Stonework - A Blender add-on to create stone walls

blenderaddons-ng

There are other options out there, (including my own, probably broken add-on) to create stone walls, but I wanted to try our how easy it would be to create a new add-on that would fit the development and testing framework I am creating, so I created this mesh generator that creates a wall of bricks or stones, with several options to randomize and tweak it.

It creates a clean mesh, although currently it does not add uv-coordinates.

It can be downloaded directly from here, or you might want to have a look at the repository and see what it is about.

Description

The add-on  provides an operator that creates a customization "stonework" wall mesh made up of rows of randomly sized rectangular stones separated by configurable gaps. The main features and functionality are:

• Adds a new mesh object to the scene representing a wall made of stones.
• Customizable wall dimensions: You can set the total width and height of the wall.
• Configurable stone size: Control the minimum and maximum width of stones, the height of each row, and the width of the first stone in each row.
• Randomization: Stones in each row have random widths (within user-specified limits), and you can set a random seed to get a different placement of the stones.
• Gaps between stones: You can specify the width and depth of the gaps between stones, making the wall look more realistic.
• Half-stone probability: Optionally, some stones can be half-width for a more natural, irregular pattern.
• Mesh construction: The add-on ensures all faces are connected, merging vertices where stones meet and splitting faces where a vertex lies on another face’s edge.
• Extrusion: Stones are extruded along the Z-axis by the gap depth, giving the wall a 3D appearance.
• User interface: The operator appears in the "Add" menu in the 3D Viewport, under the name "Stonework Wall".

This add-on is useful for quickly generating stylized or realistic stone or brick wall meshes for architectural visualization, games, or other 3D projects.
