or after creation of the peak (Select the peak and change it).

**Height** Changes the height. Also goes in negative to create pits.

**Seed** Changes overall shape.

**Shape** Defines gross shape.

**Shape Details** Finer details.

**Ridges** Changes the sharp edges on the peak.

**Ridges Details** You can have more straight or random ridges.

**Snow** Adjust the amount of snow on the peak. It is angle dependent. Does on appear on steep slopes.

**Rock** Adjust the amount of grass/rock material on the peak.

**Reset Defaults** button will reset all parameters to default values. Else they remain stored in your blender file.

**Help | Source | Updates** brings you to this page on GitHub.


**Known Issues**

* If you have two peaks and you change the first, and select the second and try to change it, it gets all the parameters of first peak and the last setting is lost. This is because the other parameter remain in the UI, while you selected the second peak.
* Does not work in non-English versions yet.
* **Always save your stuff!**
