With just a single click from the N-Panel, Blend Craft activates all essential passes—such as Color, AO, Light, Transmission, Mist, and more—setting up a dynamic compositing system instantly!

No more tedious node setups; Blend Craft handles everything for you, letting you dive straight into the artistic process.

What Makes Blend Craft Special?

· Effortless Setup: In just one click, the addon automatically enables key render passes and prepares the compositor with all the necessary layers. Perfect for anyone new to Blender or professionals looking to speed up their workflow.

· Complete Background Control: Manage your background settings effortlessly directly from the N-Panel. Choose between Blender’s default background, an alpha channel, or even import your own custom image. Additionally, with adjustable size, positioning, and darkness controls, you can fine-tune your background images without having to touch any nodes.

· Custom Image Integration: Blend Craft allows you to import and manipulate custom images with full control over size, positioning, and opacity. Whether you're working with alpha layers or need to place a background image precisely, it’s all easily adjustable directly from the N-Panel.

Versatility at Your Fingertips

The compositing options in Blend Craft are extensive, giving you full control over every major compositing pass. Let’s break them down, following the order of the provided images:

Mist Pass: Add depth to your scenes with the Mist Pass, perfect for atmospheric rendering. You can adjust mist color, depth, and intensity directly from the N-Panel, creating realistic distance-based effects such as fading or haze to bring more dimension to your environments.

Colour: Easily tweak and correct colour tones to achieve the perfect look for your renders. The color adjustments can range from fine-tuning the hue and saturation to controlling brightness and contrast, ensuring your scenes have the exact color balance you need.

Gloss: Manage reflections and highlights in your scenes. The Gloss Pass lets you enhance or tone down the shine on reflective surfaces, allowing for precise control over the glossiness of materials and bringing out fine textures in metals, glass, or polished surfaces.

Transmission: Control transparency, refraction, and how light travels through objects such as glass, liquids, or any translucent surfaces. Adjust the level of light transmission, as well as surface roughness, directly from the N-Panel to achieve realistic light interaction through materials.

Volume: Adjust fog, smoke, and other volumetric effects with ease. This pass is essential for enhancing the atmosphere of your scenes, allowing you to control the density, color, and distribution of volume elements like clouds, mist, or smoke.

Light Management: Instantly modify light levels with precision using the Light Pass. Whether you want to tweak brightness, glare, bloom, or even increase the light range in your scenes, Blend Craft’s N-Panel offers full control. This ensures your lighting is perfectly balanced for the mood you want to achieve.

Environment: Control the brightness, tone, and overall mood of your scene’s environment. You can adjust the environment lighting to match your desired look, ensuring precision in background lighting adjustments, whether it's for daylight, sunset, or night scenes.

Ambient Occlusion (AO): Enhance shadows and add depth to surfaces where objects come into close contact. With the AO Pass, you can refine the realism of your renders by controlling how surfaces interact with each other, creating more detailed and nuanced shadows and surface interactions.

Each of these features comes with fully customizable sliders and parameters directly accessible from the N-Panel, so you won’t have to touch a single node. This streamlined control allows you to stay focused on the creative aspects of your work rather than being bogged down by technical details.

And That’s Not All Folks!

Within Blend Craft, you'll also find our Effects Panel, which is packed with tools designed to make your renders pop. Here’s what you can look forward to:

Diamond Sharpen
- Add sharpness and clarity to your image with the Diamond Sharpen feature. This effect ensures crisp, detailed visuals by boosting contrast along edges, making intricate details stand out.
Box Sharpen
- Similar to Diamond Sharpen, but with a broader application, Box Sharpen enhances the overall sharpness of your scene. Perfect for environments that need a general sharpen across a large surface area without focusing on fine details.
Soften
- Sometimes a little softness goes a long way, and this effect lets you smooth out areas where you need a gentler look. It’s perfect for blending transitions or adding subtle blur for a more natural feel.
Anti-Aliasing
- Tired of jagged edges? The Anti-Aliasing tool smooths out pixelated lines and makes your render appear more polished. Ideal for fine-tuning renders that involve complex geometry.
Color Balance
- Fine-tune the color composition of your render with this Color Balance tool. Whether you need warmer tones or cooler highlights, you can easily adjust the lift, gamma, and gain for each color channel.
RGB Curves
- RGB Curves is a versatile tool for those who want to adjust the overall tonal contrast of their render. Modify the brightness, shadows, and highlights of individual color channels with precision.
Hue Correct
- Correct or enhance specific colors in your scene by tweaking the hue, saturation, and value. This effect gives you control over precise color alterations without affecting the whole image.
Brightness/Contrast
- Control the light levels of your scene with Brightness/Contrast. Whether you need a dramatic high-contrast look or a softer, more diffused light, this tool provides the flexibility to achieve it.
Denoise
- Denoise removes unwanted noise from your render, delivering clean, smooth results. This is particularly useful for scenes rendered with fewer samples or those involving heavy lighting effects.
