scatterObj is for distributing objects across any poly surface, this script is very easy to use and it help you scatter objects quickly. it uses the surface vertex to spread the objects on, so if you want more objects on the surface you need to increase its poly count and vice versa. and it give you random rotation and scale so you don't get identical trees, grass, hair or what ever you are using.
Important:
1) Make sure that your source geometry "tree" pivot point is in the right position.
2) Select the surface first and then select the object you want it to be scattered last.
