Hi
I really want to try this add-on, but when I install it. The blender console states Modules Installed from …zip to …\2.76\scripts\addons but I cannot find it in the add-on list. I’m running on Win 10 and blender 2.76. I have the PyNum installed
what am I missing?

A nice add-on! I tried it for very little works, and it was really helpful! thank you Alessandro!!!

Hi Aaltje, this should be the right procedure:
. go to User Preferences tab add-on
. click on “Install from File…” on the bottom
. select the zip file that you downloaded from github

is this the procedure that you followed?

@AlexMcKonst: really cool tests!!! I’m inserting in the wiki also some images from the community. If you like the idea, maybe I can insert also some of yours, with proper credits, of course.

@Peak: that video was really interesting. As also Burnin suggested I’m considering to use UV mapping for roughly detect the right orientation of the component for every face. Maybe inserting also an option for switching individuals faces. It is really in my ToDo list, I just need to find the time.

@The general: I’m happy to have kept you on Blender

AlexMcKonst · October 29, 2015, 5:08am

I’ll be very happy.:yes:

Thank you Alessandro, This addon is simply amazing! I’m patiently waiting for a tessellation mode based on UV’s Keep up the good work!

Hi everybody, waiting for more advanced tools, I introduce a new operator “Rotate Faces” that allows you to rotate the selected faces and immediately update the tessellated meshes. Hope that you find it useful.
For using “Rotate Faces” you must select the base object and select in edit mode the faces to rotate.

Cheers

thanks for update, but the current init.py is not a valid python source. Since it writes as


 "author": "Alessandro Zomparelli (Co-de-iT)",
&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt; HEAD
 "version": (0, 2),
=======
 "version": (0, 2, 1),
