Balustrade Modular System LITE

Balustrade Modular System LITE Build complete balustrade systems directly in the Scene View - no manual prefab placement, no tedious alignment. The Balustrade Modular System is an Editor tool that lets you construct, extend, and modify modular balustrades through a guided, snap-based workflow. Just click, preview, and build. This is the free LITE version: the complete Editor tool plus a content subset - both visual variants (V1 & V2), 3 of the 12 baluster styles, 1 pillar top, and one finish in New and Worn condition. Try the entire workflow in your own project, then unlock everything in the full version. ✨ Key Features - Scene View Construction: Build balustrades entirely within the Scene View. Direction arrows guide your placement and a real-time ghost preview shows exactly what will be built before you commit. - Automatic Placement Validation: The ghost start pillar automatically detects invalid surfaces - slopes, obstacles, or objects that would prevent proper construction. Invalid placements are visually indicated before you even click. When no surface is detected, the pillar automatically snaps to Y0. - Continue Build Mode: Extend any existing balustrade from its end pillars. Select a pillar, pick a direction, and keep building - the system seamlessly connects new segments to your existing structure. - T-Junctions & Branching: Build branches from middle pillars (V1M) and corner pillars (V1C). The tool automatically replaces the pillar with the correct T-junction piece and lets you continue building in a new direction. - Corners & Curved Rails: 90° corners and curved rails are fully integrated into the building workflow. Inner and outer arcs are handled automatically depending on your build direction. - Close Loop: Connect the end of a balustrade back to an existing pillar to form a closed circuit. The system detects proximity, highlights the connection in green, and replaces pillars with the correct junction type on commit. - Inner/Outer Arc Swap: Click any curved rail to mirror it between inner and outer arc orientation. Neighbouring pillars are automatically replaced (M↔C) and re-oriented. Works with all pillar types and both V1 and V2 variants. - Variant Switching (V1 ↔ V2): Switch entire balustrades between two visual variants with a single click. Each variant comes with 1 New and 1 Worn texture set in this free sampler. V1 and V2 use different pillar sizes and rail lengths - the system recalculates all positions using topology-aware repositioning to keep everything aligned. Works reliably even when rail segments have been deleted. - Smart Selection & Deletion: Clicking a rail automatically co-selects its connected pillars for visual clarity. Shift-click to multi-select rails - pillars between them are highlighted automatically. Delete one or multiple rails in a single action; all affected pillars are repaired automatically. - Pillar Protection: Pillars cannot be accidentally deleted. The system intercepts delete commands on pillars to prevent broken balustrades. - Full Undo/Redo: Every action - including full Continue Build sessions - is grouped into a single undo step. Ctrl+Z reverts the entire operation, not individual pieces. - Slope Tolerance: A built-in 1° slope tolerance ensures balustrades are only placed on flat surfaces, maintaining architectural realism. - Performance-Friendly: The entire balustrade uses only 3 materials regardless of length or complexity. Combined with Unity's Static Batching, draw calls stay minimal even in large scenes. 🧱 Pillar Types The system includes five pillar types that are automatically managed during construction: - End Pillar (E) - Placed at the start and end of every balustrade segment - Middle Pillar (M) - Connects two rails in a straight line - T-Junction Pillar (T) - Connects three rails for branching layouts - Corner Pillar (C) - 90° connection between two rails - Corner 45° Pillar (C45) - 45° connection between two rails 🎯 Built for Balustrades Purpose-bu
