I am missing some info (like X Y Z vertices and other rotation infos) in some of my geometry nodes. I am using Blender 2.93.3 and my nodes addons are activated.

Here are 2 screens of what I have and what I should have.

this is what I have, and in my Point instance I should have more info like "rotation" and "scale" this is what I should have

  • $\begingroup$ you can always "read" positions with the position node, and "write" with set position node. Don't expect that every node has x,y,z values as inputs/outputs. And these inputs/outputs have nothing to do with any add-on. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Only that the Point Instance node in Mel's screenshot means that it's an older version of Geometry Nodes and there are no Position or Set Position nodes. $\endgroup$

The Point Instance node :

has been replaced with the Instance on Points node in Version 3.0 :

As you can see, it offers a lot more features. Most notably, it supports fields and the instanciation of geometry directly, so you don't need to instantiate an existing object.

You need to upgrade to at least Version 3.0 in order to use this node.
