Great job, this software are really good ! Thanks to share your work.

Thank you very much. Works great.

Hi, on my system (MacOS 10.10.5 and blender 2.77a):
1.
addon install with no error
2.
set the path for Instatant Meshes: inside the .app folder_
“//…/…/…/…/…/…/Applications/blender/Instant Meshes.app/Contents/MacOS/Instant Meshes”
3.
launch the add on, via “space-search-instantmesher”, it begins to write the temporary file, arrives to 3,5 mb and hangs.
Blender becomes irresponsive (see screenshot) as long as I do force quit for instant mesher app.
4.
if I launch “remesher” directly form the topology panel, it works, in a bad way (i.e. with the wrong settings), but it works.
5. manually exporting and launch in instant mesher app works as expected.retopology tab.pdf (93.6 KB)

Addon looks great, but I have this problem on linux.

Does Instant Meshes only work with windows 64 bit? From what I can see there is only one download and it seems to be for 64 bit.

i suppose it is 64bit only then :confused:

OK, I installed on my 64 bit computer ,but instant meshes isn’t showing a mesh. Any idea why that is?

Edit:
Finally got it to work. I updated graphics driver and told it to use integrated graphics.

Thank you very much for the addon!, this is really a time saver.

By the way, does anyone know how to compile Sketch Retopo on Linux?. There are binaries for ubuntu 14 and 15, but not for 16 :frowning:

Here’s how I compiled Sketch Retopo on Ubuntu 16.04:

Get the source and extract it somewhere:

Delete contents of build dir if it exists. Go to build dir in the terminal. Change cmake configuration (using cmake-gui or whatever) to point to source and build dirs, then generate.

cmake-gui ..

Then

make

If you get an error about GL/glut.h you need to install glut development files:

sudo apt install freeglut3-dev

Really nice addon, teaLeaf :cool:

Hi! I get this problem in ubuntu 16.04
