Structure Synth is a tool for generating 3D structures by specifying a design grammar (something akin to L-systems: a script with rewriting rules). Using simple rule sets, you can create very complex objects which looks like futuristic buildings, organic structures or abstract sculptures. It features a flexible template based export system for integration with third-party renderers. I believe this capability combined with SunFlow stunning renderings contributed a lot to its fame.

Of course, I could not resist writing a similar export template for XRT. It exports Structure Synth camera settings and shades the geometry with an ambient occlusion shader. To ease the process, I have added a Python binding for XRT LookAt API call bumping XRT version to 1.0.1.

This new release along with the exporter, the shader and the updated documentation is available in the Downloads section.

A new section of the gallery dedicated to Structure Synth is now available here.
