A tool that allows you to clone an object across all the vertices/volume/etc of another object
Kind of like this
It’s one of the things I loved about cinema 4d
I’m wondering if there is something like it in blender
Not sure, but looks just like this: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.4/Manual/Modeling/Objects/Duplication/DupliVerts
The tool in the video you posted appears to have the same properties as the array modifier. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ti-bytjWF8
Also, pressing shift-D will create a single duplicate, and pressing alt-D will create a linked duplicate. Modifying a linked object will modify all objects linked to it. http://www.blender.org/manual/modeling/objects/duplication/introduction.html
it will do I guess.
Glad to help!
Keep in mind tough, that these addons are just works in progress and many things change constantly, so don’t expect a fully robust system as C4D. It is still pretty cool what can be achieved right now
