Blender addon for quad remeshing

jremesh-tools's Issues

Mac: "Path to Instant Meshes is missing" - wrong error message?

I installed Instant Meshes and the plugin, where I also added the path to instant meshes as can be seen in the screenshot. However, when I click on "remesh", i get the error that that very path is missing (again see screenshot).

I use Blender 3.6.6 (pre release). – Any idea what the problem is?

Using this with blender compiled for python

I was going through the code, i was wondering if this can be used on python directly? or is this made for working with Blender only?

permission denied

Im getting this when I pick the directory of "Instant Meshes Application" in addons JRemesh: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Users/... directory

Error on install

Hello Jayanam, I get an error on install.

(I'm on a mac with macOS)

Suggestion: GuideLines?

I was hopeful there was a way to also select a set of guidelines from a GreasePencil object.
Or maybe there's a way that opens the instance of InstantMeshes so you can put guidelines, so it handles the steps of export and import?
Maybe even just set the symmetry axis so it gets one guideline down the middle.
[My guess is neither was not possible, or maybe grease pencil was only annotations at the time you first build this bridging addon.]

Found CLI --help

Options:
-o, --output Writes to the specified PLY/OBJ output file in batch mode
-t, --threads Number of threads used for parallel computations
-d, --deterministic Prefer (slower) deterministic algorithms
-c, --crease Dihedral angle threshold for creases
-S, --smooth Number of smoothing & ray tracing reprojection steps (default: 2)
-D, --dominant Generate a tri/quad dominant mesh instead of a pure tri/quad mesh
-i, --intrinsic Intrinsic mode (extrinsic is the default)
-b, --boundaries Align to boundaries (only applies when the mesh is not closed)
-r, --rosy Specifies the orientation symmetry type (2, 4, or 6)
-p, --posy Specifies the position symmetry type (4 or 6)
-s, --scale Desired world space length of edges in the output
-f, --faces Desired face count of the output mesh
-v, --vertices Desired vertex count of the output mesh
-C, --compat Compatibility mode to load snapshots from old software versions
-k, --knn Point cloud mode: number of adjacent points to consider
-F, --fullscreen Open a full-screen window
-h, --help Display this message

Well I guess there's not way currently to send guide curls from the command line?!

Thank you for your amazing addons

JRemesh: Path to Instant Meshes is missing.

I get this error using Blender on MacOS. I put the correct path to the application "Instant Remesh" and have tried different routes thinking it was a permissions issue, but nothing has worked.

Quadriflow on blender 3.1 linux doesn't seem to do anything.

I've recently installed this addon and been testing it on linux with what I believe is the latest version of blender (3.1.2).

I've downloaded the linux version of instant meshes and pointed it to the appropriate path and that works as expected. Not being happy with the generated topology for a UV sphere on UV sphere boolean intersection I decided to try Quadriflow, and while it generates a new mesh and hides the old one, it does not appear to have actually applied any algorithm - the resulting mesh has the same geometry as the source mesh, including triangles and ngons.

Python error code!

Im using windows and blender 4.0, but im not sure i picked the right file for instant meshes
i found instant meshses.exe but still same error shows up

All seams, creases and UV's are lost

You'd want to keep these before remeshing because recreating them on a high poly is a bit of a nightmare. Also you lose the ability to stack UV islands on a simple example like a cube. May not be possible given you probably have to export to fbx for the tool and back, but in that case I wonder if the mesh data can be transferred somehow.

I get an error when trying to use the Blender Quadriflow option

TypeError: Converting py args to operator properties: : keyword "preserve_paint_mask" unrecognized

Python: Traceback (most recent call last):

ret = _op_call(self.idname_py(), kw)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Any help would be great :-)

Copyright

Does it cause problems with copyright when I use it in my projects?

Getting a python error.

I have no idea what this means but this is the error I'm getting. I'm on blender 3.3.1
