@@Ar7ific1al thanks for being considerate;) however both are great, so it's totally up to you. What's best for you. My small endeavor wouldn't be possible without Blender Market though, that's thanks to community and visibility they provide to my tools. So perhaps them;)

Hi, it's an asset so you'll need to set blend file as asset library. You can follow these steps: blendermarket.com/products/laces-generator/docs

@@mateodemarchi3540 most probably it could be UV map name. This tool needs a default Blender name for UV to work which is "UVMap". If that wouldn't solve it please contact me via email, send screens to nodesinteractive@gmail.com

@beltmaker sent, thanks

Hi, BeltMakerAuto will adjust it's length so it will follow the curve. In future updates BeltMakerAuto will be the main asset and this older BeltMaker will become a legacy feature. So in short BeltMakerAuto is the more flexible faster option.

I do have circural belts in backlog for future updates, for now you'd need to do it by hand. However I believe it's now much easier with new snapping features. See them here: ruclips.net/video/GR4XRqB8lPk/видео.html

Hmm, is the scale of the object =1 in the N panel? You could also try reseting FaceSets on the model (Face Set From Visible). I just double checked with Blender 4.3.1 and tool works. Does it also not work if you try it on a primitive in a new scene? Please contact me at nodesinteractive@gmail.com if it still wouldn't work.

Hi, sure, Retopo Planes and Tear Painter have manuals available at nodesinteractive.com

@@henryvasquez1814 Hi, sorry to hear that. If you'd have time you could send me some screens with use case you're dealing with. Perhaps I could help or better understand what's needed for the sake of future updates. You can email me at nodesinteractive@gmail.com

hey, just choose "append" option, not "append and reuse". "append and reuse" drops assets into scene as instances - which could result in tool being broken if for example you'd apply gsurface modifier and would try to drop another gsurface asset into the scene. those are details, but it's just safer to set import method to "append" for this tool.

Hi, yes, you can change belt type to flat and change both ends of the belt to be square. Textures and the knot however you'd need to do by hand there is no automation for those. So there's always a question if not to make such mesh just by using curve. Yet the snapping feature that comes with BeltMaker is pretty neat.

Hi, please check chapter of this video about disappearing mesh, I wonder if that could be it.

@@beltmaker im so dumb, yeah that worked out thank you

@@Tarnishedartist np that gave me an idea for an update. With version 1.1 such things won't happen.

Any mesh with proper UVs will be OK.

@@beltmaker ya esta comprado :D . consulta; como haces para que aparezca de diferentes colores? haría falta que actives el historial del ratón

@@Camka-1993 Material preview mode;) Please contact me via email which you can find in the description of this channel. That's a prefered way of supporting users for me.

Hi, yes you'd need to apply the modifier, unless you'd only need to parent the belt to some part of mesh and there wouldn't be any deformation.

Hi, yes - just make sure that it has Blender's default UV name which is "UVMap" and it will work.

Yes, it's important though to avoid sewing more than two patterns to one side. That would confuse this tool. Pretty much like one edge can have only two faces connected otherwise normals will go crazy - if you lets say have three quads meet at one edge. I will be releasing some vids showcasing capabilities of this tool asap. I know it's lengthy answer to a simple question, just wanted make clear those technical aspects.

Hi, please contact me via e-mail or BlenderMarket so it’ll be easier to give feedback with screens and such. And first, make sure that you’re using Blender 4.0 or higher. You can find e-mail in bio of this channel.

It is a plan for the future, however the system is very complex and with more intricate patterns gets even more tricky so for it to be reliable the planes are easiest and most flexible way to go. I think calling it most time consuming is unfair compared to other solutions;) Anyways an update is in the works, will share some more info about it asap.

@@beltmaker Oh of course, I didn't mean that your addon's workflow is the most time consuming, I meant that building the plane mesh is the most time consuming part in the addon, so targeting it would like quadruple the value of the addon :) Glad to hear about the update! Thanks for your hard work and making the industry a better place <3

@@onewayroad3765 I will think about it;)

Hi, as long as the clothing has UVs it will work. If you can create UVs that will be in the shape of the patterns similarly to MD, you're good to go.

Hi, Retopo Planes is designed to work with simulated garments that have UVs in the shape of patterns. So as long as the mesh has UVs it will work either if it's from MD or any other software, however this tool is designed for clothes, so if you're also asking if it's good for other types of objects like props etc. - for that I would think of other solutions like Retopoflow and such, but you can of course prove me wrong.

yep

@@TemporaryVoid are they done with the geometry nodes essential hair assets from Blender?

@@beltmaker nope ='(

@@beltmaker but it wouldn't be hard to manually deform or even use a modifier in my case to be honest

@beltmaker will it work if make my hair using this geometry node method : ruclips.net/video/-TLtkEYp5DU/видео.html ?

@@AntonSavoderov Hey, make sure you're using Blender 4.0+ For support contact me via email nodesinteractive@gmail.com
