Why we like it

Earns its place for one-click, non-destructive rock generation driven entirely by Geometry Nodes, shipped with a procedural material and a permissive MIT license.

What is S4C Rock Generator (Blender Add-On)?

S4C Rock Generator from Shift4cube adds procedural rock creation to Blender, powered by Geometry Nodes. Click Add Rock and you get a rock without manual sculpting, ready to shape further through the add-on's controls.

You can start from a Cube, Icosphere, or UV Sphere base mesh, then adjust shape, scale, detail, roughness, noise, distortion, and more. Because everything runs through Geometry Nodes, the workflow stays non-destructive and every setting can be tweaked at any time. The add-on auto-assigns the included procedural rock material and applies Smart UV Project for texturing. Controls live in a clean panel in the 3D Viewport under the N-Panel, S4C Rock.

The package includes the add-on as a ready-to-install .zip, an assets.blend containing the Geometry Nodes setup and procedural material, plus documentation and a quick start guide. It runs on Blender 4.0 and up, works with Cycles and Eevee, and is released under the MIT license.

Frequently asked questions

Which Blender versions does S4C Rock Generator support?

S4C Rock Generator lists compatibility with Blender 4.0 and up, spanning versions 4.0 through 5.0. The add-on relies on Geometry Nodes, which is why a 4.0 or newer build is required. If you're running an older release, you'd need to update Blender before installing. The developer also notes that basic familiarity with modifiers and Geometry Nodes helps, since the rock's controls are driven through that system. Check the developer's page for the current version details before installing.

Does S4C Rock Generator work with Cycles and Eevee?

S4C Rock Generator works with both Cycles and Eevee, the two render engines listed for it. The add-on auto-assigns an included procedural rock material, so rocks arrive shaded and ready to render in either engine. It also applies Smart UV Project automatically, giving each rock a UV layout for texturing. Whichever engine you use, the generation stays non-destructive through Geometry Nodes, so you can keep adjusting the rock before your final render.

How do I install S4C Rock Generator?

S4C Rock Generator ships as a ready-to-install .zip file, which you add through Blender's add-on installer. The download also includes an assets.blend holding the Geometry Nodes setup and procedural material, along with documentation and a quick start guide to walk you through setup. Once installed, its controls appear in a clean panel in the 3D Viewport, reachable via the N-Panel under S4C Rock. From there you click Add Rock and adjust the sliders.

Is S4C Rock Generator free, and what license does it use?

S4C Rock Generator is listed as free in this catalog, and it's released under the MIT license, a permissive open-source license. Licensing terms can change, so check the developer's page for current details before you download. Your download includes the add-on .zip, the assets.blend with the Geometry Nodes setup and procedural material, plus documentation and a quick start guide, so you have everything needed to start generating rocks.
