Why we like it

Simple Fire Scatter earns a place in the Superhive library for its straightforward, panel-driven approach to scattering fire onto objects with preset flames and a handful of adjustable properties.

What is Simple Fire Scatter?

Simple Fire Scatter adds fire to objects in Blender through a dedicated panel in the 3D View sidebar. Select an object in the viewport, open the Fire Scatter tab, and click one of the Flame buttons (Flame 1, Flame 2, and so on) to apply a fire effect to the selected surface.

Each flame can be fine-tuned using properties such as Density, Randomness, and Rotation, so you can adjust the appearance without leaving the panel. A Start/Stop Animation control drives the flames, letting you begin or halt the animation directly from the same interface.

Built on geometry nodes and distributed as a Blender add-on under the GPL license, Simple Fire Scatter covers Blender versions 3.0 through 5.0. It focuses on a click-driven workflow: choose an object, choose a flame, optionally customize, then animate. The add-on appears in the Superhive library at popularity rank 3113 and has recorded a small number of sales.

Frequently asked questions

Which Blender versions does Simple Fire Scatter support?

Simple Fire Scatter lists compatibility with Blender versions 3.0 through 5.0. It is distributed as a Blender add-on and is noted as Blender Extension compatible. Because it uses geometry nodes, you'll want a Blender build within that supported range for the flame presets and their properties to work as intended. If you're running a version outside 3.0 to 5.0, check the developer's page for the latest compatibility details before installing.

How do I apply fire to an object with Simple Fire Scatter?

Simple Fire Scatter works from the 3D View sidebar. First, click the object you want to add fire to in the 3D viewport. Open the Fire Scatter tab in the sidebar, then click one of the Flame buttons, such as Flame 1 or Flame 2, to apply a fire effect to the selected object. You can optionally adjust Density, Randomness, and Rotation, then press Start/Stop Animation to run the flames. Documentation with these steps is included.

Is Simple Fire Scatter free, and what license does it use?

Simple Fire Scatter is listed as free in this catalog, and it is distributed under the GPL license as a Blender add-on. For current licensing terms and any purchasing details, visit the developer's page from Mamba CG. Because licensing and availability can change over time, confirming directly with the creator is the safest way to know exactly what you're getting before you download and install the add-on.
