Blender 2.8 Circle Array for Fast Carve : Python Development

The circle array is added to Fast Carve now, at least a first version. I show you the feature in this video and also how I implemented it with Python and VS Code.

The addon can be downloaded from here for free;

I lost it when you said you'd go for a bike ride and actually showed it :D I didn't expect that but it was fun to see. Also that bee gave me a second chuckle :D

I watched the radial array video and was thinking about just hopping into Max, Modo, or Maya.


I saw the link to this video in the comments.


I figured, a high quality video that has the script presented and an instant effect? Surely must be paid.


Addon is free.


People like you are the reason why this software is going to succeed someday. This is absolutely fantastic, thank you. It has miles and miles and miles to go before catching up to where 3DS Max and Maya are right now, but man, for a free software, that's exciting!

Great, great and one more great. I love Your

Fast Carve is constantly becoming more useful. I was wondering if at some point, you plan on creating one comprehensive training video that discusses the use of the addon in total to that point in development. This would be helpful to those of us that have not been following the progress of this addon from the beginning.

Thanks for the video. I love learning new Blender tips every day.

I am curious, how are you getting rid of your Item Count box after you finish with your array? I have 7 on my screen now that I can't get rid of haha.

Very cool . I am learning Blender 2.8, I could not work well with the older versions . spent time with max and others . But in my learning I found your videos and plugin . It has to be my forvorite .
Is there a easier way to update your plugin . Is there a in blender update option some place, or should i keep grabbing it from Git ? Just wondering as I have probably missed it

lel first try your plugin crashed my blender :D Thanks though! I'll see if I can get it to work. Crazy that there is no radial array modifier. Also constrained vertex movement compared to 3ds max leaves open for many wishes. But, so far, Blender gets easier to use with every day.

Hey Jayanam, i know this is random but im using your low poly kit for Unity and everytime i try to create a build it keeps saying "Handles does not exist in the current context" from the Conversationitem data script and "EditorGUILayout does not exist in the current context" from the Edge data script. Is there a way to fix this? thank you

Can you use an object to use as the pivot point center for rotation?

[Mcimby]

I thought that the new 3D cursor can have a rotation to.
Why doesn't it not copy the face normal when you are snapping it to the face?
Feels a bit like an odd behaviour for the 3D cursor.
(I'm still using blender 2.79 so I don't know much about the details in 2.8)

so 'on invoke' replaces 'invoke' for modal operators??

Hallo, ich bekomme leider immer eine Fehlermeldung, wenn ich versuche den circle-array anzuwenden.
