Realistic cables in a few clicks

Wireless add-on helps you to create cables and edit them with confidence in a non-destructive way.

I have built it because I had to model cables quite often and I found myself doing the same tasks over and over again. And when this happens, I do like Raymond Hettinger: “There must be a better way!”

I have tried to wrap-up all the process so it can be done from the tools shelf very easy and quick and you can swap the prebuilt types of plugs within seconds.

Update Version 0.6.6

  • Now you can add your custom cable parts and plugs and re-use them as many times you want.
  • You can export and import custom parts to the library
  • More than 60 heads and 11 cable types.

Check out Wireless add-on on Blender Market

Here is a video explaining the basic functionality:

Thanks, Alex

And while adding new parts some of them just don’t want to get right for the first time :sob:

Here are the plugs available at the moment.We have asked you friends what would you like to see and here are your answers taking shape.
But you can also model your own parts and add them to the library with a couple of clicks.

What would you create?

Actually you’re right, @zcaalock the LAN cable uses at the moment vertex colour and not yet the proper colours are assigned to each wire.
