Install Procedural Wetness ​

The recommended installation uses Blender's extension system. Blender can then find add-on updates from the same repository.

Requirements ​

  • Blender 5.2 or newer
  • A mesh object for the wet surface
  • An active material on that mesh if you want wet-film shading

Water geometry can still be generated when the mesh has no material.

Install from the extension repository ​

  1. Open Edit > Preferences > Get Extensions.

  2. Open the repository settings and add a remote repository.

  3. Enter this URL:

    text
    https://blender.buruthebull.com/index.json
  4. Refresh the repository list.

  5. Search for Procedural Wetness and choose Install.

  6. Enable the extension if Blender does not enable it automatically.

Verify the installation ​

  1. Return to the 3D Viewport.
  2. Select a mesh in Object Mode.
  3. Press N to open the Sidebar.
  4. Look for the Wetness tab.

If the tab is present, continue with Create your first wet surface.

Install a downloaded ZIP ​

  1. Keep the ZIP intact; do not extract it.
  2. Open Edit > Preferences > Get Extensions.
  3. Open the extensions menu and choose Install from Disk.
  4. Select the Procedural Wetness ZIP and confirm the installation.

Update or remove the add-on ​

Manage Procedural Wetness from Preferences > Get Extensions:

  • Choose Check for Updates to install a newer repository version.
  • Disable the extension to hide its UI without deleting it.
  • Uninstall the extension to remove its files.

Disabling or uninstalling does not delete water already saved in a .blend.
