Real Snow
This add-on allows you to add snow on top of objects.
The main principle behind this addon is to add a particle system of metaballs on top of the selected object and transform it to mesh.
Activation
Open Blender and go to Preferences then the Add-ons tab.
Click Object then Real Snow to enable the script.
Usage
Open the Real Snow tab available in the N sidebar of the 3D Viewport.
Select objects you want to add snow on top.
Change the parameters and click on the „Add Snow“ button to generate the snow.
Bemerkung
The snow material use microdisplacement to achieve realistic result. You need to change the render engine to Cycles and Feature Set to experimental in order for microdisplacement to be working.
You can also add snow only on part of an object by selecting the faces in edit mode and activating the „Selected Faces“ toggle in the panel.
