Blender-Python-Procedural-Level-Generation

Collection of scripts for generating 3D levels (environments/dungeons) procedurally. Leverages Blender's Python API. Currently a work in progress.

Instructions to run

1. Open a new instance of the Blender program
2. Navigate to the scripting screen https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/interface/window_system/screens.html
3. Import the script via the Open button or click the New button and paste the contents of a script into the script editor
4. Click the Run Script button

For an introduction to Blender scripting with Python https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/advanced/scripting/introduction.html

Special notes about versioning

The scripts in 2.7 will not work in 2.8 but the scripts in 2.8 continue to work in 2.9+ If at some point in the future breaking API changes are introduced a new folder will be added for the scripts to be ported
